Always trust your gut when you are getting coffee. In this case, this cafe was not my vibe. It was too hipster. I knew it going in - it had the same feeling that I had entering Stepwise... i.e., a mistake. I guess the pourover was good. I am a believer in pour overs being a scam, which the man at Anthology proudly told me over the phone, but this lady took her time and made a presentable cup. Nothing mind-boggling, but the coffee was in itself not mind-boggling. Warm, comfortable, light. Good coffee. I cannot recall more than that.
One thing I noticed here was that there was a grainy-ness to the coffee. I experienced the same with the Hyperion / Honduras / Pedro Zuniga / Washed from January. When ground, it kicks up a lot of white grounds. I think those are the ones adding the weird flavor. I don't enjoy that flavor.
