I’m a coffee snob and I always struggle to find a good coffee wherever I go. At home I have my own Italian blend which I have drunk for many years and it has a rich flavour and strong coffee taste without the bitterness and so for me quality outweighs quantity.

So far on Jeju the coffee has been mediocre and expensive, mind you I did go to the CU convenience store and their coffee was surprisingly good and cheap. But yesterday I stumbled upon this little gem of a cafe with a very interesting decor and atmosphere, old 20’s and 30’s music playing in the background and the coffee was served up on a wooden platter in a lovely wee expresso cup and it was great.

I could have sat here all day just drinking coffee but alas I would have been too hyper and climbing the walls for days, I had finally struck gold….. black coffee gold that is……

A full flavour, not bitter and with a viscosity that allowed you to extract every part of what it had to offer, the taste flowing around from taste bud to taste bud……. Perfect.

One more day here and I’ll make sure I have one more coffee before I go.
