🇪🇸 Cinnamood brings specialty coffee and cinnamon rolls to El Born

Cinnamood has opened a cafe and bakery in El Born, Barcelona, pairing cinnamon rolls with a specialty-coffee offer inside a newly completed 89-square-metre room. A September design report documents the project’s rounded counters, vivid gradient metal and adapted historic-shell layout near Santa Maria del Mar, developed as a repeatable concept for the growing brand.

Why it matters: it is a useful signal for Barcelona readers because the opening sits in a central, walkable district where coffee stops often compete with tourist-led all-day cafés. Cinnamood’s coffee programme needs a closer cup-level assessment before it earns a recommendation, but the venue is a concrete new option for visitors combining the Born’s galleries, independent shops and a bakery-led coffee stop.

☕️ Bangkok hosts 2026 World Cup Tasters result

Check dates with the organiser

World Coffee Championships has confirmed Le Quang Cuong (Nicky), representing Vietnam, as the 2026 World Cup Tasters Champion after the Bangkok competition. The event ran May 7-9 at World of Coffee Bangkok, with 46 competitors and a final ranking that also included Catherine Queiroz, Mehmet Sogan, and Mizuki Tagami.

Why it matters: Bangkok is a Filter Notes city, and hosting a major global sensory competition is a useful marker for readers tracking where the specialty coffee calendar is concentrating attention.
