I was skeptical being it’s made of figs. But it smelled great, so I made a cup. It’s chai heaven in a cup!
Love the rich taste and that it is 1/2 caf!
I got the roasted fig and mesquite blend, and I love it. I recently discovered mesquite through a company that shall not be named (I'm not a fan and they're overpriced) so I was looking for a good alternative, and it's surprisingly hard to find roasted mesquite for brewing like this. I'm glad I found this, it definitely meets my needs! I love the taste and that you don't have to use as much as you would with regular coffee. Happy to support FigBrew.
Doesn’t really taste all that good not very strong, but it’s OK
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we're sorry it didn't meet your expectations. We generally try to describe our Mellow Mix as a smoother, mellower version of coffee, so if you are use to drinking a very strong brew this blend wouldn't be right for you. If you are still looking for a way to drink coffee without the side effects we recommend trying out the pure fig coffee supplement. This can be brewed alone but in this instance you would be able to mix it with your own coffee grounds in a lower ratio to achieve a blend that is stronger while still lowering the caffeine and digestive uses of the coffee.
It's ok. I get no fig taste/affect at all
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. One of the amazing things about our fig is when mixed with something with a stronger flavor you primarily taste that. So when mixing with coffee like in our Mellow Mix you primarily taste the coffee just a bit mellower and smoother. We tend to see this as a feature as opposed to a disadvantage but everyone preferences are different. We recommend our pure fig in our Coffee Supplement 12oz bag in order to get that Fig flavor.
Received the sample product as expected, and it was packaged very nicely and sustainably. I followed the directions using the amount of product to the quantity of water and brewed as I would my coffee. I found that it was not as rich and flavorful at those ratios. I feel I would need to use two or three times the product to create a rich and flavorful beverage. That makes the product a lot more expensive of course and I do not think I will be purchasing again. I was looking for something to add to or replace coffee eventually, but I guess this isn’t it.
Thank you for giving our products a try, we're sorry it didn't meet with your expectations. Our roasted Fig products are crafted to give a similar level of dissolved solids as coffee. Our products are more concentrated than traditional coffee and a 1/3rd of the cost of traditional coffee (with coffee prices rising, our products may even be less expensive). Our recommended serving size is based on the average consumer, if you prefer your cup a little stronger, you may need to use a little more - the lovely thing is that you can adjust as per your preferences. Thank you again for your feedback.
This creates a great brew. I prefer a mix of Carabello Coffee out of Newport Kentucky, quite the marriage of flavors. Without giving up any experience of flavor we get less acid, less caffeine and we are able to enjoy knowing this blend is far more sustainable than our love of coffee alone.
Thank you Fig Brew
I love my coffee but for health reasons needed to cut back on the acid as it was irritating my stomach. I mix some Figgie into my morning coffee and it tastes good and really helps reduce stomach irritation.
I was initially very skeptical about trying Figbrew, especially after being disappointed by other coffee substitutes/alternatives. But I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious it is!
Now, I keep the powder at home and use the K-cups at work—they’ve become part of my routine. I’ve also discovered that the other product lines, like their cacau, pairs wonderfully with coffee or chocolate liqueur for special Sunday coffee.
Another great bonus I learned from speaking with the owners is that I can use their Figgee product to create my own blends. This lets me reduce my coffee intake while still enjoying our morning rituals.
This tastes excellent! It is honestly better than coffee! The price is better than competitors and the product is better.
Excellent
Such a pleasant change from regular coffee and contains protein too for the energy you need. I usually just brew it alone and enjoy it several times per day.
I also plan to share samples with a few friends here.
I did not care for the taste of fig brew. I made the mistake of buying enough so that shipping would be free but I should have just bought the sample pack and not wasted my money. I disliked the taste so much that I threw out a majority of my purchase knowing I would not drink it.
I was using the refill fig brew, but this seams to be the same. I mix both the beet and the fig with equal parts of my regular coffee and I love the way it taste. I don't need cream in it anymore.I also don't have the negative effects of too much caffeine.
I have tried other coffee substitutes but none of them had the flavor of FigBrew. I really like that it is brewed the same as regular coffee, not just an instant powder.
I invited a friend over to try it and she went home and ordered a bag!
I think it taste just like coffee, I was trying to get away from coffee because it causes me problems and it won't keep me awake, so it's a win win. I've been ordering since about October and I like it really well.
The personal sachets are a bit tricky to stabelize on a mug.
Not a fan of the sludge and it seems really weak in my K-cup. I will continue to experiment after the holidays & give more feed back. Thank you.
I love the taste and it also smells beautiful. I am pregnant and have no energy. I was hoping this drink helps me get some energy to go through the day and it really does!
A nice simple flavor of fig. I like to add cranberries and a bit of sweetener when I make a cup rather than cream and sweetener.
This brew was pleasant. It has a subtle earthy flavor from the beets that compliments the sweetness of the fig.
This brew was extremely bitter. I couldn’t get any notes of cinnamon or other spices. Even with a decent amount of cream and sweetener, it only mildly resembles chai.
The bold coffee flavor is complimented by the subtle fruity, sweet flavors from the fig. The arms of the packet seem like they will fit a standard sized mug best, though, I was able to hold it securely over the mug that I used.
My only complaint is that the tear off part comes off a bit too easy. I have a lot of spilled grounds at the bottom of the bag.
I love it! Makes my coffee taste better and no tummy issues.
