Concord Grape Concentrate

First, research shows that concord grape has significantly more (up to 422% more) polyphenols than other grape juices. That in addition to it being the best tasting grape juice (imo) is worth the price IF the product is good quality.Second, this appears to be a good quality product. The flavor is exactly what is expected from concord grape. As far as dilution, if you do the recommended 7:1 water to concentrate it tastes great. If you water it down too much, it doesn't (as would reasonably be expected, it would taste watery).3. Confusing label - one reviewer wrote that her bottle said must be refrigerated and because it came unrefrigerated she threw it out. I wondered if she misread it and it said refrigerate after opening. When I got the product this week in 106° Tucson weather, I was surprised to see that it was labeled. Product must be refrigerated. Reading the fine print, it explains that it's cold processed and cold stored and as soon as you receive it put it in the refrigerator. Refrigerator. So apparently it's okay if it's in the heat for short periods of time. It's probably to keep it at its optimum. It also says that you can store the bottles in the freezer. It's probably because it contains enough natural sugar that it doesn't freeze solid enough to break the container? I wonder.I do recommend this product.However I would like it if it were organic and in glass containers. I do understand the reason for the plastic containers, but that doesn't mean I like them.

This stuff is awesome and convenient to keep on hand. (You can freeze these for long term storage until you're ready for 'em.). Easy to mix up a fresh batch (or just a cup) of grape juice when the mood strikes. The tart cherry juice is the bomb!

I reconstitute it into a 32oz glass bottle, mixing 3/4 C (or less) of concentrate with water to fill the 32 oz. Just shake the concentrate bottle really well to get it mixed before adding to the water. Just wish it was organic, as grapes (I've heard) have lots of pesticides and other chemicals sprayed on them. But maybe the concord grapes in NY are not treated so much. If anyone has info on this, would be nice to know!

This was supposed to be a refrigerated product. It arrived on the hottest day of the year. The bottles were very warm. I have not used it.

I've been drinking Welch's concentrated grape juice for years.When Welch stopped making it, I tried their regular grape juice. Yuck!I found another company on line that sold concentrate, but with the shipping was twice as expensive as Fast Fruit.I found that slightly more than 4 cups of water to a cup of concentrate is the same as Welch's 3 to 1, so this is less expensive.After I mix the first batch, I shake the bottle each time.The last batch, I put water in the empty bottle and shake to release as much sediment as possible, then measure that water first.The bottles are plastic, but the acidity cant leach chemicals.Shipping is the same day on weekdays.

The Grape is great especially if you have space restrictions.They do recommend refrigeration even before opening.

IF IT IS TRULY CONCORD GRAPE CONCENTRATE, IT IS THE LEAST EXPENSIVE I HAVE FOUND.I MIX HALF OF ONE OF THE BOTTLES INTO A 3 LITER BOTTLE AND ADD DISTILLED WATER.PROBLEM IS THAT THE RESIDUE IN THE FRUITFAST BOTTLES IS DIFFICULT TO SHAKE INTO SOLUTION.

My husband has been drinking Concord grape juice with breakfast every morning for the past 25 years. Finding Concord grape juice concentrate in the local grocery stores got to be a problem in 2019 and I still don't know why. I am thankful that FruitFast has this great tasting concentrate available! While not as easy to get as just running to the corner grocery, my order still arrived within a couple days of ordering. True Concord grape juice!
