I've tried a number of instant coffees, and none were good. The only two options seem to be either tasting like the burnt sole of a decades old boot, or the most watered down Americano (or is it Canadiano now?) you've ever had.

I swear by Cafe Bustelo, one of maybe 3 brands I would shill for, alongside Costco and Darn Tough Socks

I feel the same Starbucks has an instant coffee that was surprisingly good. Nothing like the real thing imo
