Octave Coffee's Cinnamon Mocha Recipe: An Effortless Harmony of Flavors
Share
As the Christmas season unfolds, treat yourself to the warmth of Octave Coffee with a simple yet delicious Cinnamon Mocha. This easy recipe enhances the rich character of Octave Coffee (we recommend a darker roast for this recipe) with the comforting notes of cocoa and cinnamon, creating a perfect blend of flavors.
Incorporating 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the brewed coffee introduces a synergy of complex flavor compounds, highlighting the polyphenols in cocoa, which interact with the coffee's aromatics, creating a heightened sensory experience.
Enhance the experience with a pinch of ground cinnamon. Cinnamon and cocoa complement each other by combining cocoa's rich sweetness and slight bitterness with cinnamon's warm and spiced flavors.
Topping with whipped cream elevates the flavors of cinnamon, cocoa, and the coffee by introducing a contrasting texture. The airy and fluffy structure of whipped cream contrasts with the dense richness of cocoa, providing a pleasing mouthfeel. Moreover, the fat content in whipped cream enhances the perceived sweetness in chocolate and coffee, resulting in a well-balanced and indulgent flavor combination.
Savor the Moment:
With each sip, relish the harmony of Octave Coffee's robust profile, the subtle sweetness of cocoa, the warmth of cinnamon, and the velvety finish of whipped cream. This Cinnamon Mocha Delight is a quick and easy way to elevate your coffee routine during the festive season.
Whether you're curled up by the fireplace or sharing moments with loved ones, Octave Coffee's Cinnamon Mocha is a comforting companion. Enjoy the simplicity and warmth of this delightful coffee creation – a perfect addition to your holiday festivities.
I recently discovered this local coffee company, Octave, and sent a message to their Instagram page. The owner immediately wrote back answering all my questions about what roast blend I should try according to my likes/dislikes. I ordered the two roasts he recommended that my husband and I should try and they DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! they were delivered freshly roasted and ground, and had wonderful flavor. We will definitely be trying their other blends in the future. I love having someone local and super friendly that I felt comfortable to ask questions and get exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend giving Octave a try!

I tried the LO-FI Roast Sumatra. I ground the beans for a stovetop, Bialetti espresso pot. The coffee flavor was very smooth and I enjoyed sipping it slowly, while reading a book. I also tried it as an espresso shot, and the dark chocolate note came through even more pronounced. I highly recommend this blend. Thanks Octave Coffee!

I got the Lo-Fi; the lattes and americanos it made were delicious! Once I got it dialed in, it gave me consistent shots every time.

First time I tried Octave coffee it was a refreshing surprise. Theres so much bad coffee out there and every blend I tried (because I got the sampler) was amazing smooth and flavor full. I highly recommend it ❤️
I love how playful they are with the music genres 😁

Man oh man, I was able to get my hands on the hip hop blend and must say using a v60 made it a great experience.
Tea like notes really came through! Subtle.
Could taste that blueberry, not as much citrus as expected but lovely finish.
I also had a chance to brew some up with a splash of cream and noticed that the cream gave a nice balance didn’t throw off the profile much.
Would highly recommend the hip hop, excited to venture in some other blends and single origins.

Some of the best and freshest coffee I've ever had. Easy ordering and fast delivery. This coffee (Funk, Folk, Hip-Hop, Classical, and Grunge Rock so far) tastes so smooth and complex. Kinda like it was roasted this week instead of last year, because it was! (unlike the coffee beans I've been buying at the grocery store) Steve and company are so knowledgeable and friendly. The music themes on their coffee, their website and Instagram are cool, amusing, and actually informative. If you enjoy great, fresh roasted coffee, you owe it to yourself to try any of Octave Coffee's selections.

Ordered three whole bean bags, shipped very fast with great packaging. First blend bag done; on to the second one. Both bags have a strong yet smooth taste with no bitterness. Bean quality is excellent and good resealable (not twisted!) bags are a plus! Highly recommend!! :)
