I’ve tried them all, and this one was the best!!
I have tried all the Califia Cold Brews, and a few years ago, I fell in love with the black medium roast unsweetened. Smooth, full-bodied. good strength, not at all bitter, wonderful flavor. I turned on my critical-coffee friends, and they all fell in love with it as well. But we have noticed for a little while now that it’s not the same. It’s is weaker. Almost watered down. Just not the same richness of a medium roast. It actually used to be more rich… full-bodied, on the verge of medium-dark. Perfect. I’ve tried your espresso. It was bitter, not near the same delightful smooth experience. Blonde was way way too weak. Can you tell me what’s happened? Why the change? If it was just myself, I would question my taste buds changing, but it’s the Califia Fan Club of Cold Brew Medium Roast!

Don't Recommend!
Not good! This had a very acidic/sour taste. Couldn’t drink it even with sweetener.

So bad. It tastes like pencil shavings. Stokes is much better.

Sour
One of the worser cold brews i’ve tried. For their prices I just don’t understand it. Very sour, not smooth or balanced. Not much of a real coffee flavor either. When i added milk to it, it instantly curdled.. in cold coffee! Very odd, i am baffled that this made it through product testing

Was so dissatisfied with this beverage! Tastes awful. I recommend the Stok cold brew 100x more.

8.7/10
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When trying the Califia Farms Cold Brew Coffee I immediately noticed the cold brew by its smooth, non-bitter taste with hints of apple, caramel, and cocoa. I enjoyed its brew quality and freshness!

Delicious!!!
I make iced coffees at home often and this cold brew is a staple. It’s strong but not to strong and like that it comes unsweetened. For $5 you can make 5-6 iced coffees.

Best coffee ever
This is literally the best iced coffee ever. I also drink with Italian sweet cream and that's all I need. I've been buying it for years. Please don't ever stop making.

Fantastic!!
This is a must have in my house. It's not a strong coffee, and almost has the perfect flavor. It's one that I can drink black or with creamer. The price won't break the bank like some other brands either. I 100 percent recommend.

Taste like old burned out coffee from the bottom of a pot
When the market was out of my local favorite brand and any others I had previously tried instead, i bought this brand. I was stocking up for my family prior to my surgery, so I bought 8 bottles. I figured coffee was coffee, so how bad could it be? It was awful. I found the first bottle empty in my recycling bin. I figured others in my house drank it. I opened the second bottle and took two sips and had to spit it out. My son also poured himself some and had to spit it out. We unanimously agree. This was the worst coffee we'd ever tasted, including any coffee.I had made at home and accidentally burned. I had my son take the remaining bottles back to our local market for a full return. Would never buy again. I wish I could give it negative stars.

Yummy!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good code fast, not watered down like a lot of them. Mixed well with liquid creamers and made a tasty iced coffee for my morning! Only complaint was that there wasn’t enough!

Upsetting
I usually purchase Stok unsweetened dark/medium cold brew. One week it was out so I gave this product a go, and was highly disappointed. There is something I find odd about the flavor and not appealing to my tastebuds. In an attempt to not waste the coffee, I even tried mixing with the Stok product I get but to no avail. I truly hate wasting food, but I was not able to finish this bottle after only two glasses of coffee.

Disgusting
This is so gross. I assumed it would taste like any other cold brew so I bought two bottles. I thought something was wrong with the first bottle so I tried the second one and same disgusting taste. I tried different creamers to make it tolerable but no—ultimately it was gross enough that I dumped both bottles and wasted money. Is it the “notes of apple” that make it taste so bad? I don’t know, but ew.

Strangest tasting coffee I've ever had
Normally love Califia products, their almond and oat milks are actually my favorite store bought milks you can buy. You can imagine my shock expecting this cold brew coffee to become another favorite to being one of the WORST tasting things I’ve ever tasted. What is going on here, Califia?? I don’t even know how to describe how horrible it tastes. It doesn’t take like anything a human should be consuming and has me a little concerned…is it a bad batch? Is it mold? Is it chemicals intermixed into the coffee? Something is NOT right…I am one to be able to finish food and beverages I don’t like, I legitimately cannot drink this without shuddering and spitting it out.
