Doritos chips are a classic party snack, known for their crispy texture and cheesy, tangy taste. But, Doritos is a brand that doesn't like to just stick to the original flavors. They're constantly coming out with new flavor combos to mix things up for their consumers, such as the sweet & tangy BBQ they launched in 2023 .

While some of these Doritos new releases might get your mouth watering, there's one flavor that you might not quite be able to wrap your head around – Doritos Coffee flavor. These Doritos debuted in July of 2024, although they were exclusively sold in Australia. The afternoon snack was rumored to have the usual Doritos flavor at first bite, but as you chewed, it started releasing coffee notes.



It also had a slightly sweet finish, adding to the strange flavor combination of the snack. The coffee flavoring gives them a unique brown tinge making their appearance notably different from the classic orange-colored snack. Why Doritos came up with the idea of a coffee-flavored snack Although coffee and Doritos might sound like an odd pairing, the company actually had its reasons behind the launch.

Three-quarters of Australians are coffee drinkers, and a fair chunk of those have more than one cup a day. The country also has quite a booming coffee culture, with plenty of craft cafés to be found all over the country serving up lattes, macchiatos, cappuccinos, and other types of coffee . Unfortunately for many Australians, a good number of cafés close in the aftern.
