Nitro Cold Brew vs Cold Brew Coffee Differences

Chill Out with The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® Nitro Cold Brew Coffee

I can’t imagine my day without coffee? I probably go cold turkey because I need a cup of coffee to kick start my day and the rest will be fine. Well, recently we tried the new Nitro Cold Brew Coffee, and I tell you it’s the best smoothest coffee I ever tried. Do you know that Nitro Cold Brew Coffee is steeped for 20 hours then infused with nitrogen for silky and creamy finishing with a hint of sweet and spicy effects. What are the differences between Nitro Cold Brew verses Cold Brew and Iced Americano?

Nitro Cold Brew vs Cold Brew Coffee Differences  

Few days ago, I had a great time chilled out at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® (CB&TL) Mont Kiara while enjoying their latest Nitro Cold Brew Coffee.  That day I had a blind test trying to guess the three between Nitro Cold Brew, Cold Brew and Iced Americano. Want to know what’s the difference and similarity between these 3 types of coffee?

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® Nitro Cold Brew Coffee

My usual iced coffee is iced Americano I prefer it without sugar or milk. It has a rich, full-bodied espresso shots with cold water and ice; it’s refreshing at the same time gives me the caffeine kick.

The Differences Between Cold Brew vs Nitro Cold Brew

Tapped My First Nitro Cold Brew

Then I started to try their Cold Brew and now they’ve got Nitro Cold Brew Coffee. Both, CB&TL Cold Brew and Nitro Cold Brew are using an exclusive special blend of premium Bali Blue Moon and Ethiopia Yirgacheffe coffee beans, plus chicory that is roasted and steeped for 20 hours. Well, it takes 20 hours because cold brew using time instead of heat to extract the flavour from the beans and deliver a truly rich and delicate coffee. Remember to make delicious cold brew coffee it's recommended to uses specially roasted coffee beans for cold brew. There are many options on the market.

The Cold Brew aroma is lightly floral with smooth and crisp texture. As you sip more you get the hint of roasty walnut and black cherry flavours.

The Nitro Cold Brew is Cold Brew infused with nitrogen to gives that smooth silky finishing. After infused with nitrogen it gives a different body, flavours and aroma too. Nitro Cold Brew has this creamy texture with sweet herbal spice aroma. After a while you get the sweet toffee, brown sugar and caramel.

Nitro Cold Brew Vanilla Bean Latte

You can have it straight from the tap which I like it that way, or as Latte or Vanilla Bean Latte. It’s an ultimate treat for coffee lovers in need of a cold, creamy caffeine fix.

Why infuse the cold brew with nitrogen? Well, the nitrogen actually enhanced the natural sweetness of the coffee, giving it subtle tones of sweet toffee and caramel, so it can be enjoyed without added sugar for a guilt-free pick-me-up on a hot day. Plus, it’s stored in a keg and refrigerated under pressure so it can be served immediately, ice-cold and ready.

Special Nitro Cold Brew mix

Not only that I also had an opportunity to concoct my special Nitro Cold Brew mix. You can check out the California Nitro, Strawberry Mint and Coco Vanilla mixology recipes. I had mine Nitro Cold Brew with coconut, vanilla and mint, that what I like a minty, with the coconut and vanilla aroma and sweetness.
