    Taylor's of Harrogate is not organic, but they just use pure water to decaffeinate, and it tastes great.

    Another vote for Lidl, I was on Sainburys Gold decaff, but the Lidl stuff has a much better taste.

    Not going to be the cheapest, but try and go for organic, as regular decaf coffees, especially the cheaper ones are often decaffeinated using chemical processes. I'm allergic to caffeine and always go for organic decafs, as they use the CO2 process.

    Can you get this as instant?

    I rarely buy decaff anything as I go for the evil stuff..but I can recommend you avoid Carte Noire Decaffeinated (CN is one of the better instants, for me, anyway). It is horrible and bears no resemblence in taste to the "sinful" one. Took me ages to finish it.

    One decaff I can recommend is the Asda own brand Earl Grey..tastes just as nice as the bad version :p (I know you didn't ask about tea but it might help someone).

    chelms38 Same what i have been drinking for years as well BUT they have now changed the bottle and the coffee is awful . Even the £1 shop coffee tastes better.So i think i buy Kenco decaff now.

    Funny, I've been drinking Tesco's Gold Decaf for years. I'd bought some recently for my mum but this newer 100g bottle tastes awful. I thought it was my imagination until I read your post. I think I'll be trying Lidl when my stock runs out! Gutted!

    BTW - Have you seen the price of 200g Kenco Decaf in Tesco - 7 QUID!!! That's why I secretly swapped some Tesco's into my mum's coffee canister. I didn't think she'd notice (and she hasn't!), but I have!!
