Has anyone had the new Starbucks Via instant coffee? I'm not a huge fan of Starbucks coffee, but this is the best instant coffee I've ever tasted! It won't replace my French press, but its really nice if I want a cup and don't have time to brew it.

Love coffee, but not Starbucks at all...beans are burnt.

Actually, I just did try them both (medium & extra bold) this past weekend. Personally, I didn't like the extra bold one bit. The medium was just ok- would do in a real bind, but wouldn't be my first choice even for an instant coffee. The girl at Starbucks did tell me they are adding more flavors soon. Sure hope its Mocha!!

nothing will ever replace my Keurig!

I have to agree with this. I've never cared much for their coffee. It's so overly bitter that you can't taste any coffee...then your palate is ruined for half the day. I still prefer my drip coffee maker at home with freshed ground whole-bean coffee. -
Picked up a couple of the samplers for it today. They were handing them out downtown so I thought why not.

Thats pretty unappetizing... -
Have you tried the peppermint white chocolate mocha that they have out for the holidays? It's even better IMOgmill880:No buuuut ...Starbucks White Chocolate Mocha ...thats what I'm talking about ... -
+1. They may not be able to make good espresso, but their froofroo drinks are next to none.BStayer:Luko:Love coffee, but not Starbucks at all...beans are burnt.
