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.

  • Good taste and good packaging

  • From the very first sip, Taika captivated me with its unique flavor profile. As a coffee lover, I was delighted by the rich, bold notes of their coffee blends, while the matcha offerings provided a refreshing and soothing alternative. Each cup was a symphony of flavors, carefully curated to deliver a sensory experience unlike any other. But as with any love affair, there was a catch—the price. While I was more than willing to invest in my health and happiness, I couldn't ignore the fact that Taika came with a premium price tag. It was a bitter pill to swallow, knowing that indulging in my newfound favorite beverage would come at a cost. Yet, in the end, I decided that the benefits far outweighed the price.

  • Delicious! I got the macadamia latte as I'm allergic to the oat milk flavors (they sound yummy, too), and was pleasantly surprised by the smoothness of this drink. Having it chilled also made a difference in how enjoyable it was. Would love to try new flavors, but this is definitely in my grab and go selections now.

  • has a really weird flavor profile. the matcha flavor isn't so present, but the macadamia milk is, and the flavor of that is a bit offputting. $3.50 for this flavor isn't worth it. the texture is also chalky

  • it tried the matcha latte. It tastes too sweet for me. I won't buy it anymore. But if you like sweety drink, it's still a good choice.

  • The Taika coffee tastes great except for the after taste! The texture takes a bit getting used to. The price point per can is somewhat too high in my opinion.

  • Great stuff. Would try again

  • It taste ok. But I really like the packaging and the design of the bottle. Not worth the money.

  • The flavors are great! I love having a plant-based coffee option for on the go. One can did have some remnants at the bottom of the can. The other did not and tasted perfectly creamy.

  • Has a smooth taste and has healthy benefits, which makes drinking coffee even more functional and guilt free. I wish it was creamier and richer. It tasted too bland for me. I like that it was sweetened with monk fruit but wish it was sweeter. I have a suggestion to make different levels of sweetness. Great for fueling your body but not as much of a treat.

  • Healthy alternative to not having to buy coffee from Dunkin or Starbucks and it tastes just as good; gives you enough energy without the jitters.

  • Tastes great. Not too sweet, creamy, not too bitter from the matcha. I feel both energized and focused. This is a great functional beverage that also tastes delicious.
