Nescafe Cap Colombie

~ ~ The mad cabbie is a self-confessed caffeine addict! Those of you who’ve been around dooyoo for a while will doubtless recall his many opinions in the past in his relentless quest for the perfect “brew”. That is, until he discovered Kenco Purely Colombian, and discovered that cocaine is not the only thing to come out of South America that has a high addiction factor. (heh, heh) ~ ~ The very first thing I do (well, almost) when I get out of bed in the morning is get the kettle on for my first strong brew of the day, to get the old eyes open and the juices flowing. A large mug, two and a half spoons of coffee, three and a half spoons of ...  Read the complete review

I wouldn't describe myself as a connoisseur of coffee but I do like a good instant. In the past, I have tried coffees ranging from Douwe Egberts and Kenco through to Percol and Nescafé. However, it is the Nescafé brand to which I have remained most loyal. Having tried Nescafé Alta Rica and Nescafé Kenjara, both premium freeze dried soluble coffees, I thought I may as well try Nescafé Cap Colombie, which is the other main variety in the Nescafé premium range. I paid £2.98 for a 100g jar at my local Morrisons store, which isn't bad because it had previous been priced at well over £3. However, this is still a lot more expensive than some of the other Nescafé ...  Read the complete review

Just over eight months ago I wouldn't touch coffee with a barge poll but then at a Christmas dinner I decided to try some, it just so happened that our table ran out of milk before it got to me, so rather than getting some more I decided to omit milk and replace it with sugar. Anyhow needless to say I liked but was not overly in love with the taste. A couple of months later I thought it was about time I got some coffee to drink at home after having tried the undrinkable Nescafe Original which was in the house, shortly after I started taking my own coffee to the office as my love for the stuff grew so did the vending machine bill. Anyhow when I went to select ...  Read the complete review

Nescafe product a large range of coffee and hot drinks but this is one of my favourite. I have this coffee once a day in a lovely large mug and it's really great and warming, even on a hot summer's day. It has a lovely taste and also helps to wake you up and even quenches your thirst. The coffee comes in a glass container with a dark brown lid. There is a two tone label round most the container, which is red and black. At the top, it says 'Nescafe Collection' and below this is the name - 'Cap Colombie'. Below is a picture, which sets the scene for the Arabica coffee beans. This coffee is instant, so you simply add hot water to some in a mug and you ...  Read the complete review

I hate 'real' coffee, but consider myself a connoisseur of instant. I can't get enough of the stuff (I'm a 12 mugs a day woman), and must have tried every brand going. For me, Nescafe Cap Colombie is the ultimate instant for those who like their coffee smooth and mild. Cap Colombie is made from mild Arabica beans from Colombia (as its name suggests). It is medium roasted and then freeze dried to seal in the flavour. It comes in a terrific looking matt black jar that is velvety to the touch. Not that I spend much of my time fondling coffee jars you understand, but the look and feel of this one is worth a mention. I like my ...  Read the complete review
