As the leader of Italian specialty coffee, Lavazza has coffee beans and coffee powder sold in different origins and roasting levels, but it seems to be a little careless about the instant coffee category, with few products to choose from, and only two instant black coffee on sale, which also makes its instant coffee far less well-known than ground coffee or coffee beans, but fortunately, the coffee taste is authentic and strong, and it maintains a consistently high standard. The raw materials are made of Arabica coffee beans with good flavor, the formula is exquisite, and 90% soluble coffee powder is used with 10% ground coffee powder to maintain the taste of coffee while improving the aroma of coffee.

Nakahara G7 Vietnam

Recommended series: 3-in-1 instant coffee Vietnam is rich in Robusta coffee beans, with a huge output, which directly affects the supply and demand of global coffee, but the quality of Robusta is not as good as Arabica, the taste is bitter and dull, in order to ease the taste of coffee beans, a large amount of milk saccharin is usually added during processing, so as a representative of Vietnamese coffee, Central Plains G7 is generally sweet and greasy. Zhongyuan G7's three-in-one coffee is more popular in Asia, and the price is very low, only 40 yuan for 800 grams, but in Italy, which has a long coffee culture, it was once jokingly called coffee-flavored sweet water, and the natural flavor of coffee is naturally impossible to talk about. Zhongyuan G7 also offers pure black coffee, but the flavor of the coffee beans is almost invisible, and the taste is bland and slightly bitter, with a woody flavor and lackluster taste. It costs only 33 yuan to buy 3 boxes of 90g black coffee in combination, which is very cheap, which is cheaper than the black coffee that focuses on toffee coffee such as Jiujiechang and Yichang Old Street, which can be used to bake coffee-themed cakes, and can also add milk or whipped cream to block the bitterness of black coffee. ...

Old Townyard Malaysia

Recommended series: 3-in-1 Original White Coffee, Hazelnut White Coffee Old street white coffee can be found everywhere in Malaysia, whether it is a large shopping mall or a small convenience store. Founded in 1999, Old Town Market has captured the taste buds of countless Chinese consumers in just a few years, and has become the best souvenir for Malaysian tourism. The fist industry of the old street is white coffee, a typical toffee coffee three-in-one coffee, which gives people the first impression of sweetness. After a moment of simple brewing, the aroma fills the room, and it does not become sour like black coffee when left to cool. However, the sweet and attractive aroma of white coffee comes from artificial flavors, not the aroma of the coffee beans themselves, which is also what many coffee controllers disdain. If you are a lover of mellow Americano, you can basically take a detour when you see the white coffee in the old town. In order to enrich the product line, the old street has launched a new black series, namely Fu Alcohol freeze-dried black coffee, using 100% Arabica coffee beans to release the original flavor of coffee beans, low astringency and high alcohol. Packed in glass jars, moisture-proof and dry, the official price is about 79 yuan for 100g. Since there was no black coffee in the old town...

Yichang Old Street, like the old street, did not give up the black coffee category and launched Arabica instant black coffee, but because this is not a characteristic of Malaysian coffee, it has been neglected, and its sales reputation is far inferior to that of three-in-one coffee. The price of a bottle of 100g is about 110 yuan, and similar products are more expensive than the old streets, and the cost performance is average. ...
