Nescafe Espresso Coffee

Whilst I’m not an enormous drinker of coffee, I get cravings from time to time, especially when socialising with friends who are big coffee consumers. I DO love the smell of coffee brewing and find coffee shops wonderfully sociable places – I’m quite happy to just tag along and have a cold drink, absorbing all those wonderful smells and sounds around me. I’m more likely to have an Espresso when I’m on holiday or when I’ve just had a formal dinner. At other times, I’ll have a more sociable coffee – something like a latter or a macchiato. I’m NOT normally a buyer of instant coffee. What’s an ... more

NESCAFE ESPRESSO COFFEE INTRODUCTION I am something of a coffee addict; and when I have my coffee I love it strong and black. I work 14 hour shifts and during such night shifts I am constantly knocking back coffee in an attempt to help stay awake. Oh but this is SO bad for me, ‘they’ tell me that caffeine is a stimulant.

I’d never tried an Espresso before I tried this. I suppose I was a bit scared of the ‘short and very strong’ type flavours that surrounds the coffee. I’m someone who likes a creamy coffee, with quite a bit of milk, and I’m a sucker for a cappuccino. But after giving Nescafe Espresso a go, I was pleasantly surprised and will probably be drinking a lot more of Espressos from now on! Nescafe host a wide range of different coffee’s, from their Original to coffees such as Costa Rican and others. Espresso is just one of their ‘Black Jar’ range. The coffee in the black jars are the ‘better’ coffee’s ... more
