Goa’s Best Kept Secret? This Coffee Liqueur Might Just Be It!

Move over feni, there’s a new Goan treasure in town. And no, it's not a beach shack or a sunset spot only locals know. It’s Ticonnie – a coffee liqueur so rich, so smooth, so shockingly affordable, we had to double-check the price tag (twice).

You’ve heard of Irish coffee. You’ve tried Kahlúa. But what if we told you that Goa is hiding something even better – something that blends its tropical soul with deep, bold coffee flavour?

Meet Ticonnie: Goa’s Liquid Gold

Goa is known for its chill vibes and party scene, but tucked away from the rave lights is this under-the-radar gem – Ticonnie Coffee Liqueur. Crafted with Goan ingredients and brewed in small batches, this bottle is what happens when your favourite espresso shot gets a boozy upgrade.

Not many outside Goa know about it (yet), but unsobered is here to spill the (coffee) beans.

What Does Ticonnie Taste Like?

Alright, let’s get to the fun part: the sip.

We’re not sommeliers, but here’s what we got when we took a whiff and a sip (okay, a few sips):

  • First nose: Aromatic coffee with a deep roasted profile.

  • On the palate: Rich dark chocolate, caramel swirl, and a punch of bold, freshly brewed coffee.

  • Aftertaste: A gentle, warming note of rum. Think of it as a Goa beach bonfire wrapped in velvet.

Every sip makes you feel like you’re drinking a mocha at midnight – with a mischievous twist.

How Should You Drink It?

Pro tip: Serve it chilled. Either keep it in the fridge or pour it over ice. No mixers, no drama – just pure caffeinated bliss. If you’re feeling adventurous, mix it into your espresso martini or drizzle it over vanilla ice cream for a boozy affogato moment.

Wait… What’s the Price Again?

We’re still recovering from the sticker shock.

  • In Goa: ₹660 for 750 ml (Yes, you read that right.)

  • In Mumbai: ₹1750 for 750 ml (Still worth it.)

For something this smooth, this well-crafted, and this flavour-packed, the pricing is absurdly good.

So, Why Haven’t We Heard About This?

That’s the real mystery. Maybe Goa just didn’t want to share? Or maybe Ticonnie has been quietly winning hearts at backyard barbecues and hidden cafés while we were all chasing global brands.

Well, not anymore. The secret’s out. And now, it’s your turn to try it.

Summing Up

If you love your coffee dark and your drinks bold, Ticonnie is the bottle to add to your bar. It’s not just a liqueur – it’s a conversation starter, a late-night companion, and the Goan souvenir you didn’t know you needed.

So the next time someone asks, “Got anything interesting to drink?”, hand them a glass of this magic and say:  “Let me introduce you to Goa’s best-kept secret.”
