Flat White





- Description
Created in Australia and New Zealand and has become a favorite for drinkers who want a balanced, espresso-forward cup. Made with a double shot of espresso and steamed milk it is textured into microfoam, creating a smooth and silky finish. What makes it unique is its velvety texture and a higher coffee-to-milk ratio than a latte, so the espresso flavor remains more pronounced. The milk is poured in a thin, even layer, leaving only a subtle cap of microfoam rather than the thicker foam found in other drinks. This gives the flat white a refined mouthfeel and a clean, polished look. Its flavor profile is rich and bold, with strong espresso notes softened by creamy milk. Compared with a latte, it is smaller, stronger, and less milky, while a cappuccino usually has more foam and a lighter texture. The result is a drink that feels both smooth and intense, ideal for people who want espresso character without the sharpness of a straight shot. In specialty coffee shops, the flat white is often valued for its balance, clarity, and elegant simplicity.
