Best instant coffee?

If you do happen to like Lavazzo, keep an eye out for it in Sainsburys as, from time to time, they reduce it from £4.50 to £3. Not on right now though.0

Tesco do this too from time to time (in fact I'd always bought it there because I've only ever seen it discounted there not Sainsburys- it's good to know they both do!)
I'm just wondering if anyone has a good de-caf they can recommend? I used to really like the stuff in tins (Kenko Millicano or Nescafe's version-can't recall the name). But for some unknown reason, I can't stand it now. It was an all of a sudden thing, I was halfway into a tin at the time I went off them, the full caffeine versions I am still fine with and really like.
I'm just wondering if anyone has any recommendations other than the one's I've mentioned.0 -
Co-op Instant Columbian Coffee (£2.99) great taste. Similar to Waitrose Instant Columbian but this is slightly more expensive.Nice to save.0

Another vote for Millicano here. I've just tried Waitrose Columbian Fairtrade instant which seems to have a few coffee grounds in (making it feel 'real') though I still prefer the Millicano.
I've also dipped into Nescafe Lattes (vanilla and toffee hazelnut) for occasional treats though they're not as good as the real thing.somewhere between Heaven and Woolworth's0 -
Percol Italian blend.0

Nescafe Alta Rica is lovely.0

Kenco Millicano is always a nice treat when it's on offer - a little bit more posher without being too pricey
It comes in a nice tin, I give it that. Unfortunately I'm not a fan of the actual tastepandora205 wrote: »Another vote for Millicano here. I've just tried Waitrose Columbian Fairtrade instant which seems to have a few coffee grounds in (making it feel 'real') though I still prefer the Millicano.
DE Gold for me.
The flavoured instant coffees seem like a nice treat, but taste so disgustingly chemical I complained and had my money refunded.pandora205 wrote: »I've also dipped into Nescafe Lattes (vanilla and toffee hazelnut) for occasional treats though they're not as good as the real thing.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

I like Percol. The decaff is nice, although I don't really see the point in it myself!0
-
I always buy Co-Operative Fairtrade coffee. Cheap and best!0

We buy Nescafe Azera decaf when it's on offer (£2.99) but not when it's full price (£5.99)0
