Favourite instant coffee

If you would rather drink frogspawn than coffee where you haven't lovingly harvested and ground the beans yourself, maybe move along to another thread.

If you do drink instant coffee, what's your favourite one?

I'm coming to the end of a jar of Illy Classico which was good, but thinking I might switch it up if anyone's got any suggestions?

Nestle espresso

Won't drink any other instant and prefer this to real coffee most of the time

je préfere Le Nescafe! 😁

yup that azera stuff is amazing

I don’t like any of them now! Does anyone remember there used to be a Starbucks instant coffee that came in a really small hockey-puck-shaped tin and was quite expensive and possibly only available in Waitrose? I’d say it would have been circa 2013ish.

It was absolutely gorgeous and we even did a taste test and no one could tell the difference between it and a real Starbucks coffee. I will forever mourn its existence. The current Starbucks instant coffees taste like crap to me.

I think that the nescafe espresso is so much nicer than the azera!

LorettyTen · 24/10/2024 12:41

Nescafe Azera Americano

TipsyBrickPanda · 24/10/2024 12:42

I use Costa or Tesco Finest, both good.

Azera Americano

This one

BowTiesPinkTail · 24/10/2024 12:44

L'or Intense (the purple one). It's the only instant coffee that seems to hit right.

Goody2ShoesAndTheFilthyBeast · 24/10/2024 12:46

Milicano. Which my autocorrect keeps trying to change to Militant.
It's not a great coffee but it's the only instant I like. Sadly, I'm tighter than a gnat's chuff so I only stock up on it when tesco have it on offer.

I'm currently on "Specially Selected Colombian Instant Coffee Strength No 4"

Nescafé gold blend smooth. Big jar is €11 here though 😣

LadyMcLadyface · 24/10/2024 13:05

Dougwe Eberts or Lidl Bellarom Gold - the decaf version of the Lidl one (blue lid) is also good!

GasPanic · 24/10/2024 13:06

Alta Rica

This is what is currently in the cupboard

I love cheap stuff!

Usernamesarenoteasy · 24/10/2024 13:21

I only drink Tesco's finest columbian coffee no. 4.
I absolutely love it.

Hatty65 · 24/10/2024 13:23

Another vote for Azera Americano. And I do love a proper coffee, too, but Azera is really good.

mitogoshigg · 24/10/2024 13:29

Whatever is in the cupboard, I'm not an instant fan but do buys it and occasionally it's convenient
