Cupping Method:as directed on the packaging
I dont love sweetened coffee, so this is not normally up my alley. For a sweetened, instant product, it was tasty and a bit odd - the honey flavor comes in with a punch, and the coffee flavor is more like an afterthought. I could see taking this on a backpacking trip when an instant would be handy on a cold morning in the woods and the sweetener would get me going for a long day of hiking.
This prepackaged honey and coffee blend had a very strong honey flavor (actually a bit too sweet for me), but the coffee flavoring was a bit muted. When I am at work, without cream available, I keep some condensed milk on hand to sweeten. This honey/coffee blend is even more handy because nothing else is needed! I tried the latte, cafe cubano, and cacao and they all presented as similarly flavored to me.
I thought I'd share that I tried 3 Bee10 packs and I actually liked them all although it's probably not anything I'd ever drink or buy outside of sampling, just because I so rarely do anything sweetened. I liked Cubano the best, and I'll probably just leave one review here. I do think there's people who like coffee and honey, and personally I like it as a sweetener more than sugar. I like green tea, honey, and lemon, and I always make a freaking mess. I think the creamed honey and concentrated coffee here works well and has a good mouthfeel. It's easy to mix (sort of a creamed honey consistency) and control strength.
