Hot & Honorable

April

Nearly a decade into roasting, April pairs a rigorous quality control program with deep competition pedigree, from founder Patrik Rolf’s championship runs to a steady stream of current competitors representing the brand, and delivers consistently clean, very good cups. Service at the Pilestræde coffee bar is quietly Michelin style in pacing and detail. Rolf’s large online presence has helped define and popularize Nordic style roasting worldwide, and that combination of impact, execution, and a precisely run coffee bar earns our highest distinction.
