Boston Tea Party (Bristol)





The next entry from Bristol is Boston Tea Party. Initially, we saw BTP in the South West Independent Coffee Guide that we read in Bristol Coffee House. The cost here was noticeably better, at £2.50 for a 12oz cup. While the barrister was at work, he passionately informed Ally of the origin and production method of the filter coffee she had ordered, coming from Ethiopia. Apparently it had a very strong strawberry tang (he wasn't wrong!). His passion towards the beans genuinely excited us, and we definitely weren't disappointed. He passed over a great looking latte with an impressive piece of art that I unfortunately didn't get a photo of because it was in a takeaway cup.

The coffee was outstanding! Throughout the entire cup, the coffee stood out and wasn't lost in a sea of milk. The milk was spot on, with a delightfully creamy foam topping. The temperature was also just right,I truly enjoyed every mouthful, and am now a bit concerned that it can only be downhill from here...

Overall I'd give this coffee a 4.5/5. I have to allow some wriggle room for the huge number of coffees I have left to experience for the rest of this trip. This will definitely take some topping.
