Guest Coffee (Edinburgh)

Our current guest coffee is via Edinburgh’s newest coffee roaster Carter.

There were a few coffees to choose from but we really enjoyed Sipi, their Ugandan (anaerobic natural) and their natural lot out of Los Nogales, El Salvador.

Both coffees are superb brewed for filter, but we really enjoy the Ugandan brewed as an espresso - the anaerobic process giving it a viscous and creamy texture that especially holds its own with milk.

Both are available in retail bags to take home and we are also brewing up both coffees on the bar.
