Nescafe Gold Roastery Premium Decaf Instant Coffee 95Gm, Powder, Jar

Good taste and flavor

I bought it in September 2024 for about six fifty bucks.First impression - the box/tin is cheap and crappy, absolutely third class. Once its seal is opened, it definitely isn't airtight. This will lead to the coffee getting spoiled unless kept in a fridge. And even kept in a fridge, its aroma (the little it has) would not last long.Smell - not much of one. I have noted the same lack of aroma in nescafe gold blende, nescafe gold and nescafe gold espresso. The nescafe classic does have a strong smell but doesn't deserve to be called an aroma.Taste - Comparatively lighter.It is supposed to be a blend of robusta and arabica (the exact ratio is not mentioned).To compare, with country bean original (supposed to be 100% arabica and without added flavour), I use 1g of coffee powder every 50-60g of water (I drink it black); whereas with nescafe roastery light roast decaf, I have to use 1g of coffee powder every 40g of water.One explanation could be that it is supposed to be made of light-roasted beans (which are less bitter). The second could be that some of the taste is lost during the decaffination process - I cannot be sure as this is the first decaf I'm using. Both are acceptable if you want to enjoy a decaf coffee in our country since the options are quite limited.Decaffination - I will update when I have used this coffee for a cuple of weeks.To conclude,Only worth buying at this price if you are really looking for a decaf. Taste is ok but nothing worth writing - non-decaf coffees of much better quality are available cheaper. (The cost of necafe roastery decaf and non-decaf are quite same). The tin is abysmal - the nescafe should be ashamed over its quality.

Not very strong, lacks good aroma

The aroma is very nice.

It was ok nothing special in terms of aroma and taste

It’s very light and takes a lot to get the taste of coffee. I didn’t like it , will not order again
