Novel idea, but not my cup of coffee
I do not write many reviews but the fact that this product is non-returnable and by it’s nature it’s success or failure is a matter of personal taste I will offer my observations.This item comes in a plain brown box with one label implying the box contains single serve packets of coffee concentrate. No other information that you might find on a food product. The box had been opened and re-taped.The single serve packets inside have a loose sticker on them stating ‘Top Roast Coffee’. These stickers tend to fall off or get stuck to each other.The packets are easy to open and do have a code stamped on them but no idea what it might refer to. I never did find a ‘best by date’ that was suppose to be supplied.Now to the coffee itself. I’m not a coffee snob, I will often throw yesterdays brew in the microwave with no complaints or pick up a Starbucks and wonder why it costs so much, but this coffee is weird. I’ve tried these twice and decided the aroma/flavor is smokey or like a vitamin pill.I use instant coffee when I’m traveling/camping. This will not replace what I’m currently using.I’ve given this product as much attention as it deserves. I hope this has helped some one make an informed purchase.

To all those who said it's too bitter: Coffee is bitter. Maybe you made it too strong.
I hated this product from the first sip; nevertheless, today I finally finished the 48th and 49th containers. I then proceeded to write a scorching review; in fact, I had come within one sentence of finishing my review, EXCEPT that there was ONE container left, so I decided to give it one more chance. I decided to do this because a glimmer of doubt had been raised by the many reviews that had said that it was too bitter. Too bitter? couldn't that mean that they had brewed too concentrated a brew? After all, coffee is bitter. Anyway, the final cup would be crucial, so I made it carefully. Into one 20-oz styrofoam cup (the usual size cup I use), I placed the contents of only ONE container. To that, I added half-and-half for cream plus sweetener. The result? a satisfactory cup of coffee. I wouldn't say that it was the best cup of coffee that I have ever had, but it was good enough to keep me as a customer.My mistake with the other cups of coffee I made was that I had used TWO containers per cup, and the reason I did that is that a cup is 8-ounces, so I naturally assumed that my 16 and 20 ounce cups would require a least two containers of coffee. That means, I guess, that I like my coffee much weaker than most people do. Anyway, my only regret now is that I ordered another variety of concentrated coffee before I made my 50th cup of this product. So, yes, I would recommend this coffee. It can't be beat when you include convenience into your considerations.

Will buy again.
Very convenient and tastes great. I do have to use two at a time to give me the flavor I need for 14 oz (still way cheaper than Starbucks Via). I make my coffee in pure milk and it's always such a delight. I'll buy again but will get 2 boxes.Would be nice if they offered a darker roast like Italian or Espresso as I prefer the bold flavors and their kick.

Awesome product! Easy to use.
Love this product. I used to make 2 shots of espresso then add it to ice and club soda to make a speciality drink every morning, but the ice would always melt. This concentrate is an awesome alternative! I can drink it sweet or unsweetened. Usually I’ll put a pump of vanilla syrup, ice, cold club soda from Trader Joe’s, then a packet or two of the concentrate depending on the cup size. The 30 oz usually needs 2, but a 20 oz doesn’t!

Iced coffee anywhere
This coffee is good! You can take these in your luggage and make ice coffee wherever you want. I use them in the airport and on the plane. I always travel with my metal water bottle. This works great I just put 2-3 packs in the container and use the bottled water filler and you get cold coffee. I usually get an ice coffee when the coffee shops open in the morning before the flights and then I have ice. I am very happy with the ease of use and flavor. I am going to give a box to my daughter who is in the Peace Corp in Liberia she is going to love it!

taste not bad. buy wisely no returns
I don't like this! first it arrived in a box, just a brown box. No company note, no logo on the box, nothing. it makes me feel like it was made in some basement with no further plan. Anyway, as far as the taste it is not the worse, it has the taste and after taste of instant coffee and I hate instant coffee so I hate this. I mix it with ground coffee since I can't return it.

Great product would recommend
I make a lot of frozen coffees drinks and these things are awesome! They are much cheaper than my K-cups and easier to travel with. I would not recommend drinking them by themselves (without milk etc) because they taste bitter. Great product! I have already ordered more.

Not everyone's cup of joe but pretty good
I'm not going to say this is the best cup of coffee I've ever had, but for the price you wont beat it. Love that I can keep a handful in the glovebox and have coffee at the ready without lugging a coffee pot around with me or making an extra stop (a coffee stop 2 times a day adds up because you never buy just the coffee) will definitely buy again
