Sudden Coffee - Single Origin Instant Coffee (8 Count) - 100% Arabica Beans - Direct Trade - Small-Batched for Premium Quality - No Additives - Freeze Dried - Specialty Roasters - Pour Over Taste

Tried most of the other single serve coffees, started with via from Starbucks back a bit, understand if there is a batch issue, but this stuff is messed up, stronger than a Richard Pryor free-base, I used to have quad shots at Starbucks, and 12-15 servings of coffee daily, but this stuff is stronger than rocket fuel, not in a good way, something has to be wrong, nothing this strong or potent can be out there in the market place, it messed me up for 6 days until I realized has to be this stuff, it’s costly but still just tossed all that I had remaining, don’t want to gift this to inflict harm on anyone else,

Ordered the light roast Peru, and was surprised how great it tasted! Definitely the best instant coffee I have ever had. It honestly would be difficult to tell if it was instant coffee or fresh brewed. The only minor difference there was a slight flat-like flavor you get from older roasted coffee, but not bad at all. Taste wise...the light roast had a rounded acidity, soft pear and milk chocolate notes. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a cup of good specialty coffee while traveling! You won’t be disappointed.

Bought this for camping thinking it might be better than the Starbucks Instant Coffee. Way better than expected! Not only beats Starbucks Instant but honestly this is better than the pour over coffee you'd get at places like Stumptown, Inteligencia, Philz. Will be buying more for sure to use at home.

I ordered the Medium Roast a while ago and forgot to write my review, but I recently found my last vial. Man, am i happy about that!All i can say is that i wish all instant coffee was as smooth and tasty as this. I like to evaluate all kinds of coffee drinks without adding anything to the drink, i have been pleasantly surprised by how tasty I find Sudden Coffee to be--especially since this isn't a pour over made with CC/Stumptown/insert artisan brand coffee . Most instant coffee I have had in the past requires a little bit of milk, creamer, or *gasp* sweetener (i'm looking at you starbucks). This is the first time that i feel comfortable comparing instant coffee to pour over, and i couldn't be happier with this purchase.I loved opening the SC package to find a whole bunch of vials--the science geek in me became super excited. For instant coffee, this is hands down the tastiest and smoothest coffee brand i have ever tried.I will be purchasing some of the light roast to give it a shot once it is in stock.Great job Sudden Coffee team--you nailed it!

Starting out with context: I'm not a coffee snob per se, but I'm definitely on the snob side of the coffee spectrum (Chemex, espresso maker, expensive beans, burr grinder, etc.).This stuff is fantastic. Most importantly, the flavors and the quality of the coffee is on par with what comes out of my Chemex. It's pretty shocking in that regard. Then the ease: it's incredibly easy. Like, stupid easy. Initially, I was pretty reluctant to give it a try, cause, you know, instant coffee is trash. But after hearing a friend sing its praises for weeks, I decided to give it a shot. Now it's not only my backup for mornings when I don't have the time to brew my own, but it's begun to make it into my weekly morning brew rotation on its own accord. If you're on the fence, give it a shot. You won't regret it.

I heard about this coffee from a friend. I'm typically a fan of instant coffee because of how quick and simple it is to make - I don't take the time to brew the good stuff. Now I don't have to compromise. This stuff tastes high quality and has robust flavor, and takes no time at all. I'm sold.

I usually use Starbucks via packets when i need a good cup of instant coffee. I like Sudden much better. Makes so much sense - how have I not seen premium instant coffee options before? Dissolves nicely. The tubes that the coffee comes in are nice but not as space efficient as the vias. Not really a concern for me.

Typically when I drink instant coffee I do it purely for the caffeine. Yet, with this coffee I taste the complexity of the chocolate chip cookie aroma paired with very fruity tasting notes! I ordered the medium roast and was a little bit off put by how dark it was (I assumed it was a dark roast), but I was very impressed because even though it was high in acidity it was much lower in bitterness than expected. Lastly, I noticed that I had no granules at the bottom of my cup which is a common issue in instant coffee.
