I'll have to give it a try. I'm in no way willing to spend that much for coffee on a regular basis, but having a little on hand would be nice.

Right now I'm using Mount Hagen, which is a decent compromise on price/quality: it takes most of the bitter edge off compared to something like Folgers.

As a side note, instant coffee is an excellent way to make something coffee flavored, like in baking. I've even used it in small quantities to get a deeper, richer flavor in pumpernickel bread... I don't know how real bakeries do it, but it's the only way I've come close in taste to what a bakery produces.
