| I was hoping Korea would get this and was asking them in Itaewon several times, but I found it just being introduced with a 2 for 1 sale in Manila last January and it's been in the US market since 2009. It's really good real instant coffee compared to Nescafe and Maxim gold. |

| In a packaged processed sort of way it almost tastes better than what you get at the coffee shops. |

Is it comparable to MAXIM Arabica Gold?
That's not bad for a premix instant.
How much do they cost? |

No, for the price you pay for the Starbuck's instant (3 short size servings for $3 US) I wouldnt consider buying it if it was only as good as MAXIM Arabica Gold. It's quite a bit better. The taste is almost as good as the fresh stuff they serve except it tastes a little bit more processed, but there is no harsh or foul taste to it at all. |

Those instants are pretty good. It's microcrystalline so you can add it to cold water or cold milk.
I think I like it with low fat milk, no water over ice.
However the best coffee I've had is freshly ground Starbucks Cafe Estima through my aeropress. |
