Nescafe Taster's Choice Vanilla Instant Coffee, 0.07oz.Count Single Serve Sticks, 20 Count, (Count of 8)

I'm genuinely embarrassed to admit just how much I love this stuff. For one, instant coffee has never gotten a good rap, and then FLAVORED instant coffee, of all things? Drinking it should be criminalized, if you ask even casual connoisseurs. But wait, this is shockingly delicious! Smooth, easy to drink, subtly sweet (added sugar accounts for just 5 calories per serving) and lightly infused with a hint of vanilla. There's no listing for the amount of caffeine, but I'm fairly sensitive to the stuff these days and can tell it's relatively low- Certainly less than a traditional cup of drip coffee. What kills me is the fact that each serving is meted out in scant little individual sticks. They're great for people on the go, but for a work-from-home, couch potato like me, I'd rather reduce waste on all that package and just buy the coffee in bulk.

I've been buying this coffee (vanilla flavor) for years. Just received a new batch and am not sure what Nescafe was thinking when they changed the flavor of this coffee. It used to be crystals with a full rich vanilla flavor. Now the coffee is a powder with no vanilla flavor and an extremely bitter, burnt coffee taste. Nescafe used to make one of the best vanilla coffees on the market, this new one tastes like a very cheap imitation! They don't mention in the description that they changed the formula. The picture shows a "new look", what you can't see is next to the words "new look" it says "delicious new blend". Is that what you call it Nescafe, a "delicious new blend"? Who decided it was a "delicious new blend", someone who has never drank coffee before? Well Nescafe, you really cheapened yourself on this one. I requested a refund and will not be ordering this coffee anymore until you go back to the original flavor. Buyers - The positive reviews MUST be from the previous flavor of this coffee, trust me, you will be disappointed! I would give this no stars if I could! To everyone who thinks this new flavor is horrible you can call this number 1-800-505-2876 to let them know what you think of the change, apparently they are counting votes. Tell them we want our original flavors back!

I've loved these single-serving coffee packets for years, and just had my first cup from a newly ordered batch. HORRIBLE! There isn't even a hint of the lovely vanilla flavor, and the once-gentle coffee is now harsh and bitter. Nescafe says this is a "delicious new blend". Well, it's certainly new, but it's certainly NOT delicious. It's not eligible for return, and I am so sorry I wasted my money.

Like others have mentioned, one stick is usually not enough to make this instant coffee taste like a cup of vanilla coffee. If you use only one stick, it will taste like diluted vanilla water with almost no hint that you are drinking coffee. You'll need to use 2 sticks, but you are now paying in the range of what you would for a K-cup. So if you don't have or want a k-cup brewer but want a decent flavored instant coffee, this one is good but you'll need to use 2 sticks to enjoy it.It disappoints that tasters choice purposely makes you pay for all the extra package to get this coffee. A company has a right to make a profit off of the merchandise it sells, but if you are purposely being wasteful in attempting to acquire those profits, that's bad.

Really wish it was still available in the canister, I've been drinking this 20 years or so.I just open the packets from four boxes (80 packets, I hold 3 packets and cut them at one time), which just about exactly fills up an old canister.The price is higher than before, at $32 for this item each packet costs 20 cents.This 8 x 20 pack has about as much coffee as two of the old large container, which used to cost about $8 each.(Each packet is .07 ounces, 20 in a box makes 1.4 ounces per box, Amazon sells 8 boxes together, which is 11.2 ounces. The old canisters were 6 ounces, so this 8x20 pack from Amazon is about the size of two of the old canisters.)

I have fibromyalgia and almost all coffee (even the delicious brewing smell) makes me have an instant migraine. I received a sample of this and lo-and-behold! it doesn't trigger migraines. Better yet, it doesn't have artificial sweeteners in it and I don't need to add any sugar. The vanilla is perfect. I like the hazelnut, too. I highly recommend this! I usually use two packs at a time... One pack is five calories! Super! I order it by the case! Thank you, Taster's Choice, for giving me my beloved coffee back!

PROS: This coffee is wonderful tasting the best instant coffee I have ever found. I like to take these to work as they are so portable.I can't find these ones anywhere in stores, so I was glad to find them here!CONS: Unfortunately nescafe didn't seal some of the singles so 3 and a half packs of the 8 were no use to me as the coffee was all in the boxes but thankfully amazon is sending a replacement, wonderful customer service!!! thank you!

I can never find this in stores so I am always buying this on Amazon. I buy it about once every 2 months so the price is just perfect for me. Also I love the fact that it is in single sever sticks so I can get the perfect amount every-time and I can carry them everywhere with me.Amazon are great at delivering these, if they had subscription on this I would subscribe! 8 boxes of 20 = 160 sticks = just over 18c a stick = BARGAIN!
