Q: If the only ingredients are coffee, water and baking soda where does the 2gm protein come from?
submitted by Beginner Oiler - 5 months ago
A: Great question! Because this is a concentrated amount of espresso, the protein content is higher than in a normal cup of espresso. We hope this helps!

Black is more versatile.
The espresso concentrate is a great quick espresso. A tablespoon into milk for a quick latte, or into ice water with a splash of cream for a quick iced coffee.

Do not buy if wanting instant hot espresso
Bought this last weekend. Was looking for an instant espresso powder and thought I'd try this concentrate. I did not read the instructions on how to make it and was deeply disappointed when the only instruction was for cold drinks, not hot espresso. I tried it last night with hot water, worst espresso I've had. Will likely toss the rest of the bottle. Nescafe should add bolder verbiage on the main label to clarify it's for cold espresso drinks only.

Great in milkshakes
I have been using this in vanilla ice cream milkshakes. It turns them into a great coffee milkshake

Go ahead and get it!!
I have tried out more store bought iced coffees, concentrates and powders in my lifetime than I have fingers to count. This is THE MOST delicious, rich, and full bodied latte/coffee flavor you’re going to get out of a non coffee shop drink that I’ve ever found. It is so bold and combines with the milk to form a rich coffee drink taste that can even withstand a creamier/thicker coffee creamer so you still get flavor. I used almond milk for reference. And for only $10!!! Don’t wait any longer!!

Love it!
This absolutely the best! I am addicted to it. I make iced coffee lattes. You won’t be disappointed in this product at all. It is alittle pricey, but what isn’t. I have bought 4 bottles so far.

Sadly, do not recommend...
I was excited to find this product but it disappointed me. It has very little flavor (other than bitterness). It’s lacking the needed acidity that gives cold brews and lattes their characteristic flavor and taste. Nescafé needs to go back to the drawing board on this product.

Taste bad
This tastes disgusting. It has a grainy texture and has a burnt like taste. This is not what good espresso is supposed to taste like at all.

Amazing!
This is STRONG! I love to add it to coffee when I need the extra caffeine. I also make it into iced coffee. A little goes such a long way. It does get sticky and hard to open once you use it a couple times so I recommend wiping the top after each use.

No thank you! Terrible!
I was skeptical but hopeful. Sadly….Terrible taste! I am not sure why there are so many good reviews. The flavor profile is nothing like an iced espresso. Better to continue to make your own, even if you can only make extra strong coffee because you do not have an espresso maker. Sorry Nescafe, this did not in my opinion create a nice rich flavorful drink.

Great addition to my regular coffee
I add a tablespoon to my coffee when I need an extra boost. It actually makes my coffee taste better.

Literally so good
I saw this on the shelf and was interested, but pulled up the Target app to check the reviews before I bought it. It had such high ratings that I was almost skeptical, but figured I’d try it out. Let me tell you, the reviews are SO correct. I’ve been using instant espresso (powder) for a while now, but this is better. Is it as good as something you’d pay $7 per drink for at a coffee shop? No. But for easy at-home espresso and iced coffee, this is a home run.

Love!
I love this concentrate. It lasts so long and I love that I can control how strong I make the coffee. Also saving money because I can customize it how I like by adding my own syrups or creamers! Definitely would recommend to anyone who is tired of spending money buying coffees from a shop!
