Starbucks Iced Coffee: Italian Roast

Italian Roast

Product Type: Coffee Drinks; Container: 11 fl oz (325 mL) can
BevNET Review: Starbucks’ latest entry into the RTD iced coffee is designed to replicate the taste of iced coffee rather than a latte, as their Frappuccino line does. The 11 oz. can has less of a premium feel than that glass-packaged product, especially when considering its plain silver design. In addition, the name "Iced Coffee" sounds rather lowbrow in comparison to "Frappuccino.” On the inside of the can, this product is exactly what is promised on the outside -- Italian Roast coffee with milk and sugar. It's rather bitter, with a mild amount of milk and sweetness. Overall, it's a decent beverage, but it's not something that we're overly excited about given the bland packaging.

Similar to the better Japanese iced coffee drinks

Living near a Japanese market where they stock over a dozen different varieties of iced coffee in-a-can, I was looking forward to the Starbucks version to see how well it holds up. It's very similar, and about as good as you could ask for; some of the imported drinks have tinny or non-dairy off-flavors, but not this one. Can't fault it, it's what it should be and no more.
