- r/pourover · 61↑ · This stuff is wild - Axil (Melbourne AUS) Granja Paraiso 92
Axil is one of my favourite roasters for filter coffee. I bought their limited edition Gesha last month and it was great.
- r/Coffee · 42↑ · Melbourne's "Magic" coffee.
...n. Only joking. She suggested a "Magic" coffee. I don't know exactly what is in one these but they're are a stronger than a cappuccino and taste rather noice. This all happened at Axil in Hawthorn and is also served at some other established cafe's. It's honestly my type of coffee, however, its name gets mixed react
- r/Coffee · 25↑ · Coffee drinkers of Australia, where are you buying your beans?
At work, we get coffee from Sensory Lab, and at home I get Atomica. Both are excellent. Seven Seeds is also highly recommended. I haven't ordered beans from Axil but I've had breakfast there a few times, and the coffee was excellent, as was the food and service.
