Seoul's Hidden Gem: A Master Barista's Sensory Sanctuary

Founded by the illustrious Sang-ho Park, a double UK champion in Brewers Cup (2013) and Coffee in Good Spirits (2015), this specialty coffee haven is a testament to his profound expertise. Formerly Head of Quality at East-London's Square Mile Coffee Roasters, Park, armed with a Master's in Sensory Science, meticulously curates a selection of high-end, rare coffee varieties.

His vision focuses on offering exquisite Geishas from origins like Colombia and Costa Rica, embodying a scientific pursuit of unparalleled flavor and quality.Tucked away in a converted residential building in Seoul Forest, its "hidden gem" allure is amplified by the absence of a visible sign. Inside, the first floor buzzes with the craft of roasting and brewing, openly inviting observation. Each cup is accompanied by a detailed sheet, fostering customer education, while home brewers benefit from comprehensive online recipes.

Distinctive signature lattes, like the traditional Korean Mugwort (Ssuk) and an indulgent Iced Peanut Butter, complement the experience. The second floor's bar seating and rooftop offer serene views of Seoul Forest, completing a truly immersive coffee journey.
