Advantages: Taste and Aroma

Disadvantages: Appearance

Although I prefer tea to coffee, one of the most pleasant coffee's I've drunk is Nescafe's "Cap Columbie", described on the jar as "a smooth and aromatic coffee mad from pure medium roasted Columbian Arabicas". The coffee is indeed smooth and I've drunk the stuff cup after cup after cup, most enjoyable as I'm not normally one for coffee. It also does have that pleasant coffee aroma as well (except for the aroma the drinker gives off after a few cups but we'll leave that one where it is).

You know that saying that some people can't make a decent cup of coffee for whatever reason? Well, where this coffee lets itself down is that it doesn't disolve properly and has quite a lot of those dark floaties on the top which spoils it a little bit. They also say that with food "the first bite is with the eye". The first sip is with the eye in this case and it does let it down. Petty? Perhaps. But it does taste great - use cream of full fat milk and brown sugar for an even better drink.
