Starbucks VIA Instant Coffee, Italian Roast, is a game-changer for anyone who loves bold, full-bodied coffee but doesn’t always have time to brew a fresh cup. Here’s what I think after trying it: Flavor: The Italian Roast has a rich, robust taste with a hint of caramelized sweetness and a smoky finish. If you enjoy strong, dark roast coffee, this is right up your alley. It’s one of the best-tasting instant coffees I’ve had—far better than most store brands. Convenience: The individual packets are super easy to use. Just pour one into a cup, add hot water, stir, and you’re good to go! They’re perfect for busy mornings, work, travel, or camping trips. Quality: Made from 100% Arabica beans, the quality is impressive for instant coffee. It tastes pretty close to a fresh-brewed cup, though hardcore coffee purists might notice a slight difference. Packaging: The single-serve packets are convenient and stay fresh, but I wish the outer packaging was a bit more eco-friendly. Price: It’s a little pricier than other instant coffee options, but the flavor and quality make it worth it if you’re looking for something better than the usual. Overall: If you love a strong, flavorful coffee and need something quick and easy, Starbucks VIA Italian Roast is a great choice. Highly recommended for dark roast fans who want premium coffee on the go! Read more
Coffee on the go helps on those day when I am running late, or just need a little bit more pep. Italian roast is full bodied, good flavor. Read more
The coffee is great, but there is a big issue. This is an Amazon issue. They show a special box for Starbucks Via Instant dark roast coffee. It is a box you can stand up on your counter and there's a little pull-down tab at the bottom, so you can take your coffee packets out from there. THREE TIMES now when I order this coffee (which tastes great) AMAZON has thrown the loose coffee packets in to a plain brown cardboard box, tapped it close, and sent me the coffee in that. Last time I was upset so I called Starbucks and they claimed it was Amazon re-packaging it. When I called Amazon, they had no explanation. It's obviously AMAZON doing this, so I'm warning you in this review NOT to buy it from AMAZON if you want it to come in the packaging it was meant to be in. Read more

This is my go to coffee in instant. I prefer it over several brands of regular percolator coffee. The packets make one cup with little fuss. Just pour some boiling/hot water over it and you're all set. I particularly enjoy it in our RV because no coffee pot is involved, so there's one less item to carry and store. Read more
Have always ordered this product/excellent for traveling BUT check photo/this is how it was delivered! Read more
This product arrived as individual packets floating around in a box—not all packets in a single container as I’ve received before. A little inconvenient unless you have something else to put them in for storage. Read more
