Says it’s unavailable. Seems like it was fully absorbed into the maxwell house brand. They have maxwell house international flavors. They don’t seem to be the same though.
Edit: scratch that. The old flavors are there. There’s just more.

These seem to be an UK based company and product but I've found them listed in the US's Amazon site if you're not in the UK. Here's one listing where you can get 6 jars of choice for 27.99. https://www.amazon.com/Beanies-Flavored-Instant-Coffee-Caffeinated/dp/B07GC35QBX/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
I also love coffee and thanks! :) I also like it with soymilk or almondmilk so if you are into those (or probably any other dairy substitute - coconut would probably be delicious) definitely try it. If you like it cold like me then it's just a simple mix with a spoon and wait a few minutes for it to dissolve.
Worst case you end up using them like regular coffee. They definitely aren't half bad for how convenient they are. My favorite is their dark roast Italian. I just grab a couple packs of 8 from the local store every now and then
Look at any of your local asian markets. They will usually have several types of instant coffee packets, and MOST of them will be "2-in-1" (coffee and cream) or "3-in-1" (coffee, cream, and sugar) types.
My personal favorite brand is "G7," which is Vietnamese. Tastes great.
Also available on amazon, but it will likely be significantly cheaper in store.
Nescafe does a more expensive Azera range which is as good as it gets for instant coffee.

They also do premixed sachet which are pretty good (the best I have tried) but seem crazy expensive in India:

They also make durian coffee which smells like the real thing but has a less obvious source
I bought this instant coffee from amazon, and I think it's supposed to approximate what you described. Nescafe Classic Instant Greek Coffee I think it's also called a "frappe."
>One of the reviewers tells how he makes it:
>
>" I was in Greece this summer and had lots of Nescafe Frappes. When I got back to the US, I bought some instant Nescafe from my local grocery store, but it didn't taste as good as the stuff in Greece. In fact, I threw it out because it just wasn't good. When I saw that this instant coffee had Greek printed on the can, I decided to give it a shot. I'm glad I did, because it's delicious! My recipe is not frothy, but an easy way to make iced coffee: In a travel mug, mix with a small amount of hot water: 1 coffee scoop of instant coffee, 1 coffee scoop of sugar. Stir until dissolved, then fill the mug with cold milk and ice cubes. Enjoy!"
Found this one but I’ve never had it so can’t speak to the flavor.
I love cigars and coffee. Currently working through a sampler from Cigars international.
Latest cigar was a 5 Vegas Series A (toro 6x50)
Paired Coffee was a Vietnamese 3 in 1 coffee (normally I'm a black coffee person)
I get this stuff at Pacific Ocean Market in Denver (not amazon) and mix 2 sachets with 10oz of boiling water.

Mount Hagen instant/freeze dried coffee is the best one I've tried so far for camping.
If we're feeling fancy, we use a collapsible pour over with cone filters. Then you can use whatever coffee you like.
Otherwise it's Via or Mt Hagen
Starbucks VIA were my standard for a long time, but I've tried a few others recently and recommend them too...
Mount Hagen is great. A nice rich chocolately type, nothing crazy by the standards of 'real' coffee but it's perfectly fine in its own right. I get the jars here on Amazon. I drink coffee like a fiend but these last forever, I bought them in March and I still have plenty left in spite of drinking 1-4 cups on a daily basis at work. 20 bucks for months of work coffee is an incredible steal imo.
I love my G7 Vietnamese coffee (coffee+cream+sugar) in packets. Good warm brew, and good flavor...great for hiking. http://www.amazon.com/G7-3--Instant-Coffee-Sachets/dp/B008KZAFZM/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1412466054&sr=8-12&keywords=Vietnamese+coffee
so you're saying to first make a double shot of espresso with a coffee maker or instant coffee or something, and then mix that with one of these? and then simply add milk, and flavoring.
Then I mix it up, and refrigerate it.
Do I have the right idea?
The good stuff
You can make Greek Island style Frappe in around 45-60 seconds, maybe less.
All you need to do is put 2-4 spoons of the coffee mix in a cup(Note that is the exact brand/mix you need)
Put in 2-4 spoons of sugar and a splash of milk and then grind it up using this
Then you just add a bit more milk, 4-10 ice cubes and top it off with some water and done.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner: Mountain House Freeze dried is my go-to. The only downside I see is cost; there are a tonne of cheaper options. (I found these on super stupid sale and bought a few weeks worth) I love their lasagna... mmm...cheesy.
Coffee: Starbucks Via & Nescafe sweet and creamy instant sachets.
Trail snacks: Reese Pieces (500kcal/100g), beef jerky, probably some potato chips. I'll likely bring protein bars next trip, frozen the night before so they don't melt.
Day 1 though, I'm hauling a Subway 12-inch with extra everything... that hits the spot.
Oh, and Tang/Kool-Aid/Mio in those little flavour shot bottles for water, as well as oral-rehydration solution/Emergen-C. White pepper and Franks Red Hot powder.
I would recommend https://www.wakacoffee.com/ for a quality instant coffee. They also sell on Amazon

Nice! I've heard there's more of a coffee culture in the south than there is in the north, but best to be safe anyway :) I brought a bunch of these - it's instant pre-sweetened iced coffee, so you can stir it right into cold water and they're easy to carry around with you.
Consider Mount Hagen instant coffee. Great stuff.
And a handkerchief is awesome. Keep the sun off, keep the bugs off, wipe away sweat/sweatband, blow your nose, potholder/hot-thing holder, or just about anything else a small swatch of cloth might be useful for.
Alpine Start instant coffee. Way less hassle than a press and tastes really good
The ones I buy dissolve well in cold water, but I don't live in US so I'm not sure if instant coffee is the same in my country. Also they are supposed to be made with hot water, I don't know if it's healthy to drink it cold.
I found the ones I buy:
