Customer reviews★★★★★定期的に利用してます。エクアドル深煎りは絶品ですよ。これに奮発してグラインダー上位クラス買いましたが正解でした。豆のポテンシャルが発揮されて更にリピ確定です。値上げにもめげず💪
★★★★★ここのコーヒー豆はおいしい。いくつか都内のスペシャルティコーヒーを飲んだけど個人的には1番好き。千葉の水は硬度が高くえぐみが出やすいです。お湯の温度と水の硬度を調整するとすごくおいしい。おいしいコーヒーを飲みたい人は試しましょう。ちなみにわたしが好きなのはイルガチェフ ナチュラルです。ご参考でした。
★★★★★オーガニックで最高に美味しい珈琲豆が購入できます。お勧めです☕
★★★★★オーガニックに力を入れて豆を仕入れられてます。 初めは、コーヒーの淹れ方、機材の購入すらわからなかった状態で伺わせてもらいました。 何もわからなかった僕に親切に教えて頂き、とても助かりました。 ここの豆で作るコーヒーはとても美味しいです。 これからもよろしくお願いします😊
★★★★★なんて言うんでしょう、小規模の事務所がずらっと並んだ市場のような(市場では無い)エリアの一角に店舗が。 妻が妊娠中からここのデカフェコーヒーを飲んでおり大変気に入っております。 直売所があると言うことで初めて行ってみました。 コーヒーの焙煎の良い香りが、、、 またお邪魔します
★★★★★20201207 再訪 早々に、2回目の訪問です。 今回は、有給休暇を頂いたので、 このチャンスで、珈琲豆追加購入です。 今回は、前回購入していない種類2種類を購入。 これで、デカフェ以外はコンプリートです。 サンプルで、デカフェも頂きました。 充実のコーヒーライフが過ごせます。 ありがとうございます。 20201203 初訪問 月曜日と木曜日に直売されているとの情報をインスタで拝見して、訪問しました。 焙煎所の付近は、珈琲の香りがしていい匂いです。初めて訪問しましたが、焙煎したての珈琲豆を購入出来て大満足です。 平日のみの販売の為、なかなか伺う事が難しいですが、また伺います。
