Mugshot Coffee. Bold brews, guilty as charged.

Bold brews, rich flavors, and unforgettable coffee moments in every cup. We are a specialty coffee shop pouring double-shot espresso, slow-steeped cold brew and bakes fresh from the oven.

A coffee shop with a record for bold brews

Mugshot Coffee started with one stubborn idea: coffee should taste like something. No watery cups, no burnt beans. Here is how every cup gets made.

  1. We pick the beans

    We buy arabica from growers we can name, in small lots, so nothing sits in a sack for months.

  2. We roast in small batches

    Medium-dark for espresso, lighter for pour-over. Each bag carries its roast date.

  3. We brew it to order

    Beans are ground when you order, not before. Every espresso is a double shot by default.

Life is too short for weak coffee.

Cold brew vs iced coffee: what is the difference?

Iced coffee is hot coffee cooled down and poured over ice. Cold brew never touches hot water: ground coffee steeps in cold water for 12 to 18 hours. That slow steep pulls out less acid and less bitterness, so cold brew tastes smoother and slightly sweeter, and it usually carries more caffeine per glass.

Pick iced coffee for a bright, sharp cup. Pick cold brew when you want something strong that is easy to drink black.

Light roast or dark roast: how to choose coffee beans

Roast level changes flavor more than anything else. Light roasts keep the taste of the bean itself, often fruity or floral, with higher acidity. Dark roasts taste of the roast: chocolate, caramel, smoke, with a heavier body.

If you drink coffee with milk, a medium-dark roast holds its flavor best. If you drink it black, try a light roast as a pour-over first.

Espresso drinks explained: latte, cappuccino and flat white

All three start with espresso and steamed milk. The difference is the ratio. A cappuccino is roughly equal parts espresso, milk and foam, so the coffee taste is strong. A latte has much more milk and only a thin foam layer, so it is mild and creamy.

A flat white sits in between: less milk than a latte, a very thin microfoam, and a bolder espresso flavor.
