The Tower’s Secret!
Share
In the world of coffee, many things happen fast:
A shot of espresso in 30 seconds, or a V60 in 3 minutes.
But at Billy’s?
In a quiet corner, there’s always something that catches your eye the first time.
A tall glass sculpture, looking like a tiny tower from another world.
Something happens slowly here… drop by drop… a secret that grows at its own pace.
This isn’t just any Cold Brew.
It’s coffee made in a cold drip tower — a device shaped like a glass sculpture from a museum, but behind it lies science and precision.
The secret?
This coffee is never boiled.
Cold water drips slowly over the ground coffee for 12–24 hours — no heat, no rush.
The result?
A smoother, more mature, and purer flavor than any coffee you’ve tried.
It carries natural notes: cherry, chocolate, almost like a fermented drink… but it’s coffee. Pure coffee!
Why is the taste so different?
Because cold extraction reduces bitterness, allowing every flavor to emerge gently.
The cold water doesn’t extract the strong oils that make coffee heavy…
So the texture is silky, and the taste resembles fruit syrup.
The little-known fact?
Not every Cold Brew is made in a tower.
What you see elsewhere is usually simple steeping in a fridge, without a controlled drip system.
The tower here makes all the difference — it regulates the drip speed, letting the coffee balance and mature as if simmered slowly… without heat.
For those who love the details:
-
The beans we use are specially selected, lightly roasted, with balanced acidity.
-
The grind is coarse, so the water flows freely.
-
The filter? Made from materials that don’t affect the taste.
And the customer who saw the tower for the first time?
He walked in, looked at it, and said:
"Is this wine? It can’t be coffee!"
I laughed and told him:
"No, it’s coffee… it’s just taking its time."
He took the first sip… and paused.
Then he said:
"I’ve never tasted coffee like this."
Since that day, the cold drip tower became a legend in Port Said.
One to one and a half liters are made daily… just enough.
People reserve their cups a day in advance. And if it runs out?
They wait for the next batch.
Why?
Because this coffee is made only for those who wait for something special,
and for those who seek an experience… not just taste.
At Billy’s, we don’t serve a cold drink…
We serve time, patience, and drop by drop, secrets.
And remember, the tower isn’t the only secret.
The secret is also in the hands of the one preparing it, pouring it, telling its story… and in you, deciding to wait for every drop, savoring it like the first time.
These are our secrets, and we love sharing them with those who truly love coffee…
Truly.
