Java House Cold Brew Coffee On Tap, (128 Fluid Ounce Box) Not a Concentrate, No Sugar, Ready to Drink Liquid (Colombian Roast)

I used to make my own cold brew, but when my dispenser broke, I decided to just switch to concentrates. I also got tired of dealing with all the grinds, so I wanted something premade or concentrated. I tried a couple of different cold brews available on Amazon, including the concentrate offered by Java house, in addition to several other brands’. Even when I made the cold brew according to the recommended ratio, the coffee was either watery, or had a gross taste to it. The Starbucks variety was fine, but overly expensive for what you got. Then I tried this boxed Columbia brew. It is a little more expensive than some of the concentrates, but given to you at the perfect concentration (imo, very strong even with ice. Coming from someone who drank 4 espressos a day before switching to cold brew). The taste is also WAY smoother, with a bold non-acidic flavor that can be enjoyed by itself or with milk. If you like to add a flavored creamer or syrup, it’s also smooth enough to not overpower that flavor It’s also incredibly convenient to just put in the fridge, and it lasts a little over a week for me (I drink about 1x 28 oz bottle a day). Definitely recommend

Great tasting coffee and so convenient in a traveler. Guests love it!

I have purchased this cold brew on and off for years and it is a wonderful value. The quality is great and I have never had issues with delivery or damage. That being said... WHY does this coffee taste like Peanut Butter? Like, I'll drink it...but why does it taste like I am drinking peanut butter flavored coffee? It is incredibly bazaar. It is the only thing that throws me off. I am going to try and purchase a different roast type (from Java House) and see if it is maybe just the undertones of this particular bean; which can totally happen! We shall see. It is ok, it just isn't the preferred flavor profile I am looking for. Thought I would let others know that you are not crazy if you experience the same thing.

Love this it tastes excellent and mixes easily. It’s also affordable so it’s a great choice.

For my experience: it def came with a tap. I didn't see any leaks as of, yet. I got Dec 22nd( if I remember correctly) opened Dec 25th. I never saw any leakage. If something does happen will comment. This is my coffee / fun project. I am trying different brands and or cheaper brands. (Cheaper doesn't always mean better). My goal is to have coffee from home 5 days a week and then 2 days at Starbucks. Yes, I am Starbucks girl sorry I used to work there. Can be expensive over time. This isn't bad. Now, I can't add shots or anything to that nature (if u had a machine u could). Unless if u have creamer/syrups at home u could. I am an as is person. I like my coffee strong. Taste wise I am happy with this. I have a 16 oz fl cup. I am keeping track of how many cups that will hold bc I am trying to make sure that I don't break the bank. So, far very happy. If any change occur will comment Update: Jan 4th: I have pretty much every day. I am ready for a new one and I am getting the bigger one. I have noticed that when it's cold it's bitter and when it's room temperature it's fine. So, if bitter I use a pinch of sugar, that helps. It's pretty strong to my liking. Dependant on one's budget u might want cream or sugar to go with this if too strong

Taste: 4 Stars Convenience: 1 Star Decent tasting cold brew coffee. Not quite as good as the Monster Java cold brew that I have purchased in the individual cans but the cost on those have shot up. Decided to try this as there is less packaging cost and less waste in a single container but I have limited shelf space in my fridge and the selling point for me was the built in pour spout on the NARROW side of the box. With the narrow side facing out as shown in the picture the box can be placed on the top shelf and can be used to dispense the coffee into your mug without moving or removing the box from the fridge. The box arrived with the pour spout safely tucked inside the box which is good for protecting it during shipping especially when shipped in a bubble wrap. The frustrating thing is that not only is there no perforated circle to punch out and feed the spout through but the spout is centered 3” from the bottom and wide side of the bag instead of the side you want facing the front for easy access. The container without the box of course would haphazardly roll around the fridge shelf like a ziplock freezer bag full of water most likely falling onto the floor at some point. Without a perforated hole or even a printed circle to cut out I had to measure the widest diameter of the plastic ring with a tape measure, grab a compass to draw an appropriately sized circle but even then I had to make the opening on the wide side of the box and there is no room in my fridge to place the box on the one shelf tall enough for it with the “convenient” pour spout potentially accessible. As it is now the spout has to sit facing sideways which not only makes it inaccessible from using while sitting in the fridge but the spout is just in the way for placing anything on the shelf next to it or against the wall. So even AFTER having to manually measure, trace a cutout circle and grab a utility knife to make the pour spout accessible I still have to pick up the box, move it to a kitchen counter top somewhere that is too low for conveniently using the pour spout. Packaging Design department: You had one job to do. Make the pour spout accessible for use from the narrow front side of the box while it remains in the fridge.🙄

I personally like this product, Java House Brew Coffee on Tap. I keep it in the refrigerator & use it when I’m in a hurry. I have a percolator too which is the coffee I normally consume. But changing out the grounds for fresh coffee may take me a few days to get around to doing. So my fall back is this product; or if I’m in the mood for cold coffee this is a great product to use, imo. I like the flavor & can even heat it if I choose to do so.

I think it was in the storage too long it tasted horrible
