    Re: Epic

    After my couple of trips to Epic, I think all you folks in Perth are very lucky! Living in Townsville makes it a little on the expensive side to go chasing a nice double espresso. $300 return to Sydney, $600 for Melbourne or a lazy $1200 to go across to Perth make the $3.30 for a coffee a rather expensive cup!

    Many thanks to Corey and his team at Epic, the passion for good coffee is evident, and the Custom Blend, well I just hope people dont become blase about it, with the various SOs that will come out over time. It really is exquisite, with a flavour that is distinctive and addictive.

    Now all I have to try and do is get a close approximation of them at home on my machine.

    Keep up the good work Corey and Team. Two Thumbs Up!

      Re: Epic

      I called into Epic yesterday morning and ordered a double ristretto custom blend. Amazing! The custom blend has been tweaked and in my opinion I believe it to be the best coffee available in any of perth cafes.

      The new blend has really raised the bar again. Mouth feel, texture & body are so intense yet so smooth. It really is a coffee that can be had all day long.

      Keep up the good work guys.

        Re: Epic

        Thought Id add my voice to the positive consensus here. Epic certainly does make kick-ass coffee.
        I for one do appreciate the time put into making each coffee. Having been a barista (I believe I can actually use that term) in a VERY busy cafe in a local shopping center I have come to know two things. A) It takes time to make good coffee and B) the general populous does not understand this and believe they should have what they ordered within 30 seconds of ordering it ...regardless. :

        But enough of my gripe, back to Epic ... The coffee is fantastic but Id like to mention the Hot Chocolate (I know it has a proper name but do you think I can think of it right now?) I discovered this treat yesterday and I just have to say it is heaven in a cup. Melted Belgian chocolate and warm milk - mmmmm.

        Corey and the team are definitely doing it right. Its not just about the coffee, its the whole package. Theyve gone to a lot of trouble to source the best products from the coffee to the light meals right down to the nougat (Oh the nougat). Im well and truly addicted to the entire Cafe. And the added bonus is that Corey and the team make it such a pleasant place to visit. The cafe seems to exude an enthusiastic, friendly atmosphere.

        Thank you for upping the standard, not just of the coffee but of the entire experience. [smiley=dankk2.gif]

            Hey LisaB, Glad to hear that you are enjoying Epic as much as a few others around here.

            I agree with you on the hot chocolate. I havent had anything like it before. A word of warning... they become addictive...

            Have you tried the affogatto from there yet?

              Hi Chris,

              Havent tried the affogatto yet but seeing as it so nice and warm out there today I may have to make that my afternoon coffee Slowly working my way through the menu. I tried the Chai Latte (Yes I know its tea) the other day. Definitely worth the 3 minute wait for it to brew. None of this syrup business that other cafes use

                I highly recommend the affogato - I go with the vanilla bean ice-cream but the others are good too. Also - go with a double ristretto on that affogato!

                  Definately the double for the affogatto.

                  Just the weather for the "treat".
