This is Stumptown Coffee Roasters’ Original Cold Brew, an unflavored, dark-roast ready-to-drink coffee in a single 10.5 fl oz bottle. Stumptown is a specialty roaster founded in Portland, Oregon.
What the label says
The catalog lists it as caffeinated, unflavored and dark roast, and the label carries a high-caffeine warning advising against it for anyone sensitive to caffeine or pregnant, and before bedtime. Check the bottle for the exact caffeine figure and ingredients, which can differ between Stumptown’s Original, flavored and milk-based cold brews.
Why roast level matters in cold brew
Cold water extracts sugars and roast flavours well and leaves much of the acidity behind, which is why dark roasts are common in cold brew: their chocolate and caramel notes come through clearly and hold up over ice and with milk. A dark-roast, unflavored cold brew tends to taste bold and smooth rather than bright.
Who it suits
It suits someone who drinks cold brew black, prefers a bold roaster’s style and wants a single grab-and-go bottle. Treat it as a strong coffee: one bottle is a full serving.
How it compares
