Cotta Nostra offers espresso, matcha & tea lattes in Ahwatukee

☕️ Cotta Nostra, a small shop offering high-quality espresso, matcha and tea lattes, has opened behind Walgreen’s on the northwest corner of Chandler and South Mountain Parkway in Ahwatukee.

Owner Patrick Ohpark buys his coffee beans from Mesa-based Pair Cupworks, and the tea lattes are made with hojicha, a distinctive Japanese green tea roasted over charcoal.

The four syrups – dark brown sugar, miso maple, honey cinnamon, and French vanilla – are made in-house.

The 800-square-foot space only seats 14. A small selection of locally made pastries also is available.
