Kenco Decaffeinated

Kenco are one of the best instant coffees I think you can get. They produce Kenco smooth, rich and decaffeinated coffees. They also produce a variety of special coffees such as Colombian, Costa Rican and Rappor. Kenco decaffeinated coffee is basically made with the same Kenco coffee beans as the other varieties but with the caffeine removed. Caffeine is the so called bad bit in coffee which experts say too much is not good for you. It is a central nervous system stimulant which perks and wakes the body up, making you feel more alert, hence the cup of coffee first thing to give you a kick start.

I used to be a big coffee drinker, at least until a few years ago when I went a bit 'perculiar'! (No rude comments, please!) After having all sorts of medical tests, (since it was thought that I may possibly have a brain tumour), my unexplained symptoms turned out to be nothing more sinister than an allergy to coffee. I stopped drinking it, and my symptoms disappeared.Sorted. Nowadays, I can get away with the occasional cup without too many problems, but I nearly always stick to tea. However, I missed my regular cups of coffee - there were times, such as after dinner, when only coffee would do.Decaffeinated coffee is allegedly better for health,since the ...  Read the complete review

I have been a total coffee junkie since being about 14 years old, drinking around six cups of strong coffee before 10am most mornings, the kettle is always on the boil in my house. Like many middle aged women with two grown children I started having problems in my ahem "plumbing department" *blush* I got so bad that I had to plan each trip out to where I could get to the loo at any given time. It became very depressing and frustrating, I couldn't go to cheaper supermarkets such as Aldi or Lidl as they have no loos! Other family members found it alternatively hilarious or annoying as in "what you need to go again????" Two years ...  Read the complete review

I am not a great coffee drinker, I used to be, and then for some reason best known to my taste buds- I seem to always prefer tea now- albeit many different teas. But I have to have coffee in for the visitors and I will always opt for the best known brand that's on offer. I have noticed that I get more compliments about my coffee using Kenco decaffeinated than any other brand and with the exception of one friend who reminded me I should be buying fairtrade, ( can't argue with him). Normally they just say thanks for the coffee and I hear no more about it- but now they seem to make a point of saying how much they have enjoyed their cuppa. I must admit ...  Read the complete review

Unlike their regular variety which comes in a red-topped container, 'Kenco Decaffeinated' is packaged in a green-lidded jar. The blurb on the label tells us that the same beans are used in this variety as in their other 'Roast' and 'Ground' coffees. The label also points out that during the decaffeination process, only natural resources and no artificiacial additives are used. An impressive start then. But how does it taste? I generally find 'de-caff's' to have a weaker taste than regular coffee, and this variety is no exception. The taste is quite smooth and there is only a hint of bitterness - but you have to ...  Read the complete review
