    There’s a superstore nearby I can check out. Metro only had Nescafé, Tim Hortons, and Illy, so we went with Illy.

    I’ll also check if baby roasters do it, but I know the freeze dry game has gotten more sophisticated in the heat couple decades so no idea how much investment is involved from the roaster.

    Thanks!

      Most/many mid-sized roasters use a white-label manufacturer to make their instant. A company in Pennsylvania called Swift does for many. Intelligentsia and Verve use them, for example, and both get good reviews.

      Happy to help! I hope you find something you enjoy. If you ever think of it, come back either to this comment or make a post talking about it, I’m really curious what good instant options there are available.
