DARK ARTS COFFEE

Good morning everybody. Hope all of you had a great weekend and are stoked for a new week. September is rolling on and so does the specialty coffee here in Malmö. The coffee of this week in the month of English coffee roasters is...

Dark arts coffee

Dark Arts Coffee is a coffee roastery started by friends in East London with twisted visions of using alchemy to combine fire, water and magic beans into a divine elixir. They had visions of funnelling the profits into a cult based on our love of the occult, bikes and all things unholy.

However, none of that worked out and now they are sick to death of bullies calling Dark Arts - ‘that harry potter coffee’. And roastery isn’t even a word.

As a result, instead, they have had to focus on importing the best beans from all over the world and roasting them until they taste good as a brown drink.

GOOD LIFE COFFEE

July went by fast and now it is time to welcome August and the coffee of this week!

The coffee and roastery is GOOD LIFE COFFEE and they are based in Helsingfors, Finland. Their idea of good coffee is simple: carefully selected high­grade beans combined with precise procedures and a no­bullshit take on roasting and brewing. Instead of a well trimmed romantic re­enactment of the artesian 19th century, their coffee is bang on the now. Honest and uncompromising. The roasting profiles are build according to each bean to get the most out of the quality. Analytical, diligent and passionate, down to the nitty gritty. The way they see it, life’s too short for weak coffee.
