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.

I was very excited about these lattes (Matcha, Macadamia and Oat) as I am an alternative milk and coffee drinker. Overall I found these to be too sweet and a bit thick in texture. I tried heating them up and they were actually less sweet somehow and more enjoyable. If the sweetness was reduces or balanced a bit more these could be a win. Hope they keep tweaking the flavor as the idea and adaptogens are awesome.

Love the Matcha latte flavor! Delicious, no sugar, and just the right amount of caffeine.

I love coffee in all forms, so I was excited when the chance to try Taika came along. I am a big fan of anything macadamia, so I bought the Macadamia Latte and tried it. It's got the right amount of sweetness with no aftertaste. I also like the fact that it's zero sugar. I'm not sure what was floating around in it, and it seemed to be a little bitter, enough to start to overpower the macadamia taste. Given the other zero sugar options on the market, I would probably take a pass on this. I'm waiting for the adaptogens to kick in. I'll follow up with more details if I notice anything.

Love the convenience of grab and go coffee and the variety of flavors offered by the company. I opted to try the basic oat milk latte and thought the taste was okay, but had a slight aftertaste that wasn’t ideal…overall it seems like a less sugary option but wouldn’t be the first one I’d reach for.

I tried the macadamia latte flavor - the flavor was great and I love having a dairy-free option. My drink did have some clumps which I didn't love. (I shook it a bit, but didn't see anything on the can about shaking, so I didn't shake super aggressively). I didn't notice any effects from the adaptogens, but I thought it tasted great, so I'd definitely have it again.

Very yummy - i could not believe there was zero sugar. It is naturally filling and sweet.

This was a good tasting drink and it was fun to try the matcha flavor. The taste was good but I am still deciding if I would purchase again.

I tried the mocha latte and it was pretty good. At first it tasted a bit odd to me I think due to the macadamia milk, which I’m not used to. However, it started to grow on me the more I drank it.

I liked the taste of this. I think I had more energy afterwards without the caffeine effect I usually have with coffee in the afternoon.

I tried the Mocha latte. It had a nice chocolate coffee flavor and was very smooth. It’s nice that there is zero sugar. The caffeine gave me an extra energy boost.

Overall, I liked this product for the ease and to have something on the go but only reason I can't give 5 stars is that it just doesn't compare to an actual homemade or coffee shop made beverage.

I got the mocha latte and I have to say this was a very delicious drink. I will be buying this product again and recommending it to others.

It was easy to find the product at the local Sprouts. Nice size can, good price crv too high. The drink itself was flavorful and tasty. I would buy it again. Thanks for the chance to try it free!

I got the macadamia latte and it was delicious! I also recommend this coffee for the adaptogen benefits. I'm looking forward trying other flavors.
