Roasting Bar. One of the things that makes us unique is that all our roasting happens in these four Aillio Bullet R1 roasters behind the same bar where serve drinks at our Strathcona location.

We’ve made this an extremely flexible space where we roast coffee, serve drinks, fulfill online orders, make waffles from scratch, prep seasonal drink syrups, and bottle our RTD coffees. Plus there’s plenty of roasting capacity to supply our other location and a roster of wholesale clients.

See you there!

We’re featuring two familiar but unexpected ingredients from Madagascar right now.

Only in Mount Pleasant, Spice Study Soda: Madagascar True Cinnamon. Most cinnamon in North America is not actually cinnamon but the related cassis, so this soda is a chance to taste real cinnamon from an unexpected origin.

Only in Strathcona, Vanilla Bean Flat White: Madagascar Pompona Vanilla. Pompona is a less common variety of vanilla that grows huge vanilla pods, maybe four times the size of a typical vanilla bean (see photo for size comparison with two other varieties). The flavour is a rich vanilla ice cream kind of flavour, incredible when it’s in balance with a good coffee.
