Rizz Score · Dark Chocolate · Berries · Brown Sugar

Rizz’s Take: One of the few specialty roasters to offer a cold-brew-specific blend — roasted and profiled specifically for slow cold extraction. Ethiopia and Brazil develop dark chocolate, berries, and brown sugar that deepen beautifully over an 18–24 hour fridge steep. Smooth, strong, and deeply chocolatey with a surprisingly bright finish. Rizz’s pick for summer cold brew, full stop.

Overview

Coffee Bros. Cold Brew Blend is one of the few specialty roasters to offer a cold-brew-specific option. Most roasters just tell you to use their dark roast for cold brew — Coffee Bros. actually designed this blend around the cold extraction method, choosing beans and a roast profile that develop their best qualities through a long, slow fridge steep rather than hot water extraction.

Why a Dedicated Cold Brew Blend Matters

Cold brew extracts differently than hot brew — it pulls fewer acids and oils but more sugars and certain flavor compounds. A blend designed for it will have a roast profile that accounts for this, leaning into sweetness and body rather than brightness and acidity. Coffee Bros. specifically chose Ethiopia for its natural sweetness and Brazil for its chocolate depth and body — both develop beautifully in cold extraction.

Flavor Profile

Notes of dark chocolate, berries, and brown sugar that develop beautifully over an 18–24 hour fridge steep. Smooth, strong, and deeply chocolatey with a surprisingly bright berry finish. The specialty-grade beans mean you’re getting genuine complexity in the concentrate — not just caffeine and bitterness. The most impressive cold brew result Rizz has tested from any specialty roaster.

How to Brew It

Coarse grind, 1:8 coffee-to-water ratio, 18–24 hours in the fridge. Strain through a fine mesh filter or cheesecloth. Serve over ice — straight concentrate for maximum intensity, diluted 1:1 with water or milk for a longer drink. The concentrate keeps in the fridge for up to two weeks.

OnlyCoffeeFans Verdict

The most impressive cold brew result from any specialty roaster Rizz has tested. Dark chocolate, berries, and brown sugar in a smooth, concentrated brew that beats any coffee shop cold brew at a fraction of the price. Rizz’s summer pick — and dangerous stuff once you’ve had a glass.

Best for: Cold brew enthusiasts, summer coffee drinkers, and anyone who wants to make café-quality cold brew at home without the café price tag.

Pro Tip: Coarse grind, 1:8 ratio, 18–24 hours in the fridge. Strain and serve over ice — add a splash of oat milk or chocolate almond milk to amplify the berry and chocolate notes. Make a big batch Sunday night and you have cold brew ready all week. The concentrate keeps for up to two weeks refrigerated.
