Must say I haven’t come across that one guys, so thanks for letting me know, If I’m ever at Ikea and not in the mood for Swedish meatballs and lingonberry jam I’ll have to go take a look.

Happened to go past Peckish Cafe in Osbourne Park (on the street directly behind Ikea) today, and noticed that they were using Fiori (actually, it’s hard to miss that they’re Fiori coffee users). So we stopped and had lunch there.

We quite liked what we tasted. The girl who pulled our espressos didn’t make them long and watery like you so often get. The shots were a reasonable length, not bitter and had some nice syrupiness (is this even a word?). The blend seemed quite nicely balanced. That was our first taste of Fiori, and we concur – good stuff!! And it also looks as though we’ve got another cafe to add to our list. YAY!

Sounds great. Hadn’t heard of them until you mentioned them in your post before, so thanks. Will have to try their blend sometime and we’ll be keeping an eye out for Fiori coffee around the traps.

Oh and Gretchen, thanks for stopping by, and thanks for your nice compliments. Although I don’t know a lot about Peruvian coffee, I have tried a number of different beans from there before, mainly in blends. Next time I do so I’ll be sure to pay more attention :)

Grendel, three words… bring it on ! :) Although I’m pretty sure there is enough room in this town for the both of us. Say hi to Kamran for me, and let him know the new Mohka blend is spot on. If he hasn’t read it here already…

Ran into your blog today…I have an extraordinary obsession with coffee and just wanted to say these pictures are gorgeous. I visited a coffee shop in Long Beach, CA who roasted their own beans. Beautiful. Here in Peru, it is said we have some of the best coffee beans – the majority exported though. That to say, should you have the opportunity, it is worth a try.

Hey Jerry, drop them an email and try your luck, you never know :) Although reason dictates that freshly/locally roasted coffee will beat out almost anything imported, simply because of the strain that shipping puts on the beans. Still, if your need is great then it’s not a bad option.

Thanks for stopping by.
