“Coffee is a language in itself.”
- Justina Chen Headley

What if learning a new language came with no extra effort and within a jiffy? Well, it might not be possible with languages, but certainly is with coffee! If you love having coffee, or better yet, instant coffee, we suggest you also be a little experimental with it. Try hazelnut instant coffee and fall in love with the universal brewing magic all over again. Serving the perfect blend of nutty goodness with extracts of coffee roasted just right, this instant coffee variant is hard to ignore.

However, it is crucial that you find the perfect hazelnut instant coffee to make the most of this flavoured awesomeness.

Check the expert tips discussed below and get yourself the perfect hazelnut instant coffee!

Tip 1: Must be Made with 100% Arabica Beans

The first step to buying the perfect hazelnut instant coffee for you is to ensure the coffee is made with 100% Arabica beans. Now, you must have seen it literally everywhere – billboards, TV commercials as well as news websites – “We use 100% Arabica coffee beans!”

What does ‘100% Arabica’ mean?
To understand what 100% Arabica coffee really means, one must know the basic difference in the kind of coffees that are available in the market. The two widely selling types are - Arabica and Robusta.

While several brands sell a blend of Arabica and Robusta, Sleepy Owl stands out with its claim of using only 100% Arabica bean that is of Grade-A quality, one of the best that can be found.

Arabica essentially makes up about 70% of the world’s coffee production. It is acclaimed as the 'better-tasting coffee'. On the other hand, Robusta is considered much lower in terms of its quality in comparison.

Since Robusta is cheaper and easier to grow, it is often found in lower-quality mixes or instant coffee.

The bottom line is – 100% Arabica coffee beans are ideal and when mixed with the Hazelnut flavouring, it provides a richer and better tasting nutty flavour uniquely associated with the hazelnut instant coffee.

Tip 2: Free from Sugar and Additives

The presence of sugar and other additives already in your instant coffee can seriously downplay the inherent flavours. Hazelnut flavoured coffee comes with an intense nutty and sweet flavour with a wonderful creamy aftertaste, wildly popular across the world. You can alter the acidic and bitter undertones based on how long you brew it. Now, the presence of sugar and additives in the coffee priorly will affect these customisations. If at all sugar or additives are required, you can always include that when you brew your instant coffee, and as per your liking.

Another primary reason why your hazelnut instant coffee should be free from additives and sugar is that these are known to have some harmful effects. For instance, they enhance cravings for food and can lead to weight gain.

Tip 3: Must Be Sealed Properly

In order to derive the best taste out of your hazelnut flavoured coffee, it is crucial to keep it absolutely fresh. Yes, coffee is resistant to mould. However, it can still go bad and stale if not packaged and stored appropriately.

Therefore, make sure the brand you’re purchasing instant coffee from uses advanced technologies and materials for packaging. Instant coffee usually comes in individually sealed containers which are both easy to handle and convenient to store for a long time. The packaging should be robust enough to keep your hazelnut instant coffee away from moisture and heat – two of its biggest foes.

Since Sleepy Owl recognises this, we have ensured our coffee is sealed with an airtight aluminium seal that keeps the freshness intact.

Tip 4: Made with Modern Technologies

While traditional has its unscathed beauty, one needs to acknowledge the importance of modern technologies too, especially when it comes to something as crucial as extracting and preserving coffee flavours. Some of the best instant coffee, including hazelnut instant coffee, is manufactured with top-of-the-line microground technology that helps preserve the genuine aroma of fresh coffee.

Microground Technology uses freshly roasted coffee that is finely ground to ensure it mixes well with the soluble crystals. This technology protects the genuine aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans and preserves the maximum flavour. As a result, you can enjoy a rich, flavourful cup of coffee, prepared within seconds.

Tip 5: Good Enough to Have it Both Hot or Cold

Finally, your hazelnut instant coffee must be intense and flavourful enough to have it both as a hot brew and a cold brew. The process is rather easy with Sleepy Owl’s Premium Hazelnut Instant Coffee. For the instant latte, you just need to add 1 teaspoon of coffee to about 100ml of hot water and froth till combined. On the other hand, for an instant cold hazelnut coffee, simply replace the hot water with cold water and ice and blend extra till frothy.

That’s all!

Follow these 5 expert tips and end your quest for the best hazelnut instant coffee without breaking a sweat.
