EXCELSA

I’m not a coffee connoisseur by any means, but I do love coffee and exploring different coffee shops and new flavors. I’m definitely a Starbucks girl at heart — but I also love trying new things, and this place completely impressed me. This is truly not your average cup of coffee — honestly, even better. The coffee was incredibly smooth and not bitter like many regular coffee drinks can be. I usually have to add a lot of sugar, but with this one I could actually drink it as is because it tasted delicious on its own. I still added a little since I prefer my coffee on the sweeter side, but I found myself needing way less than usual — which is great since I try to watch my sugar intake! You can really taste the quality of the exotic beans, and it’s pretty cool knowing they’re the first of their kind here in the States using these beans. We also had the chance to meet the owner, Michael, who was so welcoming. He gave my friend and me a tour and shared his story about how he got into the coffee industry and the journey behind their beans. Such a great experience overall — definitely coming back!
