Best Instant Coffees

Was recommended this as a cheap dupe Republica. It is definitely not. Almost undrinkable. I guess I have to go back to Republica despite how… Read more

expensive it is now. Will keep trying other brands to see if there's any hope out there for those of us who are cash-strapped. Oh, and it's also $8.

Absolutely the best coffee flavour ever – Please bring this coffee back. My daughter is holding onto her last 400g container of it, and has decided to finally drink it. She's sad it's no… Read more

longer available and so am I. It always sold out so why remove it for things like nutty flavours that not many truly find 'pleasing' Please please return the Vienna velvet back to shelves.. even if it's just the 400g ones. I will continue to order as many as I could.

It was really delicious... But now you've changed the flavour and it's not great.. time to find another coffee brand Show details

I'm so sad the green bean blend isn't available any more. I've had 4 friends searching their stores to no avail. Amazon says it has some but once you… Read more

try to order, doesn't let you. I've purchased the nescafe smooth but can't get used to the taste. I miss my green bean. I could drink it any time of day. Please bring it back, even if only on-line orders. Jill

I contacted customer service with a question about trying their Rich Roast Decaf, as I have a sensitivity to caffeine. The team was incredibly… Read more

helpful, attentive, and kind in assisting me with my request.As for the products, I am thoroughly impressed! The Earl Grey tea is absolutely amazing—easily the best I have ever tasted. The Rich Roast Decaf coffee is also a really nice, solid option for anyone looking to enjoy coffee without the caffeine.I highly recommend this brand for both their high-quality drinks and their wonderful care for customers!

I’ve now had the Lavazza Prontissimo Espresso sitting the fridge for several years and it’s as good as the day that I opened it! It definitely has a… Read more

unique, rich, chocolatey taste that seems to be complemented, I’ve just discovered, by topping up with pure cream and just a touch of raw sugar. Delicious! Let’s hope I can find some on the top, lone shelf of some little used supermarket.

Pure Milk – The only way to enjoy this coffee ☕ is to place 1. 1 teaspoon of raw sugar in a mug 2. Fill the mug 3 quarters full with Cold milk. 3. Heat in microwave for 1/1/2 minutes. 4. Place 1 teaspoon of Alcafe gold coffee, stir.

Coffee tastes good. However, through out the day, it leaves an irritation in throat. I tested this many times, in last 10 days. Inherently decaf… Read more

coffee uses lot of chemicals to wash away the caffeine, and probably some of that is irritating the throat lining. Just putting it out there for anyone else feeling the same, or for a new customer to have this consideration.

I think Robert Timms coffee is of good quality and taste. Consistently good and leaves me wanting more! Show details

Honestly, I’m not happy with this coffee. It has a strange aftertaste that reminds me of soy sauce. I don’t know if this is normal or if I got a bad batch, but I wouldn’t buy it again unless the taste improves.

I agree with the other persons comments, this used to be a fantastic coffee, when we started drinking it, many years ago, but it has lost its taste… Read more

over the last few years. It is certainly not worth the high price of $14.50, may need to investigate why they have changed the ingredients. I got two of my friends drinking it as well, they say the same, it seems to have lost the main body of what may it taste so good.

Un-potable – Instant coffee ☕in this country (Australia) is atrocious. Bushels coffee ☕ is only potable with pure milk & sugar. I don't mind paying for good… Read more

quality coffee but I expect flavour in return. The same applies for most instant coffee brands. Also make sure you add the coffee with the milk before heating in the microwave as it forms bitter coffee Lumps or granules.

Bland taste. Very disappointing instant coffee. Two stars only because I was feeling generous – Bland taste. A total disappointment. One of the worst instant coffees that I have ever tried. Think Pablo quality. Perhaps comparable to dishwater which I have not yet tasted, fortunately. Show details

Another complaint about the change to Nescafe Flat white. I made it sipped it and immediately thought this is too sweet. Checked the old box with the… Read more

new and sure enough 16% had become 11%. Massive disappointment and the perfect example of fixing something that wasn't broken. Now I have to ration my coffees. As a person who is solutions focused, is there another option that has retained the balance that the flat white used to have? For us foodies who have good palates, can you please return to the old recipe?

