This seller is reliable and fast. I love this coffee, but it's hard to find.
Not sold in the US but known and enjoyed by millions around the world. There is no need/reason to pay this much for the same product.People who have never tasted good instant coffee I recommend Nescafe Gold. Nescafe Classic is Nescafe Classic.There is NO Greek Nescafe.You can use ANY Nescafe Classic to make 'frappe' if you want. You can use Nescafe Clasico (sold by Amazon LLC for $ 18.65 for 3 glass jars of 7 ounce each and free shipping) and it is way cheaper than this tinny Greek product and it is 100% the same Nescafe Classic sold all over the world.
To each their own. How does it taste.
But if you're addicted to coffee, and heat is unavailable or inconvenient, here's a product that might serve your purpose. Well, you can't have everything.
When I lived in Greece in the Seventies, I insisted on drinking what the old people drank, namely Turkish coffee ("emeis to leme elleniko" - "we call it Greek" said a blurb on the package). Since it doesn't need, really, to be heated, there's no messing about with stoves and cleaning.
Or perhaps prove that you're not the old-fashioned sort of Greek. However, Greek youth frequently spurned such stuff and drank instead the "frappes" made from the product you see here.
However, I've found a different use for it these latter days: I carry it on camping, and, especially, backpacking trips.
I've used Parthenon Foods for most of my orders and while delivery is expensive (~$10 per shipment), shipping does not seem to go up when you purchase more stuff (e.g., 3 cans of coffee instead of 1). I really enjoyed the Nescafe that we got in the supermarket this summer on our trip to Greece. Also really enjoyed the Eurocrem (a hazelnut/vanilla based spread) that is used on crepes in some shops in Greece and Yugoslavia. So, I just buy in bulk. Unfortunately, the "Classico" (note the "o" at the end) in US stores doesn't taste anything like this (yuk). Having run out of my small supply I brought back on the plane, I searched the web for Nescafe Classic (Freek style) and found this from two sellers online.
I recommend the product highly, as well as this vendor. I drink it daily, in place of percolated coffee, which I'll brew for special occasions. I started using this coffee b/c American instant brands are sub-standard. This is excellent coffee.
