Answers about Snow Fox single-origin cold brew, NYC membership, whole-bean coffee, and shipping.
Snow Fox Coffee is a New York City-based specialty coffee company offering single-origin cold brew concentrate and whole-bean coffee. Our flagship offering is a monthly cold brew membership built around carefully selected coffees, controlled production, and direct delivery in eligible New York City areas.
Snow Fox Coffee approaches cold brew as a specialty coffee product rather than a conventional ready-to-drink beverage. We use specialty-grade, single-origin coffee, avoid preservatives and heat sterilization, and maintain refrigeration throughout production, storage, and delivery. Our direct-to-consumer model allows us to prioritize the character of the coffee rather than the requirements of traditional retail distribution.
Specialty-grade coffee is distinguished by its quality, carefully evaluated through professional sensory assessments and physical inspections. Traditionally, coffees earning 80 points or higher on a 100-point scale have qualified as specialty grade.
Evaluators assess characteristics including aroma, flavor, acidity, body, balance, and aftertaste, while also examining the beans for physical defects.
Specialty-grade coffee can come from many growing regions. What matters is not simply where the coffee is grown, but the quality of the beans, how they are processed, and the characteristics they express in the cup.
At Snow Fox Coffee, we exclusively select specialty-grade, single-origin coffees for their distinctive flavor profiles and quality.
Yes. Snow Fox Coffee was founded and is based in New York City. Our whole-bean coffee is freshly roasted in NYC, and our cold brew concentrate is produced locally and delivered directly to customers throughout our eligible NYC service area. We also ship whole-bean coffee nationwide.
Our coffee is produced in small batches with careful attention to every stage of the process. From selecting and roasting our beans to brewing, filtering, and bottling our cold brew concentrate, we emphasize quality, consistency, and hands-on oversight rather than mass production.
The membership model is an extension of how we make our cold brew. Without preservatives or heat sterilization, it has a limited refrigerated shelf life. Direct delivery lets us manage more of the journey from production to consumption, while predictable monthly demand helps us plan production. Rather than designing the product around traditional retail distribution, we designed distribution around the product.
Our cold brew begins with carefully selected, freshly roasted single-origin coffee. It is steeped in water under controlled refrigeration, then filtered and bottled. The process uses no heat sterilization or preservatives and is designed to preserve the coffee's distinctive origin characteristics.
Snow Fox cold brew is produced without heat sterilization or chemical preservatives. Refrigeration is essential to maintaining product safety and quality. Our cold brew is kept refrigerated throughout production, storage, and delivery and has a 30-day refrigerated shelf life.
We believe the coffee itself should define the drinking experience. Heat processing can alter a coffee's flavor characteristics, while preservatives introduce ingredients beyond coffee and water. By maintaining a controlled cold chain, we can produce a cold brew containing only two ingredients without relying on these conventional shelf-life extension methods.
Unlike many commercially produced cold brew beverages, Snow Fox does not use preservatives or heat sterilization to extend shelf life. Our cold brew contains only two ingredients: specialty-grade coffee and water.
Instead, we rely on controlled refrigerated production, filtration, and a continuous cold chain through delivery. Our 30-day refrigerated shelf life reflects this production process and our commitment to maintaining product quality without additional processing or preservatives.
Single-origin cold brew is made using coffee from a particular geographic origin rather than a blend of multiple origins. Growing regions, varieties, and processing methods contribute different flavor characteristics. Snow Fox explores those differences through our Origin Studies, highlighting the individual character of each selected coffee.
Cold brew concentrate is brewed at a higher coffee-to-water ratio than conventional ready-to-drink cold brew. Snow Fox concentrate can be served over ice and diluted with cold water or milk to your preferred strength. Each 32 oz bottle provides multiple servings, depending on preparation.
