ESPRESSO CLUB - MERCHANT REVIEWS

When talking to Guangzhou coffee enthusiasts about boutique cafes, the Espresso Club is often mentioned. And when it comes to this store, its signature - iced drip coffee will be praised again. By 2017, the Espresso Club had been open for three years and was open until 1 a.m. every day, and was known as a "late-night canteen" among cafes in Guangzhou. Unfortunately, not long ago, the closing time of this store was changed to 10 p.m., and it is no longer a place to enjoy late-night hours. The Espresso Club uses home-roasted coffee beans and sells them in the store. The boss buys the green beans that meet his preferences in the season through a Taiwanese supplier, and then entrusts Heshan Meixiang Food Co., Ltd. to roast the green beans, usually using medium-dark roasting. There are three types of single coffee here: pour-over, siphon, and philharmonic pressing, and there are about nine types of coffee beans. As a produce, coffee beans vary in quality and quantity from season to season, so there is no fixed menu of single origin coffee in the store, and you have to look at the small blackboard of the day or ask the barista which ones you can taste. While coffee is subject to change, popular varieties from major producing regions, such as Yerga, Sidamour, Kenya and Mandheling, are on the menu. And if you want to drink the red label Geisha of Panama Emerald Manor, the king of the standard in recent years, you can only look at fate. A must-try when you come to the Espresso Club is the signature of the Espresso Club – Iced Drip Coffee. This time-consuming method takes 6 hours to complete the ice water drip extraction, and then it is sealed for 16-24 hours for light fermentation, and the finished product is accompanied by the fruity aroma of the coffee, as well as the aroma of wine. Some enthusiasts who have traveled around specialty coffee shops say that Espresso Club's iced drip coffee is among the best. In pursuit of quality, only six or seven cups of iced drip coffee can be made at a time, so if you want to drink the iced drip version of a certain coffee bean, you have to rely on luck. The owner of the Espresso Club studied interior design when he was a student, and he designed the store himself. From the façade to the interior of the store, you can feel the owner's care. As soon as you enter the store, you can see a large hanging painting made of coffee beans, and beautiful architectural pictures are hung on the walls and ceiling. The boss is still a cat control, and cat jewelry can be seen everywhere in the store. On the second floor of the café, in addition to five or six dining tables, there is also a cattery with two cats, and the overall environment is very comfortable. In addition to specialty coffee, American, Italian and homemade drinks are also available, and desserts are also popular.
