Bean Drinking

Coffee Tasting Flight, $15
Bean Drinking, a cozy cafe decorated with coffee sacks, showcases the handcrafted small-batch specialty coffees by Roastworks Coffee Co. They pride themselves on offering coffees with a variety of brewing methods, and what better way to experience the best Bean Drinking has to offer than to give their 'tasting flight' a go?

Cold Drip
The cold drip coffee has taken Sydney by storm, particularly in the warmer months. At Bean Drinking, the coffee is presented in an adorable little pill bottle and served over ice. The taste of the coffee is light, sweet yet robust.

Nitro

The nitro iced coffee comes straight out of a tap, like beer. It is a cold-brew coffee that is infused with nitrogen, and as high pressure forces the coffee past a disc, a foamy, beer-like effect is created. Stronger than cold drip, the nitro at Bean Drinking has an acidic taste when it first hits the palette, followed by a smokey aftertaste.

Cascara
The Cascara is a tea made from the coffee cherry. When coffee beans are harvested, the pulped skins of the coffee cherry is usually considered a waste product. However, in recent years, these pulped skins have been collected and dried in the sun to create a tea. Also served on tap, the Cascara tea at Bean Drinking is slightly sparkling, which makes it one of the most refreshing drinks I have ever tasted. The flavour is slightly acidic and fruity, but very drinkable and does not make your mouth pucker at all.

Cinnamon Scroll, $5.80
 The perfect companion to a flight of coffees is the cinnamon scroll. Moist and very cinamonny (even for a cinnamon scroll), my favourite way to enjoy it is to eat a small piece and wash it down with a sip of cold, refreshing coffee.

Score: 4.5 / 5 
Cost: more expensive than your average cup of Joe, especially if you ordered each item separately rather than in a flight - coffees range between $4 to $7 each.
