I've got Medaglia D'Oro (Gold Medal) instant espresso, but I would be more likely to take the Taster's Choice (Nestle) Packets. They are relatively inexpensive and hold more coffee than most packets. When I drink instant coffee, I usually add hot chocolate mix to bulk it up and soften the taste of the instant. I can tolerate the instant coffee, but don't enjoy it like I do fresh brewed. I have some washable coffee filters that I made from muslin and I might just take some fresh coffee for a little enjoyment. Another possibility is Coffee Nut M&Ms. When I take them,I bag them up in small servings so I don't eat the whole bag at once.
