Alchemy Roast

Michael Beauregard a month ago

Today I found myself at Alchemy Roast, a local roaster operating in Mesa, AZ. Alchemy has roasted coffee for the better part of eight years, only recently moving into the space at Dobson and Broadway. Beyond my cappuccino, a bit dry, I also opted for a Brown Sugar Latte and a straight espresso pull. At times, the quality of the roast is masked by the foamed milk, the syrups, or similar additions to the recipe. A straight pull of espresso allows the roast to speak for itself. The cappuccino was done well, despite the lack of an appropriate cappuccino ceramic. Nevertheless, the barista did a fine job. The score is more a reflection of the acriditty of the roast, rather than the craft. The degree of acrid flavor reflects both the roast and the bean. I enjoyed Alchemy. The overall vibe of the place and outgoing kindness of the barista was top shelf. If a mixed latte is your elixir of choice, I recommend Alchemy. However, if a macchiato is more your jam, I suggest you consider your flavor profile of choice prior to ordering. Enjoy.

Happy to see Alchemy Roast has opened their first public brick and mortar! Great coffee, fantastic people, and welcoming environment! I've been buying their beans wholesale for several years and have yet to find a better roaster.
