Q: Any good instant coffee out there?
Can't be bothered for the other (expensive, time-consuming) coffee options. Recommendations?
When I travel, I use instant coffee. I found that Maxwell dark roast satisfies my taste enough for a few days. Give it a try, you may like it.
I buy Nescafe Gold. Costs twice as much as the cheap stuff by Nescafe but worth it I believe (I pay about 70 for a small jar).
You can buy it at big western style grocery stores usually (I go to Vanguard).
Nescafe and Maxwell for the coffee sachets looking at 12-15rmb for a box of 10 i think
I wouldn't touch Maxwell house unless you paid me a lot....
Nescafe Gold is my standard (like TheDude).
If I feel like more expensive stuff, I might get a Moccona.
Grandos gold seems to be the same as the Nescafe Gold -b ut with a sligtly different packaging (I think it's slightly cheaper, too).
All available off Taobao, and should only take a couple of days for delivery
the maxwell house satchet are great, do not put too much water and add a little milk or flavored milk to give it texture
did you guys noticed that the instant coffee became more and more expensive in supermarket. the price almost rise half time.

Maxwell House is awful no matter which country you are in.
