Flavored Coffees in Midtown West & Downtown Brooklyn

FAQ

What Are Flavored Coffees?

Flavored coffee in New York City is coffee that’s naturally or artificially flavored. This is done during different phases of turning the coffee bean into freshly ground coffee. Natural flavorings are better tasting than artificial for obvious reasons, but they’re frequently more expensive. You can flavor coffee:

Before it’s roasted by spraying liquid flavorings or oils onto the coffee beans to be absorbed in the roasting process
After it’s roasted with added extracts or oils that are absorbed as it dries
With natural flavorings mixed with the beans during roasting — like cocoa, vanilla or cinnamon — giving it a more mellow flavor
After it’s brewed with flavored syrups that also may add sugar

At White Noise Coffee, we use only the finest, sustainably sourced coffee beans to flavor. The multitude of flavors we offer will keep you coming back again and again to try them all. Coffee drinkers are now looking for a more personalized experience with unique brewing techniques and new flavors, and White Noise Coffee has all the latest trends and a few surprises thrown in.

Can I Get Flavored Iced Coffee?

Flavored iced coffee is probably more popular than its hot sister. Coffee shops have taken the cold coffee trend to new levels. In addition to the amazing espresso slushie that you find at White Noise Coffee, iced flavored coffee in Brooklyn or Manhattan may include:

Caramel iced macchiato
Iced butterscotch latte
Frozen mocha almond

Iced coffee has acquired a huge following since about 2010. New flavors that merge well with coffee and ice include birthday cake, pumpkin pie and butter pecan. If you can dream it up, we can probably make it. There are varying nuances between the hot and cold version of your favorite coffee beverage; heat adds certain characteristics to the coffee, as does the cold. Try each and you may find a new favorite.

What’s the Difference Between Flavored Syrup and Flavored Coffee?

Ordinarily, flavored syrup adds sugar or sweetness, and a flavored coffee usually doesn’t. Coffee beans that are flavored hold their character longer than ground flavored coffee. Flavored syrups offer consistent quality, but often lack the complexity needed to go from a good to a great cup of coffee. Whether you go for whole beans or ground, when you order custom flavored coffee, you want to maintain its freshness by storing it away from:

Light
Heat
Moisture

This is why coffee drinkers commonly store their coffee in the freezer. The better brands of coffee offer a resealable bag for this reason. Syrups are a fabulous idea for a party. You can make one pot of coffee, and the guests can choose their own flavor. Single serve coffee makers have their place but only create a log jam at a party.

What Is Coffee Sauce?

Coffee sauce is a type of flavoring that’s made with coffee and other ingredients. Unlike regular flavorings that are watery, coffee sauce has a slightly thicker viscosity, which enhances the mouthfeel of the coffee beverage. It’s great for layered coffee drinks or just adding a little pizzazz to your home brew. They can add a touch of:

Sweetness
Savoriness
Saltiness

Sweet coffee sauce like chocolate or caramel can also be used as a dessert topping. Savory sauce may be incorporated into meat or vegetables. Because of the acidic nature of coffee, it makes for a dynamite marinade.
