Why we LOVE Portland!
Cappuccino of the Week
Last week your “Best Cappuccino” chasing Portland Realtor was preparing one of our new Pearl District listings (1410 NW Kearney St., Unit 910, THE EDGE LOFTS) and decided to stop by Stumptown Coffee Roasters on SW 3rd. Okay, it isn’t in the Pearl District, but I figured any excuse to have coffee at Stumptown is worth taking.
Now on to the coffee: Awesome presentation. The style appears to be cappuccino chiaro (white cappuccino, also known as a wet cappuccino). The foam wasn’t nearly as creamy as Costellos. But upon breaking thru the top layer your palette is pleasantly welcomed by a very honest and intense espresso flavor. You feel as though you mouth is bathing in a coffee bean puree, and it feels good! Okay, this review sounds really flowering I know. But I think I have found a tie for Costello’s cappuccino.
