Soluble varieties
To save time or in the absence of an apparatus for brewing Jardin grains, we recommend the Freeze Dryd line of instant coffee products; which type is best can be approximately selected based on the description of the flavors:
Guatemala Atitlan - tastes of medium roasted grains and caramel.
Kenya Kilimanjaro – almond aftertaste, harmonizes well with dairy additives.
Soluble type Colombia Medellin is the strongest of the freeze-dried ones.
Instant coffee initially contains less caffeine, so it is recommended for people with cardiovascular problems and a tendency to high blood pressure.
To choose the right flavor, you can use small disposable sachets for one serving.
