Fildz Osijek (Croatia) - Colombia, La Experimental, bourbon and sidra, natural process, V60
There's a new specialty coffee place in Osijek, Croatia called Fildz (named after the slavonian fields). They roast their beans in Zagreb, and the bean variety/availability is seasonal. In the pictures, you see a 300ml V60 pourover (5.60€) and a Cappuccino with a nice latte art.
The coffee tasted like berries, I would rather say cranberry and Aronia (chokeberry), but I understand why many would associate the taste with black currant and cranberry. My palette isn't as developed as some super tasters and coffee tasting experts. I liked it.
My dad, on the other hand, took a sip and said something like "Ew, it doesn't taste like coffee, I wouldn't drink it even if they paid me." He's not into specialty coffee, he drinks instant with milk and sugar, sometimes Turkish with a lot of milk, and the instant cappuccinos. His cappuccino was rated with "fine, but lacking sugar, nothing special".
Bought two 200g bags of different coffees for preparing at home. 200g costs 12-15€ depending on the variety.
I hope they last, I don't have many places I can get freshly roasted beans without ordering online, Osijek is an option for 1-2 times in 1-2 months.
