The room
Six stools at the counter, a bench under the window, and a roaster the size of a washing machine in the back room. On Tuesdays the whole of Alder Row smells of it.
Twelve kilos a week. That’s all of it.
We buy from four farms and one co-op, roast a little at a time, and sell most of it across this counter. The cups are old jadeite mugs from a diner that closed down the road: heavy, a few of them chipped, and still the best thing to drink from. So we still pour into jadeite.
