Baristas Cafe Bristol

Postby Coffee_Monkey » Thu Mar 18, 2010 5:48 pm

Just popped in to see my mate and customer George who owns/runs Baristas in Bristol and got some of his house blend to try at home, he made a cappuccino for me while I was there and it tasted superb! The beans are a blend of Monsooon Malabar, Sumatra Lintong and Brazil Santos and is recommended as ideal for milk based drinks and those who like a extra oomph to their espresso......I'll be grinding tonight and will post how it turns out :D

I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!
