I know, they said so in the rabbit hole, too.
What's your setup, routine and what coffee do you use on trail?

I'm firmly in the instant camp (sic) while on the trail.

What do they charge for a coffee in a Turkish cafe?

Interesting, but it reads more like an advertorial to me, citing lots of brands, products and related marketing copy but not telling very much about the coffee you get out of these products. The bit about cowboy coffee is behind a paywall, they probably couldn't get any brand to sponsor that. A few strong statements thrown in at the beginning to catch the readers attention. Sugar or no sugar, wouldn't want to lock that down, unless you only ever drink the same one type of coffee all your life.Old article, recent update:

That reminds me of the old maxim; "if you can learn to enjoy black coffee, you'll never be disappointed in life."“Adding sugar to coffee is criminal”
I love life and only drink black coffee so it must be true

Making coffee on trail as a thru-hiker doesn't have to be a burden: it's still possible to enjoy a great brew every morning if you plan ahead.

I tried the coffee in a tube stuff so you don't have to... and wasted a few £s in the process (but if I'd discovered how much I dislike the stuff on trail I would have been distraught).
I have had two cups; I know that I prefer fruitier/less dark coffee more than dark roast - but this is very bitter/dark, and the descriptions I've read about it not being very sweet - well, I guess it depends on your taste buds, but this was very sweet to my taste, and very dark, tobacco like... so if anyone wants the rest of the tube let me know...

They sell it at Base Camp Food now or did you get it there?

I got it from Base Camp, very quick service as usual. Shame it is now in the bin!!

Sounds revolting. I don't take sugar either so it's by the by anyway. I think they are threatening to bring out an unsweetened version.

I think if you like dark coffee it'll be okay, but definitely not for me!

I'm good. It's more money and seems like a gimmick really. Relatively heavy too I imagine
