Summary: Great coffee!! Awesome space!!! Ideal coffee rocks! It is located in Toronto, Canada and quite the find. I bought several bags of coffee beans to try and first up is Around The World. This coffee is, in my opinion, a coffee that will appeal to everyone. It is a blend of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, El Salvador (lightly roasted) and dark Sumatran beans. It will tantalize all your taste buds! The dark Sumatra ensures that the ending notes do not fall flat. The lighter roast will captivate your interest and the richness of the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe will ensure that you will come back for more. I tasted chocolate and almonds with a slightly smokey edge. I will definitely get this coffee again!
Danny lives within walking distance of Ideal Coffee. It was fun meeting him there. It is a small, warm and friendly place where seating is limited. I think it is a place where you come in from the cold and get a cup to go. It really is all about great coffee! We sat inside and each ordered a coffee drink. Danny had their coffee of the day and I had the most flavorful Macchiato I have ever had.
Lindsey was very helpful and friendly!
Couldn't resist taking this picture
Today's batch of roasted coffee
Overall score: 9
* Ideal Coffee roasts small amounts of beans and sells it within one day - you'll never get stale beans here!!!
