Cold brew coffee has become the new whiskey. Have it on the rocks like you would a single malt or mix it with something to break the taste like you would a strong-flavored scotch. Whatever you do, make sure you try the new Sandows Cold Brew Coffee -- in whichever way you like -- and thank us after the summer is over.

The London-based Sandows brand takes after a Victorian dude by the same name -- not only did they take the vintage looking elements from their muse, but the characteristics as well: rigorous testing to create the perfect taste.

And of course, there’s the packaging and branding. The stunning overall look of the bottle combined with the fact that this is a fuel most of us need every morning already makes the Sandows Cold Brew Coffee a winner.
