Jens Burg is one of those types of places you can whiff and sniff from a mile away. And what a…read morelovely scent it is! Aromas of coffee beans from faraway lands, unique blends of coffee and tea. Jens Burg is THE place to go if you're strolling around Hoheluft/Eppendorf on a summer's eve, you don't have to buy anything, just walk around the shop and take in the scents.
Burg roast some of their own blends, which can come as expensive as 15eu for 250gr of things named "African Blue". They do have quite a few rare blends, but have very good affordable coffee for those who don't buy into the whole luxury coffee thing (like me).
I particularly like their choice of Teas. As much as I like black tea, I love herbal teas in the Summer for making iced tea, Jens Burg are one of the only places in Hamburg that sell my favorite teas, Celestial Seasonings. They have the best citrus tea.
Jens Burg has a whole bunch of interesting gift items as well, such as mugs, cups, tins and unique confectionary such as interesting chocolates, cinnamon toffees, etc.
If you're looking to try a new brand of coffee, want a new selection of teas to choose from or are looking for some items for your kitchen, I recommend hopping into Jens Burg and poking around. There is a lot to poke around - so make sure to make the time! Their shelves are filled from floor to ceiling with anything and everything related to the world of coffee and tea.
