NEW FEATURE ROASTER: COFFEE WALLAS
VERY excited to bring in Coffee Wallas to our line up of feature roasters at Laneway. "Coffee Wallas" is a play on the term "Chaiwalla" which refers to a tea vendor in India. This loosely translates to "People of Tea" and our new friends at Coffee Wallas are certainly "People of Coffee". They specialize in highlighting coffees from Asia, a huge region within the coffee industry that tends to get overlooked in terms of specialty coffee!
Here's some photos of us cupping the samples the folks at Coffee Wallas sent to us. ALL their coffees were exceptional, but as a team we picked our two faves that we are very thrilled to share with you now on the shelves and pour over menu at Laneway!
Laos, Naga Gesha : such a lovely coffee, super well suited to a pour over, this coffee is tea-like, comforting and I experience a beautiful aroma of orange blossom.
China, Gao Natural : this coffee blew us away with how sweet we perceived it!! Reminded us of sweet red apple and candied pineapple. Again, SO SWEET and juicy.
