Free Samples

As long as we're discussing the coffee convenience trend we should touch upon the Starbucks Via instant coffee packets. I have never tried Starbucks Via, and I have no desire to. However, I won't turn down free samples either. Nescafe:  Taster's Choice has brought out their own packet and they are giving out free samples of all six varieties.

So, lets try them together and discuss what we think.

They are claiming their coffee packets are cheaper and better tasting. Maybe they are, but are they better than your regular brew?

I'll let you know in six to eight weeks.

P.S. As far as I can find, Starbucks is no longer offering free samples of Via. Too bad for you, Starbucks, I would've tried both to make it a fair fight.
