The newly-opened Starbucks in Cotai is making that daily cup of joe a little more special with a coffee experience bar where customers can enjoy handcrafted coffee prepared with the highest quality Arabica beans in the world.
This experience bar, only available at Starbucks at MGM Cotai, is the US coffeehouse chain’s latest concept using premium beans which comes under the “Starbucks Reserve” label.
The experience begins when customers sit at the long wooden-top bar and the baristas will guide them through the choice of Reserve beans – Honduras La Campa, Sun-dried Uganda Sipi Falls, Easter D.R. Congo Lake Kivu, or Vietnam Da Lat, then choose the best way to bring out the beans’ characteristics, with specialty brewing methods such as Nitro Cold Brew, Siphon, Pour Over, Coffee Press, Chemex, or Black Eagle Espresso.
