Cold coffees: giving another dimension to our coffees
Summer is here, and with it, the desire to enjoy a refreshing cold coffee. In this blog, we present three methods for preparing perfect cold coffee: flash brew, cold brew and slow drip. The flash brew is quick and highlights the floral and fruity notes of the coffee. Cold brew, a slow cold infusion, offers a concentrate of intense and sweet flavors, ideal for keeping for a week.
