About this item
- BEHIND THE BLEND: Characterized by its deep structure and full-body, Buena Vista's Latin American roots yield a dark chocolate savor with a caramelized sweetness. Its smooth and consistent profile also makes it a very dynamic and adaptable blend that holds up well to just about every brewing device out there. So if you like waking up to a darker, richer flavor, look no further; Buena Vista will give you a dessert first mentality with the tasting notes of Chocolate, Red Apple, and Maple.
- FRESHLY ROASTED: Our coffee is small-batch roasted in-house daily out of our hometown of Santa Cruz, California, using a combination of vintage-style roasters and a state-of-the-art roaster, followed by a preservation technique that ensures its instant freshness just for you.
- FARM LEVEL INITIATIVE: Our commitment to positively impact the communities we partner with at origin, ranging from environmentally sustainable growing practices, sourcing directly from farmers, preserving heirloom varieties, and paying fair wages.
- VERVE COFFEE ROASTERS: From seed to cup, we seek ways to uplift each other from our commitment to ethical sourcing practices to delivering a product that makes for perfect mornings ahead. Welcome to Verve - we craft the future of coffee.
- HOW TO BREW: Add one packet into your mug with 10 oz. of hot or cold liquid (water, milk, or milk alternative), give it a good stir, and drink up. Discover the expiration dates conveniently located on the bottom of the package for an optimal taste experience and product freshness at its best.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2025Flavor Name: Streetlevel: Medium RoastVerified PurchaseMade a great 10 oz cup of coffee! Comes with individual packets for easy preparation or taking on the go. It is on the expensive side for instant coffee but a nice treat to make at home!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2025Flavor Name: Bronson: French Dark RoastVerified PurchaseTaste great. very convenient.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2024Flavor Name: Streetlevel: Medium RoastVerified PurchaseThis coffee was supposed to be dissolved into 10 oz. of water but that is far too much for the amount of product in each envelope. It resulted in a very weak cup of coffee, unsatisfactory taste and potency. Will not purchase again.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2025Flavor Name: Streetlevel: Medium RoastVerified PurchaseI travel a ton for work, and can't stand Keurig (or worse, those bizarre coffee tea bag situations), so I got this to see if I could do better. I haven't tried instant coffee in years, so wasn't sure what to expect. This taste like coffee, but ...weird. Overly fruity and vegetal. I'll probably bring it on trips with me, but won't re-order.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2024Flavor Name: Streetlevel: Medium RoastVerified PurchaseI am a coffee snob but highly impressed with this - big time. It has a very smooth and buttery flavor. A tad pricy but worth it. You will still save 1 to 2 dollars per cup versus going to the local Sbucks. Give it a try!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2024Flavor Name: Streetlevel: Medium RoastVerified PurchaseI drink a lot of coffee. Like a pot a day and some espresso. This coffee is quite strong. Really has a kick to it and considering it's instant, actually tastes palatable if not almost TOO strong.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2024Flavor Name: Sermon: Medium RoastVerified PurchaseThe coffee is expensive and not appreciably better than other instants like Nescafé. I won’t purchase again
- Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2022Flavor Name: Vancouver: Decaf Medium RoastVerified PurchaseI bought the decaf. My experience is that this instant coffee is low enough in caffeine and low enough in acid to work perfectly as a night-time hot beverage. 10 ounces of liquid is way too much for my tastes, I pour (by eye) about 6 ounces of Lactaid Skim Milk into a large ceramic mug, empty the packet of decaf into it and pop it right in the microwave using the "Beverage -- 1 Cup" setting. I don't even stir, and I don't use any water. When the microwave bell chimes, in about a minute, I use one of the little battery-operated milk frother wands sold here on Amazon (I like Aerolatte, but any brand would do I think) to both stir the coffee and froth the milk a little, in one operation of a few seconds. I get something like a misto, with no thought, no effort ... I don't really take my eye off the TV (which I can see from the kitchen). Not hitting PAUSE on the remote while I spend time grinding decaf beans, pulling decaf shots, and steaming milk has saved my marriage. This technique does not quite match the taste of my full coffee ritual, but it is close and perfectly acceptable for an average night at home, very relaxing cup, very low in calories, no fat.. BTW, I don't add any sugar, but if you do, I think you will need to stir with a real spoon ... the frother does OK to stir the coffee, but it failed when I added sugar for a guest who wanted to try this idea out.
