Fat Miilk

Based in Chicago, Fat Milk is an artisanal coffee company slinging some of the best Vietnamese brews around. Here, it’s all about the hyper-caffeinated, bold, and earthy bean variety called robusta. To make traditional Vietnamese coffee—called cà phê sũ’a đá—they recommend brewing the beans slowly, pouring the liquid over a glass filled with a mound of ice, and adding a nice splash of condensed milk to finish. Each of their four roasts features different tasting notes, from nutty and bold to caramelly and balanced. Seek out their beans at area vendors like Urban Market, Uni Uni Bubble Tea, and Local Foods Market.
