    “Coffee Snob Review” best all around coffee ever!

    i have been a “coffee snob” since college - MANY YEARS AGO! That said, I have used Starbucks, and many drive up coffee spots. They all irritated my IBS! I was tired of waiting before heading out the door because of the “natural” side effects of most coffee’s. A friend (& a Dr.) recommended this brand while on vacation.

    Morning Wake-up Lifesaver

    We just returned from a 7-day vacation where the hotel room did not provide a coffee maker. I purchased a small water -heating kettle and decided to purchase the Mount Hagen 25 count instant coffee packets, organic medium roast, to be able to have my non-negotiable coffee in the morning. What a success!

    Good for instant coffee, but makes a weak cup

    Tastes pretty good and dissolves very easily, but I find that one packet just isn't enough in a normal sized mug of coffee. I don't consider myself someone who has to have an extremely strong cup of coffee, but one packet made a weak and watery cup. Two packets was borderline too much — the coffee tasted a bit sour.
