Taika earns largely positive reviews for creamy, zero-sugar canned lattes and matcha that deliver a smooth, jitter-free lift, with macadamia milk, adaptogens (L-theanine, ashwagandha, lion’s mane), and standout flavors like Macadamia Latte, Mocha, and Matcha. Reviews also flag inconsistent texture (clumps/chunkiness), diluted or weak flavor—especially matcha—and occasional bitter or artificial-sweetener aftertaste, making performance and taste variable across cans.

A different texture than what I was expecting. However, the taste was pretty good.

The flavor was off putting. It reminded me of if you left a tea out for a few days and then came back to drink it. The rawness of the nut milk provided an unpleasant mouth feel.

Good taste with a nice flavor, and very good chilled

I'm not sure if it was the flavor I chose, but I wasn't a fan of this coffee. To me, the Mocha tasted like a sugar-free hot chocolate, but cold. I would have liked a little bit of sweetness, and craved that latte-foam you get with some other canned coffees.

I liked the taste of this product but it had a weird texture to it that I couldn't really get over. Unfortunately I will not be buying this again.

I enjoyed the matcha latte with macadamia milk as an afternoon pick-me-up at work. It’s nice. Has the right amount of sweetness, an earthy matcha flavor, and a creamy texture. I like that adaptogenic mushrooms are added to provide functional benefits, though I didn’t notice anything different after drinking. I’ve had matcha many times before and this was good but not my absolute favorite. I don’t plan to purchase this product again. But it might be up your alley if you enjoy specialty beverages and have dairy restrictions.

It was actually pretty tasty! I typically do not like coffee products, especially bottled ones, but this one had a light feeling in the mouth and was not bitter but also not overly sweetened.

These were super tasty!!! Loved the macadamia latte the most :) I like that it has functional ingredients in it as well, and 0g sugar!

Didn't love the taste, not bad but wish it was a bit sweeter!
It’s not my favorite but it’s also not the worst. I would drink it again because of the benefits. Now I am a little immune to caffeine as much as I drink it and if you’re anything like me, this will give a little boost of energy but not too much.

taika coffee is interesting. the flavor is great, especially when you consider there is NO sugar but still tastes like there is a real sweetness. even though there is 100 mg of caffeine, it is still so energizing! i didn't get any feeling of over stimulation or jitteriness, just a nice natural feeling boost of energy. the texture is extremely off-putting. the can was shaken prior to opening and there were still 'chunks' in the coffee? personally, i am a huge texture person so the textures really threw me off. overall, i still recommend trying taika. the benefits far outweigh the con.

I really like this matcha! I love trying new branded canned or bottled matches whenever I don’t have the time to make it myself at home. Sometimes, I don’t want to finish an entire one because it’s either too sweet or chalky. This one had a great balance of sweetness and Matcha flavor, and it had a little bit more of an earthy aftertaste, it was definitely one I could finish.
I enjoy the taste of matcha - I find it relaxing and calming, which makes it such a unique addition to a coffee drink which usually has the opposite effect. One might expect the flavors to clash, but I found the drink to be fairly tasty and satisfying. I had this in the afternoon and felt it helped me avoid the slump I often have after lunchtime. The only thing I would change would be to try to have a bit lower of a price point.

I love anything matcha so I’m not surprised I like this but attractive packaging. Reasonable pricing for a drink like this in comparison to other brands as well.

I tried the black coffee so I could make my own ice coffee with my own flavors. It a nice a balanced coffee I would say medium roast. I love the added adaptogens, I was concerned it would make my coffee taste funny but it didn’t. Price is kind of steep for a smaller sized can of coffee so not something that I would get on a regular but I find that my local Sprouts often has different deals on brands that I like so would grab when on sale.

We tried the mocha latte and quite enjoyed it. I like the nutritional facts, good enough to have these regularly. Will definitely try some of the other flavors.

I was skeptical of this because a lot of canned coffee drinks I've tried have been awful, but I really enjoyed the Taika mocha variety. The macadamia filk was creamy & smooth, the coffee flavor wasn't too strong or bitter & the chocolate notes from the mocha were perfect. They're currently very hard to find in my area, but I'd love to buy more regularly when they're more widely available.
