David Donde is the co-founder of Truth Coffee Roasting in Cape Town, South Africa. The UK news agency The Telegraph named Truth Coffee the number one coffee shop in the world. http://www.eatout.co.za/article/cape-towns-truth-coffee-roasting-named-best-coffee-shop-world/ David focuses relentlessly on quality and taste. By going back to the basics – on sourcing beans, roasting them, blending them, and grinding them – David searches for the essence of the humble bean. He says he’s trying to “get coffee to deliver on the promise of the aroma of freshly ground coffee.” A noble pursuit, we’d say. Truth offers five blends from its vintage roaster, each created to resonate with your different coffee needs. https://truth.coffee/pages/truth-cafe.
