That looks like a pretty delicious pour over. It's just what it looks like in a transparent glass.

I'm certain it's pour-over. This is most likely specialty coffee. If it is specialty it demands a higher price because it requires much more care, attention and experimentation than a classic cup.

Sounds pretentious and unnecessary

It’s not, some people enjoy the differences in flavors among specialty coffee. It’s a hobby like craft beer. People can certainly go about it in a pretentious manner. Those stupid espresso workflow videos certainly don’t help haha
