Aceh Pantan Musura

Jean Baptiste Bernadet left the corporate IT world to pursue his coffee passion and in 2016 opened Early Bird, a micro roastery tucked into a 15 square meter space in Paris's 9th arrondissement near Grands Boulevards. The tiny cafe seats six to eight people at most and roasts on site right behind the bar, putting the entire process on display for anyone who walks in. Single origin specialty coffees are roasted light to medium to let origin characteristics shine, with beans sourced from Ethiopia, Colombia, Kenya, Guatemala, and Costa Rica and brewed through espresso, V60, Chemex, and batch brew methods. The operation is decidedly coffee focused with only pastries from local Parisian bakeries rounding out the menu. Early Bird has become a popular gathering spot for the local creative community and is a fixture in Paris specialty coffee guides.
