Strong and smooth.

I've used Mount Hagen's regular and widely available freeze-dried coffee (from Papua New Guinea beans) occasionally for years. It's not the only brand I keep on hand, but it's the "high end" brand.This "espresso" variation from the same maker really delivers the goods. Make it strong, and you have an intense dark-roast coffee with some nuances. Not the same as a well-made real espresso from quality beans; but better than any other "instant" product I've tried.See my review of Butter Nut instant "espresso" powder for comparison of some competing products, and other information.I n particular, like most freeze-dried coffees, this Mt. Hagen is granular; for use in baking, the finely powdered instants are more suitable as I detailed in the Butter Nut review.

This shouldn't be good but it is. I get fancy beans shipped across the country every 10 days or so but sometimes I run out early and the last thing I want to do is go to Starbucks. 🥴After trying their instant coffee and realizing it's actually good I gave this a shot. I just wish they did more homework and provided better ratios for making it at home. Obviously taste is subjective but give us what you think is best and I'll adjust it from there. If anyone's buying something like this, they should already have a coffee scale so I find using grams much better than teaspoons and ounces. Also calling for hot water is pretty vague.After going through a jar and playing with the ratios myself I found that I like a 46:1 ratio. So that's about 55g of 175° water to 1.2g of coffee.

Carefully packaged and delivered quickly. Delicious addition to my daily coffee.

I like my coffee very strong. I use a drip coffeemaker and add a tsp of this to my iced coffee. I love that it's organic

I love this coffee!!!

Great flavor

Their coffee and decaf coffee are great!! Not a fan of the taste of the espresso. I am used to Nespresso though so, hard to beat.
