Halo 👋 fellow lomathusiasts (long-mac-enthusiasts). Anniversaries don’t come along all that often and today the blokes were delighted to celebrate one whole year since their inaugural brew review. Oh, how far the blokes have come. Tears of joy, pain, grit, and some amazing brews along the way. Although they present a united front, the fruits of fame and glory have challenged the blokes’ relationships with each other and, indeed, themselves. Nonetheless, here they stand; mighty and enduring. Today the blokes paid a visit to Halo.
Vibes 🍃- Halo Espresso sits proudly in the newfound restaurant and coffee hotspot of South Perth. Distracted admittedly by the bacon-egg burger combo on the street corner, the blokes persevered and made their way into this cosy establishment. Plenty of indoor seating, creative wall decoration, very friendly staff, wicked cold drip running, and a bushy Christmas tree (no presents for the blokes underneath☹).
Taste 👅 – A familiar Colombian/Brazilian/Indian blend from Melbourne based ‘Locale Coffee Roasters’ that we have seen gaining popularity as of recent. Strong notes of dark chocolate, caramel and praline which is generally your go to definition of a ‘crowd pleaser’ coffee. Unfortunately, didn’t have any ‘wow factor’ to make it super special, but props to the team for running it extremely well – best run of this blend we have had!
Temperature 🌡 – In true ‘Halo’ fashion, Master Chief would be very happy today.
Glass Size 📏 – Wouldn’t change it, wouldn’t mess with it, wouldn’t touch it
Froth 🥛 - Was like the guy she says not to worry about (very dashing in other words).
General Appearance/Consistency 🤩 – Say ‘Halo’ to 4 perfectly copied lmacs.
The great English poet, Stormzy once said “One year down, the rest of our lives to go” The only thing we can say is simply, thank you. One year ago we started our first review and 365 days, 44 reviews, infinite good times and the same four legendary blokes later… here we are. To Halo, it was fitting we got to share this heart-warming and wholesome moment with a heart-warming and wholesome Lac.
