There's a couple local coffee places offering nitro coffee. Has anybody tried this concoction? It sounds interesting to me.

I don't know, but I've heard it has a lot of espresso in it.

I think is cold brewed, but I'm not really a coffee drinker, anyway. I just saw something in the paper about it, and it sounded interesting because I like Guinness and nitro porter beers.

It was not a comment of the Irish people in general.
And certainly not adressed to Sirius.
In fact Ireland haven't been doing any bombing for at least 15 years.

Cheers:)

I like a mug of milk coffee with a touch of rum now & again, but whiskey? Ugh! :-(

Really?
In 1988, the National Standards Authority of Ireland published Irish Standard I.S. 417: Irish Coffee.

Sounds like an EU legislation.
Perhaps it is already:)

As long the coffee are warm or hot it doesn't matter to me.
But using nitro in cold coffee to mimic hot coffee sounds very strange to me.
Here autumn has already started...

Well, I tried the nitro coffee, and it was ok, but it didn't live up to my expectation. I was thinking it would have the consistency closer to a Guinness, but it was basically just iced coffee. All in all, I'd rather have a few scoops of coffee ice cream. :~)

Today is National Coffee Day celebrated with free coffee

Apparently the International Coffee Day has changed to 1 October.
So there is still time to celebrate.
