Tim Wendelboe is more than just a café — it’s a calling card of the Norwegian coffee approach: precision, lightness, and attention to detail. The owner, a world barista champion, travels personally to plantations to select the beans. Don’t miss the Finca Tamana Espresso — rich and clean in flavor, showcasing what the Scandinavian coffee school is all about. The interior is simple yet cozy, with knowledgeable staff and beans available to take home.
Finca Tamana Espresso is the star here — sourced directly from a Colombian farm. The taste is clean, sweet, with fruity notes. The entire café is a showcase of Nordic-style specialty coffee: light filter brews, high acidity, and minimal bitterness.
