This is the Suntory Craft Boss Not Sweet Italiano, featuring drip coffee blended with dark roasted “Italian roast beans” and a mix of plant-derived and dairy ingredients to achieve a satisfying milk flavour.
The beverage had an opaque medium tan hue and a fragrant dark roasted coffee aroma. When consumed chilled, the dark roasted coffee notes were immediately apparent, while the milk and minimal sugar effectively subdued the typical bitterness. This combination resulted in a lighter mouthfeel compared to full-sugar coffees, with a rich flavour that lingered into the finish, bordering on savoury. The aromatic coffee notes persisted without bitterness or a strong dairy aftertaste, accompanied by a brief astringency. Overall, this was a smooth, richly flavoured coffee with a refreshingly subtle sweetness, making it worth repurchasing.
