How to make it

1 level teaspoon (~1.8 g) per 4 oz of hot water, or 2 teaspoons for an 8 oz mug. For iced coffee, dissolve the granules in 2 tablespoons of hot water first, then add ice and cold milk or water. Reseal the bag after each use. A 450 g bag makes about 250 cups of 4 oz.

FAQ

Is Buendia the same company as Juan Valdez?
Both are brands of the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation. Buendía is the freeze-dried brand of its Buencafé plant. Juan Valdez is the Federation's consumer coffee brand. We also carry Juan Valdez freeze-dried instant coffee, 8.8 oz.

Is freeze-dried coffee better than regular instant?
Freeze-drying works at low temperature under vacuum and keeps more aroma than spray-dried powder. Read why freeze-dried coffee is better.
