Coffee worth
slowing down for.

We source single-origin greens direct from farmers across Ethiopia, Kenya and Colombia — then roast them in tiny batches on a 1960s Probat in the heart of Zamalek.

The craft

Every batch is roasted
by hand, by name.

No automation, no shortcuts. Our head roaster Karim profiles each origin across a dozen test roasts before it ever reaches the bar — chasing the exact moment a Guji develops its jasmine top-note without tipping into bitterness.

Green coffee is bought at 2–3× commodity price, paid direct to the co-ops. Traceable to the wet mill. Roasted the week you drink it, never sooner.

"The oat cardamom latte ruined every other café for me. And the beans I take home actually taste like the notes on the card."

"Best pour-over in Cairo, hands down. The staff remember your order and actually know the farms behind each roast."

"I work from the slow bar three mornings a week. Quiet, beautiful, and the sourdough is worth the trip alone."
