I'm most assuredly not a coffee snob (Folger's? Bring it on), but I just don't like the taste of instant. I will say that an AeroPress is one of my best investments for a quick, good tasting cup of coffee (faster and cleaner than my previous plastic pour-over thing that cost me $2).

Try Starbucks Via Instant. You might be surprised. I use it mainly for camping due to the ease, or if I run out of regular and can't bring myself to go to the store just for coffee right when I wake up, but I can't really tell the difference. Normally I grind the beans fresh for each batch and normally don't drink starbucks.
