CappioCold Brew Concentrate - 1 Pack | Smooth & Versatile Coffee Concentrate | Small-Batch Roasted | 16 fl oz

Cappio is truly an amazing, rich coffee. While it is stronger than the others it is not bitter and can always be diluted to your taste.Coffee is always a matter of taste. I have always been very picky about my coffee and only brew using French press because I have very sensitive taste buds. To write this review I undertook a thorough tasting of Amazon's available brands of coffee concentrates over a period of several months. I chose the concentrates because they come out to be much less expensive than their ready-to-drink counterparts.I ordered each brand's regular brew and, if the brand had it, their dark one as well. When tasting I only used them for iced coffee since most people use the concentrates for iced coffee. After tasting all of them I ordered them all again to see if what I felt about the different brands had changed. I eventually narrowed it down to the two concentrates that had the tag "Amazon's Choice." I made sure to measure everything that went into the coffees so that they were always identical including the concentrate, cold water, and creamers, half and half, and/or milk added. Each one was tested as a 16 ounce drink that was cold but without ice so I had the full experience of it and I had at least a dozen full glasses of each I tasted just to be certain the taste didn't change over time.Cappio won for me because it is rich and strong yet very smooth. Often a stronger flavor can have a bite which comes from acidity. Unlike the other Amazon's Choice, Cappio is a cold brew. Cold brews are noted for being less acidic. The other brand was listed as organic and not a cold brew but it seemed to have a slightly odd aftertaste, enough so that I noticed it with every glass. It did not remind me of any coffee notes I had ever tasted so it is hard for me to explain it. It just tasted wrong. It reminded me a bit of the metallic aftertaste I get from artificial sweetness though this was not metallic but every bit as distinctive. Also, while the Cappio is $1-$2 more for the same amount as the others, I found that the fullness of the flavor allowed me to dilute it further so the price comes out the same. Both brands state that you use one part concentrate to two parts cold water or milk. With the Cappio I would use 4 ounces of concentrate to 10 ounces of cold water and still had a strong rich coffee. I tried this ratio with the other brand and it was just watery.Overall, though, it was the odd aftertaste of the other brand and the rich flavor of Cappio that made Cappio win out for me. I love the Cappio's concentrate and won't be changing. I also found the Cappio concentrate to be less expensive if purchased in a multi-pack deal like this one.

Works nicely when blended into my espresso! Yum

this is NOT coffee syrup, this is just cold coffee. its liquid, not viscus or anything else. if you're buying it thinking its coffee syrup go elsewhere.i'm not a huge coffee drinker, so this has lasted me months and is still in my fridge so i cant attest to how long it'd last for someone who enjoys bean juice.it tastes fine, not the best coffee i've ever had by any stretch of the imagination, but not the worst.

I bought this concentrate to make coffee at home every day, and it does what it promises. It tastes like a neutral, unremarkable cup of coffee- but it isn't bad. You only get maybe 4 days worth of use out of each bottle though. I swore I'd be set for weeks with the huge 6-pack that arrived at my door but I am going to be back on Amazon soon enough looking for a better option. Meh all around.

Not a very good taste

When I first received the package it was in a cardboard box with fragile on the top and when I opened it was in an additional box with fragile on it. I opened them both inside each 6 glass bottles were wrapped well in bubble wrap with the card board separation piece between them all and additional thick bubble wrap underneath them to prevent breakage. Also as a little suprise is did NOT expect is they sent me a free glass cup with their brand name on it. Me personally I love cups I don't care what kind. It was cute. As far as flavor and strength I find this to be on the more mild/medium side in taste its smooth and not to bold or acidic, I personally think it's a tad to smooth I do like mine to have a bit of a bitter taste to it but for the price and the option to make my own ice coffee my own way I believe it's worth it. As far as caffeine strength I think it could be a tad higher. It took quite awhile for me to feel the more awake affect caffeine gives. Again price wise? Go for it. It's right in the middle it works out.
