Office workers are in a hurry, slowly "Ding Ding" trams. This is the daily street view of Sheung Wan. I sat by the window of Amber Coffee Brewery and watched it all. Then I sipped the Espresso made by Dawn, champion of the Hong Kong barista contest and runner-up of the WBC World Barista Competition, and chatted with him easily. This cup of coffee seemed to make the busy city approachable.

"coffee should be a popular drink." Dawn, a 27-year-old barista, chose to open a shop in des Voeux Road Central, Sheung Wan, in order to promote coffee. "although the rent is not cheap, it gives me access to more customers." On the day of the visit, a couple from Iceland praised the delicious coffee and decided to help again before leaving Hong Kong the next day. "the name of the store is Amber, which means amber in Chinese. It has evolved from resin over a long period of time. It is very precious. My relationship with my guests is like amber. Friendship slowly accumulates." With that, I handed over a cup of coffee to my new acquaintance.

The coffee was filled with a handmade cup bought in Denmark, with a splash of ink pattern and a sweet smell of honey. It was originally mixed with Costa Rican coffee beans, with a BlackBerry flavor at the entrance, making the reporter take another sip. "good coffee will be fascinating. I can't help but drink one more sip." Dawn said with a smile. Coffee has a long history, but it has developed rapidly in recent years. With the rise of instant coffee, the globalization of coffee chains and the popularity of boutique coffee, it is now entering the fourth wave, that is, the popularity of hand-brewed coffee. For reporters who have just started drinking hand-brewed coffee, Dawn's opinion is simple and easy to understand. "hand-brewed coffee emphasizes flavor, and even novice coffee can feel the taste of beans, such as flowers, peaches and fruits." This is the coffee of success. " The precious thing about hand-brewed coffee is that different brewing methods will lead to different flavors, and the taste will change over time.

Dawn won the Hong Kong barista contest championship in 2014 and then represented Hong Kong in the WBC World barista Competition, which competed with Espresso and milk caffeine, but he asked another colleague, Noddy, to prepare Latte for me to taste. "Noddy is half of my master. He brought me into the industry and then went to The Cupping Room to work together. He went to Taiwan earlier and learned that my new store was understaffed. Without a word, he came to help. He is even better at pulling flowers than I am! " Dawn said modestly.

Take a closer look, this cup of Latte milk foam is carefully beaten, the pattern of pull flowers is extremely kungfu, and it tastes delicious. I admire the honesty of Dawn most. "it's not a big outfit, and everyone is working hard to make a good cup of coffee, so we put great emphasis on communication." From the shop social platform, we can see that Taiwanese coffee master Lim Dong-Won, WCE World Cup brewing champion Pak Gu Zhe, and world flower drawing champion Caleb all came to support each other, which shows that there is a deep friendship between them.

In addition to coffee, the new store specially serves alcoholic drinks at night. "after becoming a barista, I found that Hong Kong people like to chat very much. Wine and coffee are very similar, and chatting while drinking resonates. I hope to provide a relaxed environment for guests to talk. " When he had finished, he bowed his head and concentrated on making coffee. Before the reporter left, he happened to meet another coffee shop owner who brought his staff to taste the coffee, exchange their experiences and speak freely. There is not much space in the shop, and more customers still need to stand up, but everyone leaves with a smile. What attracts them is not only the smell of coffee.
