What People Are Saying About Java Juice®

"Getting your cup of joe on the road is easy, as long as you don't mind paying obscene chain-store prices or suffering through watered-down hotel lobby coffee. Java Juice eliminates the unappealing hassle of packing filters, brewers, and grinders. Just mix the 100 percent organic, kosher coffee extract with 12 ounces of hot water, and you've got coffee-house-quality black gold at your fingertips. Java Juice comes in liquid form, so if iced coffee is your thing, mix it with cold water and ice instead; unlike powder-based instant coffee, you don't need the hot water to dissolve the product. The packets even have a PSI rating of 190 pounds, so they'll take a beating in your luggage without dyeing everything dark brown. Ideal for backpackers, for obvious reasons, and it works well in recipes that call for coffee." —Outside Magazine

"Someone made a HUGE leap forward in backcountry coffee. Instant coffee seems like it came from the Dark Ages compared to this stuff. I do expedition adventure races, and have always struggled with how to get coffee out there with me...a thermos is too heavy, and stopping to brew is way too time consuming. Java Juice is amazing. As a coffee snob, I must say that if you like a good cup of rich dark black coffee, you'll be in heaven in the backcountry, or, the river, etc. Now I can carry a few packets with me, get hot water (always free) at the gas station, and I am set to go. Coffee house quality, coffee house caffeine, climbing bum price!" —Jason Magness- creator of The YogaSlackers.com

"So I poured my first cup this afternoon. Verdict: AMAZING! Whollopingly excellent brew of the gods. This is truly extraordinary. You guys are the saviors for all campers into the High Sierras who have had to diminish their spectacular mountain experiences and wanderlust to live with the coffee swill of those instant packages. Absolutely remarkable! World Class. As good as it gets! Bravo Bravissimo! I am going to try Java Juice Vietnamese style and believe it will be the Most insanely great beverage on the planet. Yowee! Your Newest Fan." —Lisa Thorell, FLA

"In a nutshell, our customers love your Java Juice Liquid Coffee Extract! The portability, ease of use, and speed with which our military customers, in particular, can put together a refreshing (canteen) cup of coffee is surpassed only by coffeehouse flavor and aroma. What an excellent hassle-free way to recharge the batteries on an exhausting and dangerous patrol. —Mike McCourt Director of Merchandising- Brigade Quartermasters

"New Year's Day, 2007 Afghanistan. "When I opened my package, your Java Juice® Pure Coffee Extract was in the box. I just wanted to thank you. First, it's cold here. I mean really cold. Nothing is better on a cold, windy Afghanistan night than a hot cup of coffee. Second, your coffee is really good. "Instant" coffee tends to be, well, pretty nasty stuff. But, the coffee extract that you sent is excellent. When I get home, I will be buying it. And third, getting something in the mail that you weren't expecting is like Christmas. Here in Afghanistan, we don't have much in the way of creature comforts. So getting some in the mail is a big deal. You generous gift is certainly appreciated. Once again, thank you very much." —SSG Ron Kohlenberger Mobile Patrol Camp Eggers, Afghanistan Operation Enduring Freedom

"I am an EMT and Firefighter in Rhode Island. The hospitals have EMS rooms where we write up reports. We never know how long the coffee has been sitting there. When I go into the EMS room I use the hot water from the water cooler to make a fresh cup of excellent coffee I also share my packets of Java Juice with my partners in the ambulance. You have a wonderful product that works great for EMT's who work 12-16 hour shifts and depend on good coffee to get through their day." —A. Pezza EMT/Firefighter Rhode Island

"Java Juice will now be appearing in my unit's drill hall, and will assume the dominant position in my field-coffee arsenal. I think that when you consider weight, taste, clean up, ease of preparation, no other field coffee technique can rival it. To compare it with instant would be ridiculous, and I'm done with playing around with field French presses or percolators. You've hit a home run." —Nelson Rosen, MAJ, MC, USAR - Surgical Team

" I truly do love your product. It's by far the easiest and best tasting extract I've ever worked with. The baking industry really needs to know about you!" —Joe Pastry Joepastry.com

"I was the envy of camp every morning as I sipped my aromatic cup of Java Juice! The highlight of my day in the Gobi Desert!! I brought to pass around and got rave reviews." —Terri Schneider - ultra endurance athlete

"Sip it don't chug it. Java Juice® is the port wine of coffee extract." —Martin Kirk, President - Bag Select

" I travel and decided "no more nasty instant coffee in European hotels".

