BotanistBotanist: Doc says no more caffeine. Took me 55 years to start drinking coffee and it became a morning routine. When I was informed to stay away from it or go decafe I did. But the dull taste and the chemicals used to strip caffeine away from coffee are a big turn-off.

I don’t try ANYTHING at will but the need for me was greater than I would control so I saw this Coffig and figured , why not try it. This morning, it’s been here 4 days already, I made the same de-cafe K-cup and again…bitter, not enjoyable and aftertaste. I put 1/2 teaspoon into my re-fillable K-cup and hit the button for a 12 oz brew.

I was so pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the first sip…. I sat down and wrote this stupid poetic review. But HONESTLY…it is excellent, tasty, smooth, not bitter no caffeine and the stuff is better for me than de-cafe coffee and it’s chemical laden soup.

I am not a reviewer…but when something suits me …and this coffig does, I’ll pass it on if anyone want to know….this is a great product. Even the Splenda has not odd taste for me

SatyaChaitanya: This taste like wood the a chlorine after taste. It taste Nothing like the reviews say. It might have fruit taste but if that taste is fig then it's awful. I wish that I had trusted the bad reviews on this item. I had to take down the order ID and call Amazon to be refunded the money. Make sure you call before a month if they offer a money back guarantee to on the item if you do not like it. They would not let me get the refund through the App. It requires you call Amazon Customer Service but from what I saw at this time their no longer offering a money back guarantee but that might change again if people like this product. Unfortunately I did not and make sure you buy a small quantity if you never had figs because you might not like and id their not offering a 100% satisfaction or you money back definitely do not buy except the small amount because you might not like and get your money back.

Milena P: Everything's an experiment in a sense... and this was no different. After reading the reviews, I purchased this original and the gold, and I posted a review over there that talks about the taste. It's not like good tasting coffee, though there is an element that resembles it. So I finally ordered some chicory - mine magically disappeared in a kitchen clean out - and that was the trick needed. It's my first cup of brew with the addition. One part Coffig Original, One part Gold, and one part or so of roasted chicory root, and I will work on the formula... I am definitely (though not at all perfectly) on my way to discovering a drinkable coffee substitute.

Just another listener: Update for 2/2022: I find that you can get more mileage out of your Coffig by letting it steep a long time. The longer it sits, the stronger it gets. You can also eat the grounds if you can't be bothered to sieve the drink after steeping.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This review is for Coffig Original Beverage, the one that is 100% roasted figs.

Pros:
- No caffeine.
- Ground figs have nice aroma. Seems odorless once brewed.
- Resealable pouch.
- Decent mild taste.
- Not bitter like actual coffee.
- The used grounds don't stink as real coffee grounds do. I like the smell of coffee. Used coffee grounds, not so much!
- According to the label, Keto Friendly!

Neutral:
- One of the few coffee substitutes that doesn't contain grain.
- Not as strong as coffee. Of course, coffee strength is a matter of preference. But if you're missing dark ​brew coffee, this may not be the substitute for you.
- It doesn't stand up to milk and cream as well as regular coffee. If you
want to make lattes, this may not be the substitute for you. On the other
hand, you need less milk or cream than you are used to.
​ - It is not instant. It must...
