1. What is Drip Bag Coffee?

Similar to tea bags, but containing ground coffee powder instead. The coffee bag has hard paper "drip ears" on both sides that can be hung directly on the coffee cup rim.

2. What's the Difference Between Drip Bag Coffee and Instant Coffee?

Drip bag coffee is made from 100% original bean ground coffee, with no other additives. It contains hundreds of health-beneficial components that can resist liver damage, various cancers, asthma, heart disease, and Parkinson's disease. Drinking 2-4 cups of coffee daily is beneficial. Non-coffee drinkers are more likely to suffer from these diseases than coffee drinkers. Research results from the American Coffee Institute show that coffee contains anti-dementia substances that can reduce the impact of harmful substances on the body and help prevent some diseases.

However, "instant coffee" cannot be considered coffee - this is a universally recognized view in the traditional coffee world. Instant coffee is an industrial synthetic product. In specific environments such as long-distance travel on trains and airplanes, it's a decent coffee substitute, but it's no longer coffee in its original sense. This is because traditional coffee enjoyment is very particular about everything from bean grinding, brewing, filtering, to the selection of equipment and different preparation techniques. During the synthesis process of instant coffee, the original nutritional and health components are destroyed and disappear. When drinking, although it has a coffee taste, it has lost the rich nutritional components and health benefits of coffee, as well as the profound cultural taste and atmosphere.

With fresh roasting and continuous preservation as main considerations, it's exquisitely roasted by top professional baristas, using Japanese-style new drip filter bags to easily extract exceptionally flavorful coffee. Each bag contains about 9g, with optimal flavor when used with 150c.c of water. When brewing, first inject a small amount of hot water to awaken the coffee powder that has been sleeping in nitrogen packaging, and let it sit for ten seconds to release the coffee aroma before injecting hot water to fill the cup. If you prefer it stronger, you can soak the filter paper bag containing coffee in water for 40-180 seconds.
