Origin Coffee roasting for the perfect cup of joe


Welcome to Origin! 

For artesian brewed coffee or a great selection of teas Origin Coffee roasting is the place to stop by. Here you can see the excellent baristas in action and observe how your freshly made bagel makes it from the bakery to your table. The HQ is located in Hudson street but Origin caters for 80 venues in South Africa.
 
I am a huge tea lover and I recently began appreciating brewing tea in its more natural form. A friend recently gave me a " brewing" teapot for my birthday and Origin is one of the best places to come and source some leaves. They have over a 100 types of tea leaves to choose from. 
 
Their coffee sources stem from Central America, Asia Pacific, South America and Africa.
 
They also host some barista classes which I think is a great activity for friends, a date or a birthday present for some coffee extremist. The course extends over 3 days.

Origin is open for breakfast and lunch or pop in for a take-away if time does not allow a sit down.
 
On my recent visit we sampled some tea and had a light lunch. We had a artichoke and olive sourdough open sandwich which I would not order again unfortunately. The bread was over-toasted and the toppings were underseasoned. The day saver however was a pork medallion sandwich. The flavour and sauce that accompanied this sandwich was out of this world! The sandwich was stuffed with hearty portion of carrots and coriander that gave it great fresh finishing.

The staff of Origin are extremely friendly and chatty and be sure to ask their suggestion if you are overwhelmed by all the choices.
