FAQ

How Is an Americano Different from Black Coffee?

An Americano blends bold espresso with hot water, creating a smooth, balanced drink. At first glance, it may look like a simple cup of black coffee, but there’s more going on beneath the surface. Its story begins in Italy during World War II, when American soldiers longed for the familiar drip-brew coffee they drank back home. To recreate that taste, Italian baristas poured strong espresso into hot water, giving it the name caffè Americano. Black coffee is made by filtering hot water through ground coffee beans, while an Americano starts with espresso and often retains a thin layer of crema on top. This adds depth and character, staying true to its espresso roots without becoming overpowering or bitter. At White Noise Coffee, the rich scent of freshly roasted coffee fills the air, promising that first heart-warming sip. We have two locations in Midtown Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn. Pair an Americano coffee near me in Brooklyn or Manhattan with:

Does Americano Coffee Have More Caffeine Than Other Coffee?

You may be surprised to learn that the caffeine content of an Americano is similar to that of a cup of black coffee. The exact amount depends on the size of your drink and the number of espresso shots used. Approximate caffeine levels in our freshly roasted coffee drinks include:

  • Single shot of espresso: 85 to 115 mg caffeine
  • Small black coffee: 150 to 200 mg caffeine
  • Small Americano: 175 to 225 mg caffeine
  • Medium vanilla latte: 175 to 225 mg caffeine
  • Medium iced cold brew: 200 to 225 mg caffeine
  • Large mocha: 265 to 350 mg caffeine
An Americano lands right in the middle. It gives you a little more caffeine than black coffee but without the intensity of cold brew. This makes it the perfect choice when you want an energy boost that’s strong enough to wake you up, yet smooth enough to sip and enjoy.
