The best cold brew in The Hague starts with the same beans the café pours hot: specialty-grade single origins. The difference is the method — long, slow extraction in cold water (12–24 hours) produces a smooth, low-acid concentrate that can be served straight, over ice, with tonic, or on nitro tap.

What's the difference between cold brew and iced coffee?
Cold brew is made by steeping coarse-ground coffee in cold water for 12–24 hours, then filtering. Iced coffee is brewed hot and chilled (or poured hot onto ice, Japanese-style). Cold brew is smoother and less acidic; iced coffee is brighter and closer to its hot original.
