Nescafe Gold Espresso Jar 95g

I have diabetes and don’t do cream and sugar. I drink black coffee but it has to be pretty good since I don’t have cream and sugar taking all its faults away. That rules out most all instant coffee and I’ve tried a lot of them. Most are awful and none are as good as a cup of even just decent drip coffee. This one is pretty good though. I’ve tried it espresso strength and cup strength. Black it doesn’t really taste like espresso when brewed at that strength but it would work fine in a sugary milky drink, iced mocha or something. Even mixed at a very high ratio of water to coffee it’s not that strong tasting. It’s pretty inoffensive. I also tried Cafe Bustelo espresso recently and that stuff is offensive. Enough cream and sugar can make it okay but black it tastes like when you brew a pot of coffee, drink half of it and leave the rest on the warmer for a long time and come back and microwave a cup of that burnt nasty coffee in the afternoon. That’s what Cafe Bustelo instant espresso tastes like. It’s very offensive and it has this strong nutty taste to go along with the burnt taste I guess from all the Robusta beans in it. It’s not 100% Arabica like this one. I think I like the Starbucks instants better than this one but this coffee is in that league. The Starbucks instant coffees are pretty good. I always liked the Via packets okay but the price was offensive on those. The medium roast in the newer cans is pretty good black. I don’t hate it. I haven’t tried the Blonde or Dark yet but I have them. Those tins don’t seal well and I know from experience that the micro ground coffee in them will get stale over time especially once you open the package. The stuff in the cans is much cheaper than the Via packets but still kind of expensive. I don’t know that I will buy this Nescafé again because it’s imported and expensive, but it is cheaper than Starbucks instant when you compare the weight. They sell Starbucks at the store though. I do like the finer consistency of this Nescafé Gold Espresso powder. It’s easier to measure than the big airy clumps of freeze dried coffee that vary in size so much. It tastes pretty good too, for instant.

I love this stuff, it’s got a great, smooth espresso flavor, and can be as strong or weak as you like. It’s super easy to use, I just put it straight into hot milk and it blends right in and even has a crema on top.

This instant coffee is easy and simple to make. Tastes delicious!

Great flavor. I no longer brew coffee at home. Love the convenience.

Very smooth for instant coffee, but for me it worked better with cream and ice like for an iced coffee. Maybe would not be my first choice for hot coffee, something about it was not working for me, for reference I prefer a smooth, nuttier blend with some sugar and a bit of cream. For cold coffee with some vanilla and some cream it was pretty tasty….but I did add more to make it stronger than what was suggested.

When you want a good cup of coffee. This is it!!! I originally bought this product to start making iced coffee. It is so good until I haven’t made an iced version yet. The coffee is rich and has a full bodied taste. It’s portable and convenient. All you need is hot water. No coffee maker required. My coworkers also enjoy this coffee. It is so good until I keep one at home and work. Whether you like your coffee light or strong. You simply adjust the by the amount you use. The quality of the coffee ,ease of use. And the convenience of carrying it in a decorative jar. That can be used as a glass for a cold cup coffee drink. On top of it all. You will be surprised by the amount of cups you’ll make. This product is an unbeatable value. I would rate this coffee a 10 star. I love this stuff!

This is amazing tasting espresso but I probably use a bit more than the average person. I add 1 heaping spoonful plus about another 1/2 spoonful then I pour 8 oz of hot water over it & stir it really well. I also add a good amount of Italian Sweet Cream coffee creamer to it. It's strong and sweet and super smooth tasting. I love it! It's a great way to start my day. That being said, holy cow it's waaay tooo expensive buying it here on Amazon. I paid $19.99 and today I saw the very same thing in the very same size jar at my local grocery store for half of what I paid here on Amazon. I'm not buying it from Amazon anymore that's for sure! I kind of feel like I got played. I'm on Social Security and I can't afford to pay double for things. Having a great couple of cups of coffee in the morning is important to me but not for double the price of what my local grocery store charges. It makes me pretty unhappy to find out that I paid double the price. I guess I better start checking my local stores first before placing an order from now on. It's quite an expensive lesson to learn.

I’m in a coffee group and I seen a lot of post regarding this product over the page in comparison to normal instant coffee. I gave it a shot and personally I like the flavor of normal instant coffee this is light flavoring compared to espresso. I may just really like the flavor of coffee but it wasn’t necessarily for me.
