Coconut Flavor Over Ice Review
- Origin: Brazilian and Guatemalan coffee among others
- Order: Buy Coconut Flavor Over Ice at Nespresso
A limited edition of coconut flavored coffee for cold drinks.
Light brown foam. The coconut smell is strong and immediately identifiable, even from afar. Very sweet aroma overall, with hints of vanilla and delicately roasted coffee.
Dry and light-bodied, timidly bitter at the first taste, especially when drank hot, less so as a cold coffee. Weak crema.
Nutty aftertaste, with a “burning” feeling left at the back of the mouth. It is a vague effect but peculiar. Not overtly sweet, more like a raw coconut than a sweetened coconut milk. Some woodiness and cereals can be tasted throughout the drinking experience, reminding of the exterior of a coconut.
A low intensity pod that has plenty of coconut flavor and works as a gentle cup of coffee when drank hot. Sugar or milk greatly enhance this capsule, bringing out more of its innate sweetness and keeping its nice acidity.
As a cold coffee, drank over ice as suggested by Nespresso, it is a vibrant pod, with more pronounced roastiness and a great acidity in the aftertaste. It still requires some sweetener to enrich its taste profile and bringing out the best out of this capsule though. Unsweetened and cold is more a regular espresso, lightly roasted and with a bit of coconut flavor.
