UK brand Grind is stepping into the instant coffee world with its Craft Instant Coffee, designed to bring café-quality coffee to your home in seconds. The new collection features two smooth [Barista](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craft-instant-decaf) Blends in regular and decaf, which are now available online and in-store at [Sainsbury’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brewdog-x-grind-coffee-stout), with availability at [Waitrose](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grind-espresso-martini), Amazon, and grind.co.uk starting October 13th.

Grind sources 100% Arabica beans from sustainable, ethically managed farms. Each batch is carefully roasted, ground, brewed, and then slowly freeze-dried into soluble granules. To enhance flavor, the instant coffee is blended with premium microground beans, giving it a rich, full-bodied taste that challenges the usual standards for instant coffee.

The blends can be prepared hot or cold, depending on consumer preference.
