I had my first real single origin espresso yesterday courtesy of the folks over at Elysian. I was told I would be given something “special”. Not knowing what I was getting, I was impressed with the shot when Matti handed it to me. Beautiful balance across the shot. Lots of fruit in the little ACF demitasse. I thought it might have been a tweaked blend that they had running. But then I’m shown the bag. It was Novo’s Adado Espresso. Holy crap guys, it was good. Then I had a short americano to accompany my trip to the liquor store up the hill and all you could smell were those Kettle Valley Organic Blueberry bars… Very, very good stuff.
Also, I saw Danny Howells, one of my all-time favorite DJs, last night at Celebrities. If you are at all interested in seeing an amazing house DJ play a show, check him out.
