JacobsKRONUNG Instant Coffee, 200g jar

Don’t get me wrong, I love my drip coffee, however this specific brand and instant coffee is my go to nowadays. Jacobs is by far superior to others and since I have to omit sugar and high acidity this is a great choice - it gives me that morning cup satisfaction, where drip coffee currently doesn’t. Jacobs has drip also, it is mild but very tasty.

Taste better than most brewed coffees without the bitter or acidy aftertaste.

The pictures can be deceiving. Make sure you are ordering the correct size. These come in different sizes. This is my favorite coffee because I simply don't have time to brew in the morning. I have been drinking this coffee every morning, for many years. Still smells and tastes good.

Coffee reviews tend to be suspect when, for example, people give Maxwell House or Folgers good reviews. How can you trust those reviews but by concluding that a majority of coffee drinkers wouldn't know a good cup of coffee if it were splashed in their face (at room temperature, of course!). While I'm no coffee snob (at least I don't think I am) I know life is too short to drink Maxwell House or Folgers. Jacobs Kronung Instant is a good cup of coffee and well worth giving a try if you've been wasting your life on lesser coffees, or if you're just curious to try something new based on the review of a guy you don't know. If I tell you'll love it or I'll give you're money back you know that the anonymity of these reviews means that you'd never actually get me to reach into my own pocket to refund you but, nevertheless, you won't want a refund because you'll enjoy this instant coffee more than what you've been drinking. Buy it. Enjoy it. Thank me later.

I bought this coffee as a less expensive alternative to Douwe-Egbert Pure Indulgence coffee which is my favorite, but my subscribe and save shipment was delayed, and a 1 time purchase was quite a bit more expensive. After drinking this coffee for a few weeks, here are my thoughts.1. The Kronung has real kick to it. It is the strongest of the Jacob’s offerings in my area. With the strength comes a little extra bitterness which I don’t mind because I drink it over ice with oat milk and stevia.2. I taste strong notes of chocolate and molasses in this coffee. If you like mocha flavored things, you might really like Kronung.3. Dissolves better in hot water than cold. When I went to make an iced coffee the first time with this brand, it didn’t dissolve in the cold water I used, which wasn’t the case for me with Douwe-Egbert. I have since changed to dissolving it in a bit of hot water, and then adding cold oat milk and ice.Overall, I think that the Krunung is good for someone who likes strong coffee with bitter chocolate notes. For me it is a good backup coffee, but not my go to coffee in the morning.

Worth the money, fresh, smooth, good quality and smells good

My brother-in-law turned me on to this brand and flavor of instant coffee. Apparently Kronung is the "Goldilocks" roast-flavor of the three Jacobs instant coffees that I'm aware of. Cronat Gold is supposed to be milder and smoother in roast flavor, then Kronung is a well-rounded flavorful roast, and then there's Velvet for a bolder, richer roast flavor. I gotta tell you, this one's a keeper. It tastes better than most single-serve, k-cup style coffees that I've had. I've ended up relegating my Keurig to a "hot water" maker for this Jacobs Kronung instant coffee. When you first put it into the hot water, there's this creamy froth at the top of the mug that tells you right away this ain't your run-of-the-mill instant coffee. It's so yummy that I've gotten addicted to making coffee at home all over again! And from an INSTANT COFFEE, no less. Bet it'll beat the pants off of any of your regular brew coffees. Who knew???

Tastes great for instant!
