At Norse Code, we believe that great coffee is all about precision — and that’s exactly what our pioneering brew process delivers.

Our Cold Filter Brew process, pioneered by Gordon Howell, delivers precise extraction and clean flavour, avoiding the bitterness sometimes found in traditional cold brew, iced coffee, or espresso.

By controlling every parameter — temperature, flow rate, and extraction time — we capture the full complexity of specialty coffee while maintaining a silky, smooth profile. This innovation ensures maximum flavour and consistency in every batch of Norse Code liqueur.

What Makes It Different

Traditional cold brew and iced brewing methods can sometimes over-extract or leave coffee tasting flat or bitter. Our process, known as “Cold Filter Brew”, uses cutting-edge filter coffee technology to achieve precise, consistent extractions — but at a lower temperature, and with carefully tuned parameters.

The result?

Exceptionally Clean Flavour: Smooth and refined, with no harsh bitterness

Maximum Coffee Character: Captures the full depth and complexity of our single-estate, specialty-grade beans

Perfect Balance: A natural sweetness and clarity that elevates every bottle of Norse Code

Why It Matters

This innovation allows us to get the absolute best from some of the world’s finest coffees — roasted in Yorkshire and brewed with precision — ensuring that every sip of Norse Code Coffee Liqueur delivers the flavour, balance, and smoothness we’re known for.
