-Coffee trip vlog- Had the best few days catching up with homies and visiting some of the most knowledgeable coffee professionals in the country. Can’t thank @robilambie and @aerodepress enough for their time and elite hangs. I’ve got a lot of inspiration and some immense coffees to make videos with. Send all of your attention to @cairngormcoffeeco and @amuletamuletamuletamuletamulet 👂 @deanjohnsongs #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #vlog #fyp

@horshamcoffee Costa Rica 🇨🇷 La Karola Natural Geisha Story time for a longer video today! I’ve been soooo lucky to have met so many cool people through music. Some of those people ended up in the coffee world too. @jordspiers used to have a coffee shop on my street in Glasgow, but before that I opened for his band, who I used to buy tickets to go and see before that. He sent up some coffees that’s I was so buzzing to try out. First of those is the Geisha on the @orea.uk Z1, and boi was it cleeeeeaan. Thanks so much for sending these up - can’t wait to try them both in a bunch of ways! 👂 @_health_ #specialty #coffee #specialtycoffee #scotland #england #music #geisha #natural #barista #homebarista #coffeeroaster #roaster #health #floodofred #orea #z1 #fyp #pourover #musicscene

@the_source_coffee_roasters Don Alexis Thermic Natural Costa Rica 🇨🇷 This coffee was skillfully utilised by Matteo Pavoni during the 2024 National Italian Barista Competitions, securing an impressive 2nd place. Notes of black plum, strawberry, mango, red grapes, honey and cacao aftertaste, yoghurt-like acidity, dense body, excellent balance, clean cup, complex. FERMENTATION PROCESS 1. Fruit picking. 2. The whole cherries are rolled in a black plastic to ferment inside the greenhouse or solar dryer. Particular microbes resist the temperature of 40-45C fermenting each batch at a constant temperature.The exposure to the heat starts to breakdown the natural sugars of the coffee cherries, partially caramelizing them. 3. Sun dried for approximately 30 days. 4. Stored in parchment until preparation for export. What a beautiful coffee 👏 👂 @thehuddog #specialty #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #homebarista #coffeescene #natural #pourover #costarica #fermented #fermentation #aerobic #natural #donalexis #scotland #fyp

@scenerycoffeeroasters Burundi Kibingo ‘Intenso’ Espresso Fruit Pastilles, Passionfruit, Riesling Yeast inoculated This was great on espresso for various milk drinks. It changed a lot depending on the brew method, and was fun dialling in to the various brews. This is the best Burundi I’ve had by a long way, but I think that’s more to do with the processing than the geography. 👂 @xavierruddofficial #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #flatwhite #fyp

I went to visit the @haarcoffee roastery up here in Aberdeen. Had such a good chat about the Aberdeen and wider Scottish coffee scene. They’ve got some very cool stuff planned, and if you want to support an independent roaster that’s doing genuinely high quality specialty coffee, these are your guys. Keep the peepers peeled for news and events 👀 👂 @wutangclan #coffee #specialtycoffee #scotland #aberdeen #fyp

@carter__coffee Kenya Washed Kii AA (SL28, SL34) Raspberries, Butterscotch, Vanilla This was picked up as part of the Carter take over at @thirdcircle.coffee to celebrate East African coffee producers. Absolutely loved this on espresso, and have been enjoying it on pour over. I need to tweak the recipe a bit for the Z1, but it was really bright and silky regardless. Big fan of this one and love that roasters are coming up North. More companies do that please 🙏 👂 @aaronintervals #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #pourover #fyp

@cairngormcoffeeco Nelson Ramirez Honduras Honey Pomegranate, Wild Honey, Butterscotch This was a great coffee for milk drinks. More in the butterscotch area for me, but that worked well for the various drinks I was making. Been enjoying the Ramirez output lately and definitely want more Honduras coffee - any recs hit me up 🙏 👂 @mosesyoofeetrio #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #fyp #flatwhite

Stopped by @thirdcircle.coffee to check out the @carter__coffee takeover. Obviously missed them by 5 minutes 😂 Still had a chinwag and great pourover all the same. The music in the shop is always elite tier. Picked up a bag of the washed Kenya. Can’t wait to try it. 👂 @boniver #coffee #specialtycoffee #coffeshop #fyp #barista

@scenerycoffeeroasters Kibingo Espresso Burundi Yeast Inoculated Natural Tropical, strawberry, watermelon This is the best Burundi I’ve had personally. I’ve always found the naturals to be somewhat papery for lack of a better word. This yeast inoculation rocks. Really floral and aromatic with good body and clarity. 👂 @tigranhamasyan #coffee #specialtycoffee #pourover #barista #fyp

@module.roast M15 Columbia Heroes Gesha Mandarin, Magnolia, Nougat This was awesome. Really varied across the brew methods. A bit more complex than I was expecting but I like that in a coffee. More in the magnolia and nougat territory than mandarin. Definitely going to try more from this roaster. 👂 @aphextwin.afx #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #pourover #fyp

@zennor.coffee Shyira Rwanda 🇷🇼 Anoxic Natural Red bourbon Strawberry, Blackberry Fruit-tella This was a fun one to try across the various brew methods! I’ve landed on the conclusion the Zennor coffees are best made in-house, which is a testament to the high skill level of the baristas. Can’t wait to get back down the shop! 👂 @battlestheband #coffee #specialtycoffee #barista #pourover #fyp
