I think the supplements and alternatives, which are mentioned in the article are a bit weird...I think those are sports-products, and not real alternatives to coffee.

I also want to reduce my caffeine/coffee intake, but I want to have the "same feeling" as when I drink coffee...

For this I drink the following: * My girlfriend showed me Caro Coffee (wheat-basis): http://amzn.to/2w8RhDu You make it like instant coffee with hot water (and milk/sugar)

* Yogi Tea (chocolate-taste) http://amzn.to/2wZCVSP Usually I drink this in winter.. But I'm not sure whether it is completly caffeine free.

* Eimalzin (malt-cocoa) http://amzn.to/2i3bTrs ok thats just cocoa.. still I like it from time to time

* Zotter (various drinking chocolates) http://amzn.to/2w5W7SD hmm very tasty! but a bit "heavy", so I only drink them from time to time.

But I am always happy to find good tasting alternatives to coffee... Do you have any suggestions?

Just a bit of nitpicking: Caro Coffee is made from roasted barley, malted barley, chicory, and rye; not wheat.

Wikipedia has a list of coffee substitutes[0], but the only one I know and can recommend is barley malt coffee, which you've already mentioned.

Check out Postum and Pero, the former being primarily wheat/barley, the latter mostly chicory.
