Austin, TX I have followed Houndstooth on Instagram for a while (https://www.instagram.com/houndstoothcoffee/). It’s been high on my coffee bucket list and I tried a pour over of Finca Pachuj from Guatemala that took my breath away! It had good body, super smooth, balanced, and a little bit of dark fruit mixed with a chocolate! The vibe of this shop was super “Austin” if you know what I mean. I think the slogan is "Keep Austin Weird." Very upbeat and hipster. Cool music. And

This quaint shop, on a small street in the heights immediately jumps up on to my favorites list! They have all of the classic offerings (espresso drinks, many different pour over options, etc). Also feature a coffee drink of the month (currently their take on a coffee old fashioned. Think bitters and fresh orange) I tried a Natural Ecuador pour over done on the V60 method (here's what the v60 method looks like if you didn't know https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMMcfnQR5Js). T
