New Chicory Au Lait available all February long at the BP Coffee Bar!
What is Chicory? Chicory is native to Western Asia, Africa, and Europe. Chicory is a somewhat woody, perennial herbaceous plant that carries a similar bitterness found in coffee.
Why Chicory? Chicory was once used in parts of Europe as a coffee substitute, given the similar flavor produced when the roots are properly roasted. Chicory root was cheaper and more readily available, but it had the disadvantage of not having caffeine. When coffee beans became more widely available, palates informed by French influence enjoyed the best of both worlds.
The French then brought the tradition of Chicory Coffee with them when colonizing New Orleans. Many New Orleans coffees will contain both, with the flavors complementing one another. We've mixed the chicory into our Hirundo beans giving this coffee drink a very bold flavor highlighting different elements in the Hirundo blend that you've never experienced before!
