Real Coffee For People With An Instant Lifestyle
Not All Instant Coffees Are Created Equal
We at EnjoyBetterCoffee.com have many great brands and roasts of coffee, all imported from Europe and made for the European market. In fact, several brands we offer are top sellers, either in their home country or on the world market.
This week, our focus is on top brands of instant coffee. You may know that instant coffee is a third of all the retail brewed coffee drunk around the world. In Western Europe, where high-quality coffee is enjoyed early and often, instant coffee has 25% of the consumer market. Coffee from the European market is darker, stronger and more intense, and you’ll be happy to know that this applies to European brands of instant coffee too. Here’s some of the best instants we offer.
It all starts with Nescafe. Literally the introduction of instant coffee to the mass market can be attributed to the creation of Nescafe by Nestle in the 1930’s. Already producing instant chocolate beverages, Nescafe’s move to instant coffee and instant tea transformed the consumer coffee market, and Nescafe sales took off. We offer several roasts and flavors, including Nescafe Instant Espresso, which consistently is on the top-ten lists of the best instant coffees. Strong, rich and velvety, the pure Arabica beans ensure the best flavor of this coffee.
Nescafe Gold Cappuccino, another top-reviewed instant coffee drink, has premium sugar and milk already added in. The cappuccino tastes rich, with a crema that is silky. We have boxes of 8 individual packets at such a low price when combined with the discount below, you can give them a try for practically nothing.
Nescafe also makes a 3 In 1 Classic instant coffee available as individual sticks. Europeans have already discovered the convenience of instant coffee with cream and sugar added. Nescafe 3 In 1 has a great taste, some sweetness, and earns a near-perfect score in reviews. Like other instants, this is also a good base for a coffee drink or iced coffee.
The discount we are offering gets you 15% off your order of all our instant coffees on our site, including the coffee drink substitutes mentioned below.*

Chicory Coffee Originated in France
Chicory is a flowering plant that has a tough stem, purple flowers and its leaves are often used fresh in salads. To make chicory coffee, the plants are roasted, ground and then brewed into a coffee. While many people think chicory is similar to coffee in taste, you might find it has a bit of a nutty taste. During the 1800’s, a coffee shortage was addressed by brewing and drinking chicory. Later, it became popular to mix chicory in coffee, no more so than in New Orleans, a city that prides itself on chicory coffee. We carry 2 brands of chicory drinks, and both are eligible for the discount above.
Leroux: We have 2 sizes of instant chicory in jars, and ground chicory, made to be brewed as you would brew coffee, both naturally caffeine-free. It’s delicious alone or mixed in coffee or hot chocolate.
Ricore: This instant drink made with coffee and chicory. When combined with coffee, the roasted chicory creates a unique and delicious taste.
Other Coffee Alternatives With No Caffeine
We have several instant drinks that combine barley, chicory, rye and malted grains to create a flavorful drink that is all natural.
We have Cafix in 2 blends, both are rich and smooth, with no acid or caffeine. Pero Instant is very mild, with low acidity, and can be enjoyed on its own, or mixed with other ingredients to create special drinks.
Jacobs and Douwe Egberts Instant Coffees
Douwe Egberts Pure Gold instant coffee wins many awards for its smooth, balanced flavor, creamy mouthfeel and strong aroma. It blends well for mochas and iced coffee, or just simple chocolate syrup. Douwe Egberts Aroma Rood instant will remind you of Aroma Rood ground: medium roasted, balanced, with a special sweetness. Douwe Egberts Pure Indulgence is a dark roast, slightly more intense, with a rich flavor and soft feel. Be sure to check out the other Douwe Egberts instant roasts.
Jacobs Kronung instant, another brand that is recognized as being at the top of the 
instant market, has the same flavor, and the same special aroma, as the ground version. Jacobs Cronat Gold is slightly milder, with a smooth flavor. Jacobs Crema instant is made from 100% Arabica beans, finely ground for ultimate mixability. Jacobs Americano instant is also entirely Arabica beans, and also ground fine. Try Jacobs instant Cappuccino, a creamy, aromatic and sweet drink, with a surprisingly solid crema.
Coffee In The News
Swiss Won’t Stockpile Coffee Anymore For This One Reason
After World War I, Switzerland enacted an emergency reserve system for food staples such as sugar, rice, edible oils, animal feed, and raw coffee. Law requires that retailers of these products store some percentage of stock in case of war, natural disaster or epidemics. A new plan, just released by the government, will allow coffee stockpiling to end by 2022. The plan stated that coffee “is not essential for life” since it has no calories, and does not support nutritional needs. There does seem to be some opposition to the plan (we won’t say a conflict is ‘brewing’), in particular from the organization that oversees the food stockpiles. A final decision is expected in November.

