Sukhumvit Soi 38's super-hip Hands and Heart cafe now roasts its own coffee. 

Open to the public, the new roasting house out the back of Phra Khanong sticks to a minimalist black and white aesthetic similar to the cafe.

Here, Chattrin "Pok" Tummachairoj, who previously worked as a roaster for Australia's Five Senses, oversees operations.

Beans come from all around the world, from Bolivia to Burundi, available as single origin (from B740/250g) or in blends like the house Coffeehood (a mix of beans from Doi Saked and Mae Krachan in Chiang Mai and Guatemala), whose chocolatey-citrus flavor suited to espresso you can take home for B500/250g.

You can also try drinks (priced B120-500) like the bubbly coffee kombucha (B180), which sees drip coffee fermented for 5-6 days and served iced.

Drop by on Sunday to see the three owners in action roasting or stay tuned for one of their free monthly cupping sessions and more extensive 1-2-day courses.
