Kohana Cold Brew Coffee Concentrate, Organic, Original, 32 Ounce, Best Zero Calorie Low Acid Iced Coffee, Instant, Convenient and On The Go, Makes 16 Drinks, Single Bottle

The reasons Kohana Cold Brew Coffee receives five stars are the following: 1. Convenience. I pull the container out of the fridge; pour one part Kohana over crushed ice; add approximately two cups of almond milk; and a couple of teaspoons of Jordan Skinny flavored coffee syrups (found on Amazon). Fast and easy 2. Concentrated. Due to Kohana Cold Brew’s zesty liquid that packs a big punch, I only have to use two ounces to make my “move and groove” delicious, ice cold coffee. Therefore, this container will last for at least two weeks. 3. Cost. In the past, I would use two Keurig pods to make one “move and groove” morning coffee. On average, each pod costs approximately 50 cents (probably closer to 60 cents). So, that is a dollar a day. Over a two week period, my morning coffee created with Keurig pods costs $14.00. A bottle of Kohana costs $10.19 with subscribe and save; and this bottle produces 15 day’s of “move and groove” juice. No brainer - Kohana wins!! Why do Amazon reviewers claim Kohana tastes bitter? Most likely, these reviewers are mixing one part Kohana with less than the recommended two parts milk or half and half. The reviewers, like most of us, drink coffee to move and groove. As such, they put in too much Kohana; not enough milk; and the drink tastes bitter.

I was a bit cautious about ordering this concentrate, because I've ordered other brands in the past and they were very acidic and tasted bitter. However, I am so happy that I found this brand, because the coffee tastes great and the acid reduction process they use is truly a blessing for those of us who have acid reflux. Since this is a concentrate, it's important to note that you only need to use very little of it to make a great tasting cup of cold brew coffee. I believe the reviews that are saying it's bitter, are probably using too much concentrate, because it can taste very strong if you use too much. Due to my acid reflux, drinking coffee has been very uncomfortable over the last few years, but this concentrate gives me zero stomach issues. I'm very happy with my purchase and will continue buying more for the future!

Quick and easy and no bitter after taste.

I wanted a cold brew coffee concentrate that would be easier than making my own. When I opened this bottle, the coffee smelled burnt. There is a smell that really bad coffee has and I'm not sure how to describe it. But when I smell it, the coffee tastes just terrible. This has that smell. And the taste is even worse. I tried it anyway, mixed it as recommended, treated it like I have any other cup of coffee and it was undrinkable. I tried watering it down more, added more sweetener and milk, and it was still unbearably awful. I've tried several bottled cold brew coffee concentrates. There is only one that tastes great. The rest are extraordinarily horrible, with that same awful smell and taste. The only one I like is Califia Farms. But honestly the most delicious is the Rise Cold Brew which has nitrogen added. It's really expensive though, sigh. The other place I've experienced that taste and smell was Folger's instant coffee that someone left in my pantry. Not long after, I ran out of coffee and thought I'd try it. It was so terrible. Just horrid. This tastes and smells the same.

Purchased to make iced coffee at home. I didn't care for the taste of it. More so just personal preference. Seemed to be in line with other coffee concentrate prices.

I've ordered this about ten times now and it really does the trick. From what I've gathered it's about 80mg caffiene per ounce (this was hard to find, and a crucial factor in making a decision to purchase which is why I mention it). I will say it isn't as strong to me as it was initially... But considering I drink it 2x a day that's normal. It will give you a really strong buzz the 1st time you drink it. Great coffee, okay flavor and for the price you can't beat it! Will be ordering more.

I was so excited to get this due to all the great reviews but this coffee concentrate was underwhelming. I’m not sure if I just got a bad batch or something but it was bitter and no matter what I added it didn’t taste good. I followed the directions both times and tried adding creamer, sugar and even more water the second time I made it but still wasn’t good. I’m really not a fan of leaving bad reviews but 21 dollars for coffee I would hope it’s at least tolerable.

Personal tastes and their vocabularies vary, of course. But this is distinctive enough to chance trying. Now it is a favorite of mine, at least to mix with another concentrate. I'll just say that, diluted as recommended, it is a bit more pronounced than unconcentrated Stok Cold Brew Light & Mellow. Also, many OTHER brands way under-estimate the small amount of their concentrate required. Then needing to use more, to achieve a reasonable taste, increases their cost per serving. Kohana is good in that regard. For reference, my other brand favorites: #1 Gevalia House Blend, no longer available. #2 Top Roast, unavailable #3 Javy -- using #4 Christopher Bean, unavailable #5 Chameleon Black (only). Others not good, personally of course: Chameleon Expresso, Cool Brew, Coffee Snax, Bizzy, Cappio, TJ's (all variations), Stumptown, Califia, Groundwork. Cheers
