NESCAFÉ Espresso Concentrate, Instant Espresso Coffee Concentrate, Sweet Vanilla, 1 Bottle (10 Fl Oz)

It’s fine but too expensive here

Impressed with this flavorful bottle that should save me some money. It tastes great can be mixed up well with some coffee, heavy whipping cream and caramel drizzle to make a wonderful homemade coffee creation. Didn’t need to add any other sugar to make it taste good. Will definitely purchase again for such a great price. Such a boost of caffeine and the 100 mg in 1 tbsp will go further for us. Didn’t need to use the full suggested 2 tbsp here.

I drink almost exclusively cold brew coffee and rarely have time to brew it myself so have purchased many concentrates, instant powders, and ready to drink varieties at my local grocery stores. Our of all of those, there have only been a couple of the concentrates that I liked, but they didn't seem to be very concentrated and were rather pricey. And then, I found this product and fell in love. I am not an instruction/direction reader so when I made my first cup with this Nescafe concentrate, I filled my solo cup up about 1/4 of the way before adding oatmilk and thought that I was going to choke becauseit was far goo strong. And I like strong coffee. This is TRULY concentrate and so requires an astonishingly small amount to get the perfect cup of cold brew coffee. The taste is great, the price is incredible given the how many cups of coffee can be made from such a small bottle, and it's convenient to store. One other thing that I really appreciate is it's portability. My sister lives in a very small town in a very rural area. There is only one grocery store there and if they have cold brew, it is only one variety of ready to drink. I could bring bigger and bulkier kinds with me but they all require constant refrigeration and I don't usually bring a cooler with me. This little bottle fits neatly in my suitcase (I drive, so I have no idea whether airlines would allow it) because it is shelf-stable until opened, and then once I open it at her house, it takes up only a tiny bit of space in her fridge. Convenience, great taste, excellent value,and portability make it perfect for me.

I travel to really rural and remote places for work where I have to bring all my food, including my luggage the max weight is 100lbs, and these are perfect for my needs. Drip coffee does nothing for me taste wise, tried the Korean coffee stick pouches and not even those work. Initially, the size threw me off but it really is a strong, syrupy liquid that does the job. Good, smooth espresso taste that blends as an iced espresso.

More economical than Starbucks concentrate. I like Starbucks, but it costs more per bottle, only has 5 servings at the recommended 6-oz serving size per 12-oz glass, and is so watered down that the recommended serving size is weak. Really, I only like it straight or on the rocks, so a bottle only gives me about 3 servings. A bottle of Nescafé has 20 servings at the recommended 2-tablespoons per 12-oz glass. That serving ratio is stronger than chugging Starbucks straight out of the bottle. It makes you sit up and bark. If you care, note that it isn't cold water extract. It's very strong espresso. Ingredients include baking soda to extend shelf life and neutralize the acid. Coffee lovers with sensitive taste buds may taste the baking soda. A serving has 2 grams of protein. I don't care about the baking soda flavor, if any. I mix it with a protein drink or chocolate flavoring and use concentrate to get the caffeine without the acid. For a gourmet coffee experience, I don't recommend any brand of liquid concentrate.

I just tried this today, and it is so much better tasting than the powdered instant coffee I was using. I prefer iced coffee, and it is so nice to have a liquid concentrate because I don't have to worry about getting powder to dissolve in cold water. The powder I was using would dissolve, but the taste was either weak or just awful (if I added more to get more caffeine). I mixed 2 tablespoons of this with some non dairy creamer, oat milk, water, and a bit of sweetener (that probably wasn't necessary). Then I added ice. It tastes great. It's not bitter. It has a good, strong coffee flavor. It was easier to mix. This is probably more expensive than the Nescafe powder, but I would be willing to pay it to have decent coffee since I don't use it everyday. It's still inexpensive compared to a lot of other concentrates, and it comes in a small bottle that's easier to store. I will have to try the vanilla next.
