Stumptown funk you up
Say whaaa?!
Cold brew coffee, that's what.
Not new news, but Caffé Bottega in the Tuscany Casino is serving Stumptown Coffee Roasters cold brew coffee. After recently visiting the Pacific Northwest, I didn't realize what a strong presence Stumptown coffee had there until I left. Strangely enough, I was on a tea binge at the time and subconsciously avoided coffee altogether (yes, I am looking at you S***bucks). My curiosity for Stumptown brought me on an adventure all the way to the Tuscany Casino.
From the main entrance of Tuscany Casino, go right to an almost hidden cafe. I was immediately enticed by the sweet goodies in the case, which had pastries and donuts. I went with a buttermilk bar (square shaped one) and wow, it was yummy. 5/5
The highly anticipated cold brew, was a bit disappointing. Compared to other places in town, I was not impressed. Cold brew is supposed to have a less acidic and bitter taste. This version was acidic. There were some fruity and floral tones present. I did not finish my drink. 3/5
The baristas were warm, friendly, and helpful. They do sell Stumptown coffee by the bag for $16.
