Finding good coffee in the center of the Las Vegas Strip can be a challenge. However, the Looking Glass espresso from Cool Kids Coffee, available at District Donuts in The Cosmopolitan, stands out.
This espresso offers a rich and complex flavor profile. The initial notes of dark cherry and plum are complemented by a deep chocolate undertone. The finish features hints of spices and blackberry, adding depth and complexity. Subtle floral overtones provide a balanced touch. Lush and persistent crema. The depth of the flavors and mouthfeel are notably excellent.
In addition to the outstanding espresso, the cold brew made with a Cool Kids blend is also very good. It's smooth, refreshing, and showcases the same attention to quality and flavor.
Looking Glass espresso demonstrates the expertise of Cool Kids Coffee in creating a multifaceted and enjoyable coffee experience. It is highly recommended for those seeking a well-crafted espresso on the Strip.Cupping Method:Doppio at District Donuts early AM in Las Vegas Cosmo

After a bit of work that District Donuts in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas sources its coffee from Cool Kids Coffee, a New Orleans roaster. It's a challenge to find excellent coffee in Vegas, but this spot stands out as one of the best options on this part of the Strip. I recommend the espresso and cold brew here.
Their medium roast cold brew is rock solidsuper balanced and smooth with delightful chocolate notes and a hint of nuttiness. The finish is exceptionally clean and smooth, with a nice mouthfeel and natural sweetness. The molasses notes mentioned by the roaster really come through.Cupping Method:I ordered this cold brew at District Donuts in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and enjoyed it while walking to the Paris Hotel (85 degrees at 8 am).
