Kopikohlie

Despite of having heard of Kopikohlie for years, and tried their roasted beans in other coffee shops, I've never gotten the chance to visit the coffee shop on my own. The location in google maps is pretty accurate, it is located near the main road, but you do have to turn to a smaller/complex like road. Parking space for cars is quite limitted as it is in a housing area, probably only fit 2 cars, but plenty of space for motorcycles. 

For my first visit, I ordered their filter coffee with lembang natural beans, and their eskopsu. First for the filter coffee, Rp 28K, I was recommended Lembang Natural by the barista/owner as I was looking for a fruity taste note. The taste is similar to a Gunung Halu bean, very fruity with jackfruit taste notes, very light with a bit of syrupi texture, and a clean finish, with light bitterness. Overall its a great cup of filtered coffee. 

For the eskopsu, Rp 20K, the texture is quite unique. The creamyness of the milk is quite strong, making the whole drink quite viscous, but still enjoyable. The balance of the milk, coffee, and brown sugar is well balance, comparable or even better than well-known eskopsu brand.  

The staff is very friendly and could easily help you with any questions or recommendations. I was directly showned what filter beans that they have for that day, and the barista gave me a personal recommendation based on my preference. 

The place itself is quite spacious, despite of being a home based coffee shop. There is a spacious place next to the cashier for working and hanging out, but it is mostly outdoor area. In short, this place feels very homey and comfortable.
