Reflections

Overall Rating: ★★★★★

There’s almost nothing I would change about this pint (immediate winner for Celine’s Choice)! Every rich and creamy bite is accompanied by the aroma of freshly pulled espresso.

The Good (what went well):

  • Decaf espresso: Enjoy the pint at night by using decaf instant espresso! It tastes just as good without the worry of caffeine too close to bedtime.

The Bad (lessons learned):

  • More flavour layers: The strong coffee taste is amazing, but could be a bit flat. A little more sugar and salt would help round it out.
