Is Mount Hagen instant coffee good for iced coffee?

Yes. The crystals dissolve in cold water, so you can stir them into cold water or milk over ice without brewing.

How does it compare with regular supermarket instant?

It tastes smoother and less bitter than most mass-market instants, but it is milder in body and costs more per cup.

Is it actually organic and Fair Trade?

Yes. Mount Hagen states the coffee is certified organic and Fair Trade.

How should I store the jar?

Keep the lid tight and the jar dry. Moisture makes the fine crystals clump, so avoid a steamy spot near the kettle.

Does it contain caffeine?

Yes, it is regular caffeinated coffee, not decaf.

How much coffee does one jar make?

The 3.53 oz jar holds roughly 50 to 60 small cups, depending on how strong you mix it.
