The reason I buy Via is b/c it tastes better than the vending machine at work during a long afternoon! But my first choice would be fresh brewed. =) Thanks for the taste test.

It's pretty good as instant coffees go but not brewed quality. The texture or "mouth feel" is definitely not the same. The only instant I have ever cared for was a liquid coffee extract called Java Juice and even it wasn't quite as good as freshly brewed coffee. Keep in mind, I like strong, bold coffee and I drink it black so I can tell the difference between drip and French press.

But agrees that it is a watery consistency as well. I have not and do not plan to try it. Great review as always. My daughter likes the Via Italian Roast when compared to other instants.

I can't answer the QOTD because I haven't had it. I like how Jason points out how the marketing campaign, if true, will is like Starbucks shooting themselves in the foot.
