"Boon Boona sources their coffee beans from Africa and roasts them in-house—the result is a rich, bold cup that will inspire you to change your commute in the morning. While their espresso is terrific as-is, they’ll often have a berbere-kicked mocha available. It’s earthy, a little spicy, and the perfect thing to sip all morning as you snack on an Umami Kushi okazupan and stroll around Capitol Hill. On a hot day, you can also find Boon Boona’s coffee steeped into popsicles at Seattle Pops. " - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