The label says "premium." The serving directions say "for a real coffee hit." But the ingredients show there's almost no real coffee in it: just 2%… Read more

"coffee extract", 6% chicory extract (found in imitation coffee substitutes like Caro), and the rest is sugar, colours and flavours to make it seem more like coffee.

As a customer I don't enjoy being lied to and I don't think others do either.

Delicious! – Love the Naked espresso. Gives me that boost I need first thing in the morning! Love it, my new fav :) Show details

This coffee is awesome Brazilian style instant coffee. Certainly better than the rubbish brands called Maccona Moka kenya, alcafe classic & Nescafe… Read more

blend 43, Vittoria & lavazza instant.The ONLY thing it disappeared from the supermarkets. Maybe Amazon has it.

Bitter – Most of the review is saying it was smooth and not bitter at all. I wish I could say the same, but my first sip was the complete opposite. Tempted to throw the jar away, but will give it another try, perhaps with less coffee.  Show details

The best coffee on the market until recently, or recent batch? from Woolworths. Bitter rather than the "dessert-like" aroma and taste I enjoyed… Read more

before, and creamy consistency. If this continues to be the case-to compensate for poor crop and/or higher costs and removal and/or replacement of ingredient/s-forget it. Still the same price, or perhaps, more! Will buy Vittoria.

they changed the flavour of blend 43 now i cant drink it how bad it is Show details

Robert Timms freeze dried coffee available – For those looking for Robert Timms freeze dried coffee- I found you can buy the sachets from Hotel suppliers ; I ordered 500 sachets on line for $89… Read more

from Hotel products direct in sydney ; delivery charge 20 bucks or so- ends up beng 20 c per sachet...best decaf instant I've tasted

When I found out about the court case I decided to change to vittoria coffee. Also the price is now $37.50 for 400g which is insanity Show details

Good smooth coffee – The only coffee blend that won't cause acidity and irritation. Doesn't cause irritation due to its smooth, well-balanced flavor profile and lower acidity compared to other coffee varieties. Show details

Victoria Brazil Rex , instant coffee very little taste , you don't even smell the coffee. Show details

this was my favourite – this was my favourite for years, but they discontinued it and replaced it with the africa blend. i contacted the company and they said it wasn't popular, so they discontinued the range  Show details

For the past year and a half to two years, I’ve noticed a growing inconsistency in the taste of Nescafé Gold. I’ve been a loyal drinker for many… Read more

years, so I know exactly how it should taste — but lately, some jars are perfectly fine while others have a noticeably unpleasant, “off” flavour that makes the coffee not drinkable.

To rule out other causes, I’ve swapped milk, tried cream, changed water sources, and even adjusted how I prepare it. No matter what I change, the issue still appears intermittently, and the only consistent variable is the coffee itself. This leads me to believe that certain batches may be affected, whether through production changes, storage conditions, or quality variation.

As someone who has relied on Nescafé Gold for years, this inconsistency has been disappointing. When it’s good, it’s great — but when it’s not, it’s genuinely not drinkable. And at this point, the inconsistency is costing me not only money but real frustration — especially when I’m longing for a good cup of coffee and end up with yet another “off” batch. If this continues, I’ll have no choice but to find a new brand, because reliability matters just as much as flavour.

Delicious – Almost my favourite. Lovely flavour. Unfortunately it’s not stocked in all supermarkets now, and is only available in the small jars, which makes it a bit expensive. I only buy it on special. Show details

It simply has no coffee taste and smell. I had to throw away.

Awful coffee ....sorry Coles – Sorry to say this is a total waste of money.....and disagreed with my stomach ...sorry Coles this is not good coffee .....would enjoy to try something better in the future Show details

I have been drinking this for years, now it tastes like you have swapped coffee to a nasty cheap style of coffee bean, if you use real coffee beans… Read more

at all. Now I have to find something else, probably good anyways as it has doubled in price. Very disappointed.