I'm taking your Java Juice® packs on every trip now, just in case the coffee wherever I'm going sucks." —Gage Tarrant-CHT CBS

"While I was visiting my friends at Eco Park near Mt. St. Helens in Washington State, there was a gentleman hunting the area. I took some back to FT. Lewis for my soldiers to try. They couldn't get enough of it. It was the best coffee I have ever tasted. My soldiers loved it. I just wanted to let you know how great the coffee is." —SGT Claire Ball

"Java Juice makes individual packets of pure coffee extract; all you have to do to indulge is 'rip it, drip it, sip it.' I can imagine these things working really well on those mornings you're running late for work, and on those mornings when you are climbing Mount Everest! Java Juice is an eco-friendly, community-minded company-They're extract us made in the USA with organic Arabica coffee beans sourced from sustainable farms. " —Starr- managing editor, Joshspear.com

"I just tried my first cup of Java Juice and its awesome! I've never had anything since that tasted as good. There is no acid aftertaste. This comes close to my childhood plantation memories when we would pick the ripe beans, dry them in the sun like raisins, then boil the beans until there was a thick syrup which they then added hot water. I've been thinking about that coffee ever since. Thank you." —Lee Graf - Java Juice® Customer

"My current favorite use for the JJ is to pour half a packet over a glass full of vanilla ice cream, add a squirt of chocolate syrup and some milk. Stir it up good, and it's a creamy mocha shake. I just can't do that right before bed (I'm a caffeine weenie!)" —Addie - Backpackinglight.com

"Backcountry travelers have been searching the ultimate cup of coffee since cowboys roamed the Western plains nearly 200 years ago. French presses, Italian espresso, Swiss instant freeze dried or American cowboy style - you can have it all in the backcountry these days with a variety of gadgetry to make it easier and lighter. All you need are ground beans or instant freeze-dried coffee. Now, you can have concentrated liquid coffee extract, too. If Java Juice® is cold extracted, you'd never know it. This is a full-bodied, aromatic coffee.. I found it ideal for me, making a strong cup of good coffee, when diluted with about 10 to 12 ounces of hot water. It's also good cold, unlike the Styrofoam cup full of Conoco. Java Juice® has a one-year shelf life because there are no preservatives or additives. Just coffee and filtered water." —Ryan Jordan publisher Backpackinglight.com

"A smooth finish on the pallet, extraordinary to cook with!" —Christian Clegg- Executive Chef Promontory Point

"Only second best to an IV drip, Java Juice, a new coffee extract makes your next caffeine fix as instant- and as transportable and economical-as a Cup-o-Noodles. More gourmet and environmentally- friendly than its ramen counterpart, each packet contains a half-ounce of organic Arabica coffee. The liquid has a one-year shelf life and can be mixed with hot or cold water or milk, used in baking and cooking. Designed to withstand high air pressure and crushing, Java Juice® can be packed for travel, outdoor adventures, or simply taken to the office when bitter, burned Mr. Coffee brew becomes intolerable." —www.coolhunting.com

"My half-ounce of Java Juice® made two cups of Snow Peak cups. This stuff is climbing with me from now on!" —Tim Henry - A-16 Hard Goods/ mountaineer

"I've been looking for this stuff for a long time." —D. Baldwin, Owner - Idaho River Sports

"This stuff is really great! I'm primarily an espresso drinker and don't like most drip coffee. This stuff to me tastes better than drip coffee even that made from good fresh beans. I prefer my coffee strong so I add 6-8 oz water to make a strong "Americano" style cup. The taste is really good. It has no hint of "instant" coffee at all. The stuff is pretty amazing. " —Sharon Scott - Java Juice® Customer

""I love coffee. Let me rephrase that. I LOVE coffee. I own just about every coffee-making appliance for backpacking imaginable… I will likely never use them [French press, etc] again now that I've found Java Juice®. Bottom line: 98% as good as fresh brewed, with instant coffee convenience. As always, you be the judge. My opinion is only valuable to me." —John Holmes - Java Juice® Customer

" You really the nail on the head with this one! Not only is it a great product but also you can actually apply it to a hundred uses. This could wiggle its way into five- star pastry kitchens while also feeling at home in roadside truck stop. After giving it to a coffee snob to sample, along with myself and we both gave it the thumbs up. Good water- good beans = good coffee. …maybe someday I'll figure out how to get pastrami into a packet! " —Jason Stroh - Chef Owner Stroh's Gourmet

"Due to the concentration of the product and it's portability I consider Java Juice to be a viable application as a force multiplier for boots on the ground." —S.R. Elite Tactical Command

"I don't know much, but I know this. I LOVE THE PRODUCT! Is like fresh, strong coffee. Joan, my wife loves the product, 'do we have anymore of that Java Juice left?" she asked from under the covers. I had guests over for dinner last night I served the product after dinner, not saying anything to my guests. I pre-mixed it in the kitchen and served it in the dining room…everyone loved it so do I. " —M. Jahn Simi Valley
