Tasty Coffee

The popular menu items of Coffee Nine are “Myeongdong creampresso”, americano, espresso, etc. I have tried espresso and americano, each made with a different coffee bean: the Koreana blend and the Myeong-dong blend, respectively. Both were excellent, but personally, I preferred the coffee made with the Koreana blend because it contained Ethiopean beans that I love. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I decided to purchase some of the Koreana blend coffee beans to take home with me.

Freshly Roasted Coffee Beans

They roast their own coffee beans and create unique blends to offer their customers.

Koreana blend consists of 35% of Ethiopean, 50% of Brazil, and 15% of Indiean beans. It has a refreshing and subtle tangy flavor that blends well with a pleasant nutty aroma, making it easy for anyone to enjoy comfortably.

Myeong-dong blend contains 45% of Guatemala, 30% of Columbia and 25% of Kenyan beans. It has a robust and full-bodied texture with a lingering sweetness that leaves a strong impression, making it a unique and distinct flavor. If you prefer balanced coffee, coffee made with the Myeong-dong blend will be your choice.

At Coffee Nine, you can have a conversation with your friends, read a book, or study in a comfortable and cozy atmosphere.

I recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy coffee.
