The Perth long mac scene is a notoriously harsh and unforgiving business for even the most seasoned breviewer (brew-reviewer). With one bloke out of the game with general soreness this week, a monumental task fell upon a not-quite-complete band of blokes to pick up the slack and bring their best. As Aristotle wrote, “We are what we repeatedly do [brew]. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit”. Today the blokes visited Doric Street.
Vibes 🍃- Another brunch spot to add to Scarborough’s ever-growing list with a neat, family friendly café/kitchen smack bang in the middle of the burbs. Very welcoming and modern interior with low-lights, hanging plants and a lovely, exposed brick wall. If it was a gender reveal party, we wouldn’t have been sure of the gender given the amount of blue and pink around, nonetheless, producing a pretty good baby longmac.
Taste 👅 – Becoming more familiar with ‘Northbridge Coffee Roasters’ with Doric St brewing a neat little custom blend thanks to some growing regions in Ethiopia, Peru and PNG. We certainly got those ‘Peruvian’ notes of vanilla-sweetness balanced nicely with the medium body of the PNG. Certainly, was a ‘sweet’ cup and overall, a crowd-pleaser. No socks were blown away, yet everyone was happy.
Temperature 🌡 – Was so hot you could’ve fried an egg on it. In saying that, we would rather it hot than cold.
Glass Size 📏 - Ed Sheeran once sang ‘I’m in love with the shape of you.’ Call us Ed, cos we loved the shape of this glass.
Froth 🥛 - Lionel Messi like in the sense that it was absolutely prolific in front of goal. Magnifico
General Appearance/Consistency 🤩 - Froth consistency was the stuff of legends. Could’ve upped the anti on the latte art.
For the second consecutive week, we have another café named based off their location, yet instead of Mary, we now have Doric! Sweet and vanilla tones combine for their LMTU, similar to a single by Vance Joy. A community staple with a rock-solid reputation. Was definitely an explosion in the mouth, just maybe not an apocalyptic nuclear blast. Doric Street goes fine. Well done legends!
