Last Updated: 2025/12/26, Mocha coffee as one of the oldest coffee in the world, the origin of mocha coffee has long been synonymous with coffee, its unique chocolate aftertaste is repeated, can be described as: aftertaste around the beam, three days in the mouth. Mocha coffee is a variant of Caf Latt, and like the classic caf Latt, it is usually made from one-third espresso.

Mocha coffee as one of the oldest coffee in the world, the long-standing mocha coffee has long become synonymous with coffee, its unique chocolate aftertaste is repeated, it can be said: "the aftertaste is lingering for three days."

Mocha is a variant of Italian Latt é. Like classic espresso, mocha is usually made of 1/3 espresso, Caff è Espresso and 2/3 foam, but it also adds a small amount of chocolate. It can be said that mocha is the most fancy kind of espresso, which can add cinnamon and cocoa powder, and is no longer a simple coffee. It has less foam than a latte and is replaced by milk, whipped cream and chocolate.

The ratio of coffee, milk and milk foam in the latte is 1:8:1, so it can be said to be a cup of coffee without burden, and it can drink the warmth of milk, like a cup of milk coffee, but with the smell of coffee when drinking milk, a lot of milk and foam reconcile the thick taste of Espresso, its gentle taste is most favored by female consumers. Finally, it is concluded that the main difference between mocha coffee and latte coffee lies in the ratio of coffee + milk + milk foam. In taste, latte coffee drinks milk with coffee flavor, while mocha coffee has stronger coffee flavor and chocolate aroma. No wonder so many coffee gluttons list mocha as their favorite.

The appearance is different, and there are a few details in the figure:

1. Cappuccino has thick foam and the edge of the cup, but lattes are not needed.

2. According to the physical picture, the cup of latte is bigger than the cappuccino cup. (this can increase the amount of milk)

The three coffees of the former WBC (World barista Competition) are: espresso (espresso), cappuccino (Cappuccino), and creative coffee. The competition stipulates that the foam thickness of cappuccino is not less than that of 1CM. Cappuccino in some foreign countries can be divided into dry cappuccino and cappuccino, the difference is the question of how much milk, I will not say much here.

[taste difference]:

Both cappuccino and latte have foam, and both require a lot of foam. The foam of the card is more, the proportion of milk is less, and the taste of coffee is more obvious. When drinking, it is recommended to stir the foam back into the cup and remix the milk coffee (because the basic foam and milk have been separated after the coffee is ready to serve, the taste of drinking foam alone is not good.) Milk and coffee are mixed with milk bubbles to fill your mouth. You can feel sweet without sugar.

The latte has less foam and more milk, so the overall feeling is that the taste of milk is heavy, so in previous races, cappuccino can taste the coffee better, and the latte is a bit like milk with coffee flavor.

Through the above pictures and text, you can easily distinguish between latte, cappuccino and mocha. In general, lattes are coffee-scented milk, while mochas are more coffee-flavored, with a bit of chocolate, while cappuccinos are frothy and more coffee-flavored.
