The founder is a pal of mine! He exhibited recently at the Caffe Culture Show in Olympia, London. In a huge hall filled with all the complex paraphernalia of coffee-brewing and consumption, his stand was situated at the periphery, in the artisan foods section.
Interestingly, with all the bustle (and hustle ;-) of the main venue, this section - arguably, the most interesting - had relatively light traffic. But a few savvy people came by to sample this unique coffee (and other awesome products in the vicinity), including one prominent coffee critic/blogger. His opinion: a very interesting flavor profile that was too earthy; not enough acidity. My friend patiently explained that this is the intention: to preserve the natural 'sweetness' of the bean. The critic wasn't swayed, but I was delighted: at least his product had elicited a strong reaction!
Most significantly, many people mistakenly equated 'cold brew' with 'cold drip'. Huge difference!
Visitors tended to love it. Some came back for a second and third sampling. We gave away a lot of bottles...

- fractallyte 10y agoYes, I just mentioned it to him too! Thanks.
