What should you drink to really say you had a good visit hahahaha It's this ### Signature coconut coffee This menu item is so popular it has sold over 1.11 million cups and even holds a patent 👍👍 ![Signature coconut coffee topped with soft foam](https://img.superchart.com/images/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans-12-1mai5-900.webp) *Jeong Ji-young Coffee Roasters coconut coffee* Sweet coconut coffee topped with soft foam (₩7,000) > Iced only! ### Taste tip For the coconut coffee, make sure to stir it thoroughly all the way to the bottom to get the best flavor!!! ![Signature coconut coffee stirred all the way to the bottom](https://img.superchart.com/images/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans-13-1v8gx-1200.webp) *Jeong Ji-young Coffee Roasters signature coffee* Coconut coffee with a gentle, subtle coconut aroma > With a patent behind it, this menu item won't split opinions I expected it to be super sickly sweet, but the aftertaste is surprisingly clean. Usually adding a lot of syrup or sugar leaves a heavy aftertaste, but the power of the special recipe! Not heavy at all ![A cup of iced vanilla latte](https://img.superchart.com/images/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans-14-1rlka-900.webp) And the iced vanilla latte (₩6,800) > Good beans = good coffee ![Sign showing selectable bean roast levels](https://img.superchart.com/images/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans/nowon-jeongjiyoung-coffee-specialty-beans-15-o3847-900.webp) ## How do you choose the beans?
