If you're really into 3 in 1 stuff , let's try to find one brand with most coffee content and less sugar, shall we?

My emergency brand when I'm in a hurry is Ben Cafe (Big C) , they use Brazilian beans and I think it tastes ok but too sweet. When I read the content , they use 52% sugar and 13% coffee, so too much sugar and less coffee.

Anyone better ?

About 6 years ago Makro came out carrying a 3 in 1 coffee by the name of "Super Coffee".  I tried it (the "regular" in the red packet of 25, 50 or 100 sachets) and have been drinking it ever since.  It is the only coffee I have ever been able to drink consistently day after day. 

 

Give it a shot!!!

Yes 50% sugar is crazy. I've tried 3 other instant coffees and my latest favourite is Nescafe Gold blend.

Years ago instant coffee, aside from some black mud in hotels, was the only coffee you could drink in Thailand. The advent of getting real coffee here was one of the greatest social advances for the traveler or expat. Find it bemusing that there are those that actually enjoy instant, but to each their own.

I bought this coffee when I was in Vietnam and I thought it was very good but I used my last packet.      Anyone know where I can purchase this in  Thailand?

I drink Essenso micro ground coffee. You have the option of 3in1 or 2in1. Available in Makro, Lotus and Big C.

Using ground coffee doesn't guarantee a better coffee. I tried Benjamet and a random one from Big C, both not that great when using a cone filter so i switched back to instant Nescafe which is better.

Nescafe have a relatively new addition to their 3-in-1 range. Comes in a purple pack and contains either less sugar or an artificial sweetener.

Yes, it's my only option if I have to go instant. I buy 2 in 1 and then you can add a teaspoon of sugar if you like it a bit sweet.
But I own an espresso machine at home so I prefer to grind the beans myself.

I think one place I've seen that was in the market at Poipet crossing, but things have changed a lot up there now.

I like my coffee black.

I've looked everywhere for a 3-in-1 version - no luck so far.

Wouldn't that be a 2-in-1 version ?

Without sugar, it would be a 1-in-1 :)

 

Or more commonly known as, coffee !!

I don't think you have too much to worry about. Can't imaging you have many friends dropping by.

Oh, BTW, If I didn't drink WHISKY, I certainly wouldn't offer my friends the cheapest I could find. What an insult. Be better off not having any at all on hand, or at least something middle of the road to offer.

But hey, that's just me.

Oh i see you need your mates to think your HISO. Easy find an empty bottle of the good stuff and fill it with cheap junk. Same as coffee if the adk tell them its Nescaffe.

Plenty friends drop round by the way. But unlike yours they drop round to see us. Not our coffee or whiskey.
