How about instant delight?

 

Carte Noire

A
few years back as a creative director on the Nestle account, I was introduced to the wonders of instant coffee. You see, before that, I was a coffee nazi, and would settle for nothing less than the most discerning blends of well roasted beans.

 

But when you start getting cases of the stuff, you eventually switch over. Then the cases ran out and my snobbish coffee ways returned.

 

I just recently discovered a new instant coffee product, not from Nestle this time, but Carte Noire.

Made with much more obvious care for flavour and aroma, this product is actually something I will keep stocked in my pantry for those days I'm too lazy to heat up the espresso machine.

 

It's also rich enough to mix in Irish Coffee's or other beverages where coffee is called for but you don't have a pot on.
