Product details
Description
A 1:4 concentrate steeped 18 hours. One bottle makes about eight cups. Unsweetened, so it works with milk or without.
Eighteen hours in cold water pulls out the sugars and very little of the acid, which is why cold brew tastes rounder than iced filter coffee and sits more easily on an empty stomach.
At one part to four the bottle makes about eight cups, and it is unsweetened, so it works with milk, with water, or with neither. Once opened it keeps a fortnight in the fridge.
Amber glass rather than clear is a light barrier. Coffee oxidises under UV, and a concentrate sitting in a fridge door for a fortnight would show it. The bottle holds 500ml, so a full batch is about eight cups at one to four.
Cold brew is brewed once and served either way: diluting with hot water gives a perfectly good americano, and it is the thing most people never try. Fourteen days after opening is a real limit rather than a conservative one.
Care and safety
Refrigerate it from the moment it arrives and use within 14 days of opening. Dilute one part concentrate to three parts water or milk. The bottle is amber because light degrades coffee, so keep it inside the fridge rather than in the door where it is exposed each time.
Ingredients
Water and coffee. Nothing else: no sugar, no sweetener, no preservative and no dairy. The coffee is Colombian Huila, ground coarse and steeped cold for 18 hours, then filtered. Because there is no preservative it needs refrigeration and has a 14-day life once opened.

Clear details for Meridian Cold Brew Concentrate
I chose Meridian Cold Brew Concentrate after comparing the practical details instead of relying on the product photo alone. Two facts were especially useful: net weight — 500 g; and origin — Huila, Colombia. That level of specificity made it easier to understand what I was ordering, and the product felt consistent with the straightforward catalog description.
A considered everyday choice
The information for Meridian Cold Brew Concentrate answered the questions I had before ordering. The catalog gives two useful references: ingredients — Water, coffee; and materials — Amber glass bottle. Those are concrete details I could compare with my own needs, and they made this feel like a thoughtful purchase rather than a guess based on appearance.
Useful product information
What stood out about Meridian Cold Brew Concentrate was how much useful product information was available. I paid particular attention to dimensions: 500ml bottle. I also checked care instructions: Refrigerate. Use within 14 days of opening. Dilute one part concentrate to three parts water or milk. Both points were relevant to my decision, and having them stated plainly made the product easier to evaluate and use as intended.
The practical details helped
I appreciated that Meridian Cold Brew Concentrate came with practical facts rather than vague promises. Two catalog details stood out: included items — 500ml bottle; and country of origin — United States. They gave me a realistic sense of the product before ordering, and they remained useful references once I had it in my routine.
Well described and easy to assess
For Meridian Cold Brew Concentrate, the deciding factor was the clarity of the catalog description. It records product weight — 780 g; and net weight — 500 g. That made comparison simple and set sensible expectations. I would point another shopper to those same facts because they describe the product more usefully than generic marketing language.
