Great quick alternative to the brewed version. Smooth, rich taste. Not your mother's instant coffee! I will purchase again.

I started using these Via coffee packets at work after getting frustrated with the office coffee pot. It was either too strong or not made by the person to take the last cup.
I got together with other frustrated co-workers and purchased a coffee maker for hot water only so now we have an alternative to make hot Tazo tea or Via coffee.
I am purchasing the 50 count pack so that I have plenty on hand at work. May even consider sharing with others.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I'm not a coffee drinker but I was given this coffee as a gift and this morning I thought, what the heck give it a try. I'm totally amazed at the smooth blend and robust flavor. When hiking I'll be packing this with me for my early morning mountain top brew. PS I added a square of chocolate to mine.

I didn't know you offered instant coffee until I was searching for a care package to send to my sister at the Hurricane Sandy-ravaged Jersey Shore. She was surprised that you offer an instant option and pleased at the quality. You "instantly" made her difficult mornings much better! Thank you.

Well, this is the only coffee I have tried out of the Coffee Tour so far, but it's another favorite of mine. If you like House Blend VIA, I think you'll really like this one too.

This is instant coffe for the 21st Century, I don't believe I could tell the difference between this and brewed coffee. I was only sorry I couldn't get it in the 50 count package.

Okay, I am sold! Every cup is perfect, and making instant iced coffee is about as close to instant gratification as you can get. A great pick me up on a hot afternoon, but these little packets make the perfect hot cup of coffee too, without making a whole pot!
Yes, I recommend this product.

With the Columbian Via coffee I make my own lattes at home. I nuke a tall cup of milk and the Columbia Via dissolves in it beautifully. The flavor is terriffic and is great for days when I don't want to get dressed and drive to Starbucks. Also, I can pick it up at the grocery store or Target.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is the best instant coffee I have ever had! Full bodied, yet not bitter. Great with milk and creamer. I love Starbucks, but do not have one near my home, otherwise I would go to get a fresh brewed cup. but this is the next best thing!

Starbucks VIA® Ready Brew Colombia is great tasting coffee made one cup at a time. It's even better when purchased in bulk at a great price. Perfect if you're a one cup of coffee person at a time. I take it on vacation to insure that I'll have Via wherever I travel.

I have been a coffee-aholic for years and after living in Europe where I learned how to make true espresso on the stovetop, I can't believe I actually drink instant coffee everyday, but I do. The Columbia flavor is the best of all the VIA flavors to me; it has the right balance and isn't overpowering. I recently tried the new blonde flavor that they launched and immediately went back to Columbia. I sometimes can't find this in the stores so was absolutely pumped when I found out I could get it delivered to my door every 2 weeks with a subscription.
Yes, I recommend this product.
