Coffee black technology vs. Internet celebrity coffee shop, full review, we pick this one

Drinking coffee has changed from a one-person thing to a group thing over the years.

I used to grind coffee by hand, and I would check in at Starbucks every day after work. I remember the movie "Waiting for Coffee" two years ago, which rekindled the desire of many people to open coffee shops. Now coffee has become a story between us and the delivery guy. Drinking coffee used to be a process of enjoying it slowly by one person, but now it has become a process of a group of people queuing up slowly.

Today, I received a review submission from a fan about a popular coffee. From internet celebrities to tech geeks, 6 of the hottest cups of coffee were selected. Let’s have a comprehensive PK to see which cup is the true love of true coffee lovers and is worth waiting for?

The results of the evaluation are very interesting, and we would like to share them with you here.

These six big names have great backgrounds: % ARABICA, which is hard to find in Kyoto and Hong Kong, DOE, an internet celebrity who was delayed by selling shoes, Carioca, whose girlish heart is always sweet, Gregorius, who has a retro style, and Keep, which has the flavor of Shanghai alleys. I bought milk coffee from these five stores in takeaway cups, and also made my own latte using the black technology micro-grinding Nestle Gold Medal coffee.

Taste

Really good coffee is not the bitterer the better, but rather a balance between sweetness, sourness and bitterness. Only when the bitterness is moderate, the acidity is high, and the mouth is sweet can a cup of coffee have an excellent taste.

%ARABICA (★★★★ ★ ): The most popular latte, which neutralizes the sourness of coffee and the smoothness of milk well, and the aftertaste is more of milk. Probably because the milk is highly whipped, the aroma of coffee is slightly lost in the aftertaste process.

DOE (★★★) : Selling shoes and coffee at the same time shows the shop owner's "greed" for life. Natural coffee is not single, the most signature oat milk ice latte is a mixture of oatmeal and coffee, the milk and bean aromas are not giving in to each other, but also blending with each other.

Carioca (★★★★) : This shop carries the girl's thoughts from the decoration to the menu. The signature latte is made with Brazilian coffee beans, which has a very mature coffee flavor and a nutty aroma. The taste is delicate with bitterness and sourness, and the aftertaste is sweet with the sweetness of dark chocolate.

Gregorius (★★★★) : Hidden on Yuyuan Road, Gregorius is a vintage masterpiece with a dark green interior that is extremely artistic. The latte is delicious and full of floral aroma, but a little light, and the heavy taste needs to be supplemented.

Keep (★★★✩) : Their latte is also relatively sweet, but a little astringent, which tests the extraction technology.

Nestle Gold Coffee (★★★★✩) : To be honest, this Nestle micro-ground coffee refreshed my cognition. It tastes like freshly ground coffee. The roasting degree is selected as the ultimate original dark roast (there are two dark roasts and one light roast, suitable for people with different tastes). The acidity is balanced and the bitterness is moderate. The aftertaste can taste chocolate, cocoa and caramel. The micro-grinding and low-temperature freeze-drying technology retains the fruit acidity of the coffee beans, which is refreshing and fragrant, and the overall taste is particularly smooth!

concentration

Drinking coffee with only milk is a hooligan~

%ARABICA ( ★★★★★ ): Its signature latte is made from fine coffee beans with a score of 80 or above from a single origin. Combined with the store’s Slayer coffee machine (the “Ferrari” among coffee machines), it retains the most original and complete flavor of the coffee’s origin. You can’t help but love it.

DOE ( ★★★ ): We have mentioned before their exclusive coffee recipe - oats and coffee. The milky aroma of the wheat ears steals the show, while the richness of the coffee is slightly inferior.

Carioca (★★ ★ ✩): Selected coffee beans from Brazil, with a typical South American flavor. Bitter but not astringent, sweet but not greasy.

Gregorius, Keep ( ★★★ ): Their coffee is delicious, but the strength is slightly lower and the aftertaste is missing.

Nestle Gold Coffee (★★★ ★ ✩): Made from top-quality Arabica coffee beans, it is very suitable for black coffee. Adding a proper amount of milk will make a sweet latte. Although you brew it yourself, the ratio of milk to coffee is just right, which does not affect the concentration of the coffee at all, and it tastes smooth and not astringent.

aroma

If you want to do it, make a cup of coffee that has the aroma of the soul.

%ARABICA ( ★★★ ): You can smell the rich and fragrant aroma when grinding beans in the store. But after leaving the store, the coffee in your hand no longer has the same feeling as before.

DOE ( ★★★ ): The sweetness of oat milk and the richness of coffee are mixed together, and the grain aroma of oats may be stronger.

Carioca (★★★ ✩ ): After all, it is an award-winning coffee bean with a rich aroma. Unfortunately, it was overshadowed by the sweet fruity aroma in the store.

Gregorius, Keep ( ★★★ ): The aroma of the coffee is light and charming, but probably because it is a takeaway cup, the aroma of the coffee is not as strong after it is brought to the office.

Nestle Gold Medal Coffee (★★★ ★ ✩ ): This one really comes with a prize when you open the lid - the aroma is so fragrant when you open the bottle, because its exclusive micro-grinding process and low-temperature freeze-drying retain the caramel aroma of roasted coffee, and the rich coffee bean aroma will waft out every time you open the bottle.

After drinking these six internet-famous coffees, I found that each one has its own strengths. People who love coffee don't mind having too many choices. But in summary, I recommend these three: DOE, %ARABICA and Nestle Gold Medal Coffee. DOE is safe and suitable for most people's tastes. %ARABICA is worth a try, whether it is the simple packaging or the top-grade roasting and grinding experience.

For someone like me who loves coffee technology, Nestle Gold Coffee is a new coffee variety that surprises me. Although it is instant brewing, it relies on exclusive micro-grinding and low-temperature freeze-drying technology to retain the original flavor of coffee beans, and the taste is comparable to hand-ground coffee. And every time you finish drinking it, there is coffee grounds at the bottom of the cup, and you can see the micron-level particles left by the micro-grinding technology.

After all, it is a pleasant surprise to be able to taste ground coffee for the price of a cup of instant coffee.
