Starbucks - VIA Ready Brew Instant Coffee Reviews

Just dropped some speed, I mean Starbucks VIA, into my coffee mug and mixed it up in an instant. I tried the Italian Roast blend. It's dark and bold as it should be. Suprisingly tasty and flavorful but of course my expectations were pretty low. I can be a coffee snob. Cafe con leche's in Spain and cappuccino in Italy can drive a person to become a coffee bean connoisseur. See how snotty I sound?! Instant coffee usually doesn't float my boat but VIA is not so bad! It's actually pretty far above average compared to other instant coffee. Also, I should be honest... I sort of hate Starbucks. I am more...

I suppose instant coffee is a necessary evil, even though I have not had any in years, due to the fact that you can get a decent cup of coffee just about anywhere these days (even at Mickey D's!).

But when Starbucks came out with Via, I was really interested in trying it because of all the hype and how confident the company is that it tastes as good as their brewed coffee. One assumes that they introduced it because of the recession -- fewer and fewer people want to spend $3 or $4 on a cup of Joe, so to hold on to their market share they needed to put out a good low-cost alternative (you can buy...

Starbucks instant coffee is the best instant coffee that you can buy. I love coffee and mostly brew mine but if you need a quick cup of coffee try Starbucks instant. It tastes great,smells good and is quick and easy to make. Starbucks helps me make a fresh quick cup of coffee. I have tried the other instant coffee but I always find my way back to the best,Starbucks. Try the taste test. Buy Starbucks instant and other instant coffees. You will see the difference the very first time you taste

Starbucks Via Brew Instant Coffee

when I heard starbucks was holding a "taste challenge" I figured it would be to showcase their new line of coffee. not realizing that it was for their line of instant coffee and getting a free cup of coffee just for particpating, which my dad really liked. the challenge was simple: drink both samples then guess which one is the via, reguardless the particpants get a coupon for a dollar off the via packets and a coupon for a tall coffee. after tasting both samples I made my guess, between Y and X I guessed Y and my dad guess X. Of course he guessed correctly, afterwards...

Often at relatives houses and especially work, I have been given pretty awful tasting coffee. A trick I have learned in bring a packet of Starbucks VIA instant coffee and add some to the "not so great" cup of coffee you are served. Usually half a pack does the trick and can go virtually undetected.   I am not a very big advocate for instant coffee but Starbucks has come through on this one and you can now drink other peoples coffee without insulting them or missing out on the caffine you need!  

I have also made the instant coffee on it's own and although it still is not quite the fresh...

I was able to taste test the VIA Ready Brew Instant Coffee.  I was reluctant to try it, knowing that I had never tasted an instant coffee that I liked.  I was very pleasantly surprised by the taste.  It tasted as if it had been freshly brewed.  I was also happy with the coupon for a free coffee that I was given just for trying the product.

Starbucks Instant Coffee is the best instant coffee I have ever had.  I received a sample pack in the mail.  I was totally amazed by the fact that Starbucks instant coffee tasted just like fresh brewed Starbucks coffee.  I am looking for this in my local Starbucks and buying it.  It is worth paying for.

Wow - I took the challenge today and promptly bought the biggest box they have.  Now I can have my Starbucks whenever I want it.  While I can taste a little difference, it's not enough to make a difference and I love the fact that all I need is a cup and hot water.  Try it - you'll love it.

Starbucks VIA --- the medium Columbian, is awful.  I drink my coffee black, so there was nothing to help me hide the awful flavor.  This stuff is almost $10, so I really feel cheated.  Folgers instant coffee bags taste far better and is much less.