The Dutch Celebrate This Month
In a couple of weeks, the Dutch, along with other Christian worshippers, will celebrate Easter. Then a mere week later, the people will party in honor of the birthday of their King, Willem Alexander. Both celebrations are national, public holidays, and important in the Netherlands, and here’s why.
Easter is April 21, but in Holland, Easter is celebrated on both the Sunday and Easter Monday. As with most religious holidays, food and family are the center of the celebration. Breakfasts, brunch and lunch are big that weekend, and foods served include eggs (boiled, poached or fried), Easter bread (with raisins, nuts and marzipan), butter (in the shape of a lamb), croissants, cheese, ham, smoked fish and of course, chocolate (in the shape of eggs or rabbits).
Children decorate boiled eggs, and later will search for decorated and chocolate eggs hidden around the house and yard by Paashaas, the Easter hare. There are also Easter markets, special brunches offered at restaurants, and in some areas of the country, Easter fires are built and enjoyed by spectators. Another tradition is the sending of Dutch tulips, more than 40,000, to Rome that will decorate St. Peter’s for Easter.
While Easter is a religious- and family-centered holiday, King’s Day is spent with neighbors and friends, on the streets and in the parks. The King’s Day market is a big draw, when the sidewalks turn into a one huge flea market everywhere you turn. You may know that King’s Day was originally Princess’ Day, for Willem’s grandmother, and celebrated on her birthday when she was just Princess Juliana. When Juliana ascended the throne, the day was now Queen’s Day, and continued to be celebrated on April 30th. When Queen Beatrix, Willem’s mom, ascended the throne, she kept Queen’s Day on the last day of April even though her own birthday was in January. She chose to step down as monarch five years ago, so when her son Willem Alexander became King, the holiday was renamed King’s Day, and moved to April 27, Willem’s birthday.
We know for a fact that Douwe Egberts coffee will be served at these parties because Douwe Egberts is the most popular coffee brand in the Netherlands. We have fresh, Douwe Egberts coffee, made for the European market, and ready to be shipped to you. For the next few days, you will get 15% off your order of Douwe Egberts and Senseo products with no minimum order required.*

The Netherlands In The News
Come On, Get Happy
The United Nations annually surveys people in more than 150 countries, using six factors to gauge overall happiness. Respondents assess their lives against those factors – you’ll see those broken down in the report too. The 2019 report, released last month, shows the Netherlands at fifth, up one from last year’s report. You may recall that the Scandinavians are usually in the top spots: Finland was at the top for the second year in a row, followed by Denmark and Norway, two countries that moved up on the list. Iceland came in at fourth place. The top 10 list rounds out with Switzerland, Sweden, New Zealand, Canada, and Austria. The U.S. ranks at 19 this year, down slightly from last year.

Dallmayr: Literally The Best Coffees In the World
Dallmayr as a trading company began in Munich more than 300 years ago. At the turn of the 20th century, the business was being run by Therese Randlkofer, widow of Anton, who had only purchased the building and store from Alois Dallmayr a mere two years before. Under Therese’s direction, the company was recognized as a key supplier to the royal courts of Bavaria, Germany and other European royal households.
The business flourished so that the Dallmayr Delicatessen was soon recognized as one of the best in Europe. The store employed more than 70 people by 1912, and the space of the shop had been doubled by then. The Dallmayr coffee brand launched in 1933, unique at the time for roasting in the store with a unique electric roaster, and for storing coffee beans in hand-painted Nymphenburg porcelain containers.
Today, the shop is still open at the same location (rebuilt in 1950), offering over 6000 different products, along with sandwiches and salads. There is a two-starred Michelin restaurant, a café/bistro, and a raw bar, all on the original property. And, it’s still a family business.
Dallmayr coffee is flavorful with a smooth texture that is perfect for any time of day.
We think you will enjoy it too, so get 15% off your purchase of Dallmayr coffee with no minimum required.*

Dallmayr’s Quality From Bean To Cup
The first word that comes to mind when we drink Dallmayr is smooth, from the body to the finish. The beans are carefully selected from the best coffee-growing regions, then blended and roasted at the Dallmayr production facilities in the southeastern city of Geising, about a 45-minute drive due south from Dresden.
We really enjoy Dallmayr coffee, so here’s a sampling of our favorites.
Dallmayr Prodomo is the flagship product, with a strong aroma, a full-bodied taste and smooth finish. We have whole bean and ground. Try a milder version, Prodomo Naturmild (fine and soft, with a gentle aroma).
Dallmayr French Press Selection is a blend created with help from a popular French Press maker. The grind is extra coarse, which is perfect for the French Press maker. The blend is 100% Arabica beans, with a floral and spicy aroma.
Dallmayr Kilimanjaro is a single-origin coffee from Tanzania. These unique beans are grown at the foot of the famous and highest mountain in Africa, giving the coffee a balanced flavor with a light floral note.
For the Nespresso maker, we have 9 Capsa roasts in capsules, including newer special roasts in the Capsa line: Crema d’Oro (light, mild and balanced); Chocolat (notes of caramel and dark chocolate in a smooth, creamy espresso), and Vanilla (sweet and delicate, with a delicious aroma). Other Capsa varieties: Artigiano (strong); Azzurro (intense); Ethiopia (medium); and Decaffeinato (medium/dark).
These coffees are perfect for coffee drinks, but we can tell you that any Dallmayr coffee is great on its own!

Campfire Coffee Gets Upgraded
Not only can you make coffee while living off the grid, a new device will allow you to grind beans just before you brew your coffee. The company behind the device describes it as a Travel Automatic Coffee Grinder. It’s a coffee grinder, and looks and shines like a lantern. At full charge, this burr grinder can grind enough beans for 50 cups. It’s apparently quite popular for use while camping. The six LED lights stay bright for about 20 hours. Launched on Kickstarter 18 months ago, the devices are in high demand. They also offer a French press mug, light not included.
Marshmallow Coffee
A national donut chain is offering an iced donut with a yellow marshmallow chick resting atop. The same chain is also adding the flavor of sugar-covered marshmallow chicks to hot coffee and espresso drinks. We aren’t sure what else to say about this, so you won’t hear another peep from us.
