You might enjoy Japanese iced coffee. I find that cold brew tastes the same no matter the quality of coffee (therefore great for lower quality coffees) where as Japanese iced coffee retains the original notes of the coffee.

Is it any different from espresso fredo? In South Korea they drink iced americano, which is espresso dilluted with water and then dilluted with ice. In Greece I always drink espresso fredo as most shops will make a good cup and frappe is just not my cup of coffee.

  It's a pour over method [1] You can also use a regular drip machine though. Use half the normal water. Add the equivalent ice (by weight) to the flask. Brew as normal, but turn it off as soon as it's finished. The slow drip of hot coffee is cooled immediately as it hits the ice. Since the brewed coffee is cold, you can add extra ice to your cup without it melting and diluting the taste too much. Adjust the water / ice ratio as desired.

    I wonder if extracting the coffee with half the water and then diluting it gives a different result than just brewing at normal strength?

      It is different but still tastes fresh and robust
