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.

  • Its good but leaves mild after taste.

  • I drink matcha lattes everyday, so I was excited to try Taika's matcha latte with macadamia milk. I like that it's a slim can and that it has other healthy stuff in it, like MCT oil, ashwaganda, and mushroom adaptogens. It uses erythritol for a very, very light sweetness without adding sugar or calories. I don't like my drinks very sweet, so I appreciated that it wasn't. I would definitely try this again or some of their other canned lattes.

  • Absolutely delightful canned coffee. Had very good flavor, unlike some canned coffee I have tried previously. It was also not overly sweet, which I think is a plus. I definitely enjoyed this treat.

  • I tried the Match one. Not too grainy, liked the flavor. Mixed it with additional milk and the flavor still carried. Well done.

  • it was delicious. I like the nutty and creamy taste. Macadamia latte has a smooth texture and doesn't have the bitter aftertaste of as almond latte.

  • I love this latte! Love they use macadamia milk and the monk fruit as a sweetener (no aftertaste).

  • I really enjoyed the aesthetic of the packaging, it was eye catching and instantly got me hooked on what adaptogen meant in this product. I appreciate how the packaging explains what adaptogens are in the coffee and what their affects are. Even when I shook the coffee, it has a weird texture, as if all the ingredients were fully mixed. It also made my stomach sore for a bit after, I may have to try it again to get my full verdict. But overall it had great flavor.

  • Loved the Oat Milk Latte. I’m a huge fan of oat milk taste so I enjoyed this A LOT! Drink must be chilled….at room temperature it doesn’t taste as well.

  • Not super big on matcha so I wasn’t expecting to love these. I thought the latte was palatable. It has a nice texture and flavor but I’d recommend pouring it into a glass before drinking. I found the can had a metallic taste to it which was off putting.

  • I absolutely love matcha- whether it be a latte, chocolate, or even ice-cream. I had very high expectations for this drink and I think it exceeded my expectations. It has a good flavor and gives me the right amount of energy.

  • I love the creamy and rich macadamia latte. It is really interesting taste of macadamia milk with a bit of coffee scent. It is not as perfect as a real latte but it is still convenient on the go.

  • The macadamia latte tastes sweet and gave me a boost of energy. Remember to shake the can to make the drink homogeneous.

  • Taika's Matcha Latte made me want to try their other beverages. The flavor could be better but the benefits outweighed the flavor for me. It's perfect for when you need a little boost of energy and focus for productivity. I would recommend!

  • Sooo good!

  • This gets the job DONE. There was the right amount of caffeine without feeling jittery. The only reason why I am rating this 4/5 is because of the bitterness and aftertaste that I'm not used to with this specific matcha.
