Blind Assessment

A ready-to-drink black coffee, tested cold. Date, almond, caramel, freesia, bergamot. Sweet-toned with gentle, round acidity; velvety-smooth mouthfeel. Richly sweet, gentle finish. Combined with milk, this cold brew is caramelly and nut-toned with a hint of spice.

Notes

The coffee tied for the second-highest rating in a tasting of ready-to-drink black coffees for Coffee Review’s July 2021 tasting report. Prepared by the cold-brew method, which involves prolonged steeping of ground coffee in cold or room-temperature water and subsequent filtering. Contains no additives or ingredients other than coffee and water. The green coffee used is a blend of washed-process (fruit skin and flesh are removed from the beans before they are dried) coffees from Ethiopia, Uganda and Colombia.

Bottom Line

A deep, rich, balanced and inviting cold brew, especially sweet and caramelly in the milk shot.
