Townspeople of the Mother City, here’s another amazing place for you to score your caffeine fix: The House of Machines (THoM) founded at 84 Shortmarket Street for your pleasure. The coffee brand is Evil Twin, no reference to Paul van der Spuy intended. The barista is Xolile Malinda & working the bar area is Brian. The manager is Jonny Downtown.
Taken from www.eviltwincoffee.com: This is a story of two identical brothers, one a god of the sky, the other of the earth. They share a common passion, the soulful nectar extracted from a mythical bean found only in one place in the universe. Although born from the gods, one of their hearts was not pure. We wish this was our story, mythical, strange, compelling and startlingly beautiful in its ending, but this is a fairytale for other coffee brands. Evil Twin was born much simpler. A group of guys, the borough of Brooklyn, the naughtier of a set of twins, and a desire to pedal authentic, honest coffee grinds that embrace a time that we have since forgotten.A time when a smooth cup of coffee began our day, bringing us together to regale our stories, offering nothing more than comfort.
