Green beans roasted in front of you, ground by hand, brewed in a clay jebena and poured in three rounds. Slow coffee, warm room, good company.
In Ethiopia, where coffee was born, it is never rushed. The beans are washed and roasted in a flat pan until the room smells of smoke and caramel. They are crushed in a mortar, brewed in a jebena over coals, and poured from a height into small cups. Sit, talk, and take all three rounds.
Hana Sisay Coffee Shop is a small, family-run café on 47th Street. It is the kind of place where the roasting pan is always warm, the TV is on, and nobody minds if you stay for all three rounds.
Whether you grew up with the ceremony or have never seen green beans roasted before, pull up a chair. The first cup is the best introduction.
"Coffee is our bread. We don't drink it alone, and we don't drink it fast."
