Sheung Wan, Hong Kong｜Barista Jam

I went there for a light lunch, mainly for a hand drip coffee. I chose the Ethipian Yirgacheffe Hafursa G1 washed. It has a floral and lychee note which i like very much. The coffee was a bit acidic at first but finished on a sweet note on the taste buds. The coffee shop had good vibes with jazz music making you feel extremely relaxed. A bit annoying was the cigarette smoke whenever the door opened. Overall i will surely come back!

Barista Jam Review ☕ Experience the finest varieties of coffee in the world at Barista Jam in Sheung Wan. The entrance to their premises was not apparent, so I walked past it the first time. The dark grey exterior blended with the neighbouring environment. It looked charming now that I think of it. Upon entering the cafe, you're greeted with a mini outdoor seating area and a busy display window filled with coffee equipment. Stepping in, you immediately feel the ambience with the dim studio lighting and light jazz music playing in the background. Metal clanks from the coffee equipment, steam machine hissing, clinking glassware and clanking utensils. The overall atmosphere feels like an ASMR experience. [Steak and Mushroom Sandwich with Salad] by Barista Jam Fresh cherry tomatoes, sourdough, beef, red onion, brown mushrooms and mixed salad greens. The salad filled the plate and was dressed with my favourite dressing - balsamic vinegar; they were generous with it too. I love how it tingles my taste buds. The brown mushrooms and steak were seasoned lightly with mixed spices and had a smoky aroma. The mushrooms were earthy, light and chewy. The sourdough was soft and fluffy. It's a simple dish, but it did the job. [Jamaica Clifton Mount Estate Blue Mountain No.1 Hand-drip Coffee] by Barista Jam Exceptional quality, clean and velvety. Presented in a clear glass carafe, with a glass cup and information card. Points for the visuals. Easily one of the cleanest cups of coffee I've had. It's a Typica variety with tasting notes of clove, roasted almonds, vanilla, black currant, butter, and black tea. The cup was brewed perfectly, had a hint of sweetness, and was rich with nuanced flavours; it left me dreaming about my next trip. Overall, I highly recommend their hand-drip coffee. See you next time, Barista Jam! 📝 9/10✨ 📍 G/F, 97 Jervois St, Sheung Wan 💰 $157 ($75 sandwich + $82 set lunch specialty coffee) IG: bjai_eats

Phenomenal coffee! Must try the cold brew ones. The food was surprisingly good as well. Staff was really friendly. A nice place to chill and perhaps work a bit.
