18 Grams Cafe - ♕♕♕♕♕

View Full Album

18 Grams has been developing their house coffee blend ever since its Soft Opening, and every time you had an Espresso or say Caffe Latte here ~ it tasted slightly different.  Some of these blends were intended more for novice drinkers, some are more Southern Italian styled with that heavy robusta kick, and one blend was even Salty ! Anyway their latest fine-tuned LUCKY DUCK blend (now known as Silly Monster) with correct machine settings to suit, is quite pretty spot on and balanced.

Note that this 18 Gram’s Lucky Duck or Silly Monster blend is not entirely the same as Glory Coffee's online Lucky Duck blend, as they were using that more as a base to build up upon, fine tune and then gradually find the right balance to suit its Cafe's Customers. So please clarify with them first, should you purchase their beans either on site, or from Glory's website!

This is a Dream Corner Cafe for Hong Kong
