Dear Coffee, I Love You’s Brian W. Jones, based out of Sweden, went to Koppi, visited Barista Magazine cover model Anne and her partner Charles and made a weekend out of it:

On the train ride between Gothenburg and Copenhagen, thereโ€™s a small ย but lovely town on the coast of Sweden called Helsingborg. Aside from being home to Ikeaโ€™s corporate headquarters and a Nicorette manufacturing plant, itโ€™s home to Koppi Kaffe & Roasteriโ€”one of Swedenโ€™s finest.ย Last month I postedย this great videoย of Koppi in action and knew that I could no longer put off visiting. There is very little I love more than being around great people doing what they love and doing it so well.

At Koppiโ€™s helm are Anne Lunell and partner Charles Nystrand who have a taste for both great coffee and design thatโ€™s reflected in their gorgeous downtown cafรฉ and roastery. Natural light floods in on two sides making the space feel warm and vibrant even in the heart of Swedish winter. Thereโ€™s a La Marzocco on the bar, a daily brew in the airpot and a slow bar where you can try coffee from an AeroPress, Chemex, or V60.

Side note: We had an opportunity to try Koppi coffee in Amsterdam and it was terrific. Anne has also taught us to give in to occasional snack attacks.
