Frozen Coffee
The refreshing side of coffee. Real coffee, served frozen, poured straight from the machine.
What is Chino
Chino is real coffee, frozen into a smooth granita and poured from a machine. Cold enough to stop you on a hot day, light enough to drink every day.
It is not
It is
The Chino Pour
No queue, no order, no barista. You take a cup, pull the lever and watch it spiral in. Fill to the Chino line, put a lid on, pay at the counter.
Clear cup so everyone can see what you're drinking.
Frozen coffee spirals straight from the machine.
Every cup is the same size. 500 mL.
Straw in, back outside. Fifteen seconds start to finish.
Why people come back
A real coffee base, not a coffee-flavored slush. You can taste it through the ice.
The machine holds it at the point where it's still pourable. That's the texture people remember.
Same recipe, same fill line, same price. No guessing what you're getting.
For store owners
We install the machine and keep it running. You sell the cups.
Where it comes from
Frozen coffee isn't new. On the Mediterranean coast it's what you drink all summer — from a kiosk, at the beach, walking home in the heat. Chino has been making it there for over twenty years.
San Diego has the same sun and the same coastline. It just never had the coffee.
We're placing our first machines in San Diego now. Convenience stores, gas stations, kiosks and beach shops.
