Tasting Notes by Cometeer

June 2026

June is here, and with it comes everything we love about summer: iced coffee season, long weekends, spontaneous road trips, and finding new favorites along the way.

This month, we're introducing something we've never done before. Sixteen countries. Sixteen coffees. One bracket. Plus, a few iced coffee recipes to help you stay cool while deciding which coffee deserves the crown.

Let's dive in.

🌎 Introducing the World Mug Collection

Meet the World Mug Collection, a limited-edition global tasting showdown featuring sixteen exceptional coffees from sixteen coffee-producing countries.

We've partnered with some of the world's most respected roasters to bring together an incredible range of coffees across roast levels, processing methods, and flavor profiles. Every coffee is precision-brewed to 10x strength and flash-frozen at -321°F, preserving peak flavor until you're ready to melt, taste, and decide.

Each collection includes two capsules of every coffee, arranged in a tournament-style bracket. You'll taste coffees head-to-head, rate each matchup in the Cometeer app, and advance your favorites round by round until a single champion remains.

Will a tea-like Ethiopian coffee take the title? A crisp washed Colombian? A rich Brazilian dark roast? There is only one way to find out.

As you rate the coffees, you'll build a personalized coffee profile that helps us learn what you love, making future recommendations even better.

Melt. Taste. Decide.

Four Ways to Drink Cometeer

Cometeer can be enjoyed in endless ways, but these are some of our favorite summer preparations.

Before you begin, thaw one capsule in the refrigerator overnight or place the entire capsule in a cup of hot water until fully melted.

Coffee Spritz

For when regular iced coffee feels a little too regular…

How to make it:

• Add ice and tonic to glass

• Top with a thawed Cometeer capsule
  

• Garnish with a citrus twist

Light, bubbly, and incredibly refreshing.

Iced Latte

For the one who always needs a treat…

How to make it:

• Fill a glass with ice

• Add 6-8 oz milk of choice

• Drizzle in a thawed Cometer capsule

• Stir and enjoy

Creamy, smooth, and ready in seconds.

OJ Americano

For the adventurous one…

How to make it:

• Fill a glass halfway with orange juice

• Add ice

• Pour thawed Cometeer over the top

Bright, juicy, and surprisingly balanced.

Classic Iced Coffee

For the purist…

How to make it:

• Add ice and 6-8 oz cold water to glass

• Drizzle your thawed capsule on top

• Stir & enjoy

Simple, refreshing, and exactly what you want on a hot day.

Coffee Corner

Why Do Some Coffees Taste So Different?

One of the most exciting parts of the World Mug Collection is experiencing how dramatically coffee can vary from country to country.

A coffee's flavor is shaped by dozens of factors:

• Origin (terroir, elevation, weather)
  

• Coffee variety (caturra, catuai, landraces)

• Processing method (washed, natural, honey)

• Roast style (light, medium, dark)

That is why one coffee can remind you of blueberries while another tastes more like dark chocolate or roasted nuts.

The World Mug Collection was built to showcase that diversity. By tasting coffees head-to-head, you'll start noticing patterns in what you naturally gravitate toward.

Maybe you love bright washed coffees with citrus acidity. Maybe you prefer fruit-forward naturals. Maybe you are firmly Team Dark Roast.

There are no wrong answers. The goal is simply to discover what tastes best to you.

And by the end of the tournament, you'll know more about your coffee preferences than ever before.

See you in the bracket.
