Miles ★★★★★

I brewed this with a splash of milk and it genuinely tastes like the top of a crème brûlée, caramel first then a soft vanilla finish. Smooth enough that I've stopped adding sugar, and it doesn't go bitter if I forget it on the counter for a few extra minutes.

Claire ★★★★★

This one nails the crème brûlée vibe perfectly—it’s rich and smooth without being cloying, and the caramel comes through in the first sip. I’ve been brewing it black in the mornings and it’s sweet enough that I don’t even reach for sugar.

Charlotte R. ★★★★★

The first sip genuinely tastes like a crème brûlée—that caramel sweetness comes through without any sugar added. It’s smooth enough to drink plain, but I’ve been adding a splash of milk for a dessert-like afternoon treat that I look forward to every day.
