What does it taste like?
Green coffee has a much milder, lighter flavor than regular coffee, and when it’s made properly it has a bit of thickness to it. Some describe the taste as “grassy” or compare it to that of green or herbal tea, but it’s not quite the same. It’s also more acidic than roasted coffee.
