12 oz. Single Origin Pour-Over Coffee

This week's special, at Square One Coffee House, is a 12oz Single Origin Pour-Over Cup of Coffee, for the price of a regular small house coffee.

For today's sample. I chose Guatemalan as my Single Origin. I had read that it has a 'subtle' caramel finish to it.

A Pour-over is a special way of brewing. Similar, but NOT the same as a Melita of yesteryear. The 'machine' holds up to four different stations. Each station brews ONE cup at a time. From start to finish, roughly 5 minutes. It is worth the wait.

The coffee comes out SO smooth. ANY acidity is all but canceled out. This coffee is like silk. And talk about DELICIOUS!!! Totally Yummy! Square One had their machine published in a magazine not long ago. Today I got to see it in action. Simply amazing! No need for cream or sugar. The Guatemalan beans are already properly roasted, and are a VERY smooth finish. or flavor. Today's cup of coffee would be rated 5 stars!

Add to this a Cappuccino Muffin, and it's the ultimate "Continental Breakfast". Normally, I would have the Double Chocolate Chip Muffin, but I saw the Cappuccino Muffin, and decided to try something new.

No disappointments here, as Square One is an Organic, Single Source coffee roaster. They look after 'the little guy'. If you're ever in Lancaster PA, you'll find them downtown at 145 North Duke Street. They are on FaceBook, and have a website where you can see, AND PURCHASE, all the products they offer. Celebrating their 10th Anniversary this month means they must (and ARE) doing it right!
