Aromas
Reviews
I have drunk coffee all around the world - literally - and I can tell you Aromas is one of the best I have had. Bryan and Cara care about the customer and about the coffee they serve. It shows in every cup they serve and most definitely shows in the wonderful coffee itself. Keep it UP!
Great cup of coffee. First time customer and I was treated by owner to a free cup. Nice gesture good coffee
Love this place. Love it. Owned by a friendly, charismatic young couple, located in a gracious old high-ceilinged space on North Main Street in Charles City, "America's Home Town," Aromas is a delight. Free Wi-Fi, lots of space to sit and chat, a welcome, friendly atmosphere, and local art for sale on the walls would all recommend it even if the coffee weren't good. But the coffee? It's GREAT. Mr. of the Mr./Mrs. couple who own and run the place was actally raised in Seattle, so I suppose he must've gotten his "coffee cred" there. That being said, he avoids the dreaded Starbucks Burn that I fear a lot of people associate with Seattle coffee culture. He roasts his own, and it's FANTASTIC. He buys excellent beans, then respects them during the roast. The resulting coffee is soft and smooth, with not a trace of extra acid or burn. It's mellow enough for me to have horked down shot after shot over ice with no sensation but smooth perfection. They've also got scones, teas, chai things (I'm not a Chai Person) and Italian sodas, which they'll whip up "cremosa" or plain. My orange cremosa Italian soda the other morning was tart/sweet and very light - not syrupy and awful, like most that I've had. This place is seriously good. I hope they thrive and prosper for a very long time. Go there!
A great place to add flavour to your mornings. Ask for passion fruit flavour coffee. :o) Seriously, I enjoyed Aromas.
Great products, great people, amazing service! I love this place!
