99p for a box of eight sachets from my local 99p shop. Macchiato is another term in the weird and wonderful world of Italian espresso coffee. Macchiato means spotted or stained. The regular macchiato is an espresso with just a small amount of milk froth on top.. This is also known as a caffe (or coffee) macchiato or an espresso macchiato. Popular in Italy, especially with tourists, is the latte macchiato, which is an Italian latte (simply hot milk) onto which is poured an espresso which sits on the milk in a layer, and then a top layer of milk, which sits on the coffee, and then a spot of espresso on top of the milk. It's all about the look. The finished result is simply a latte - a very milky espresso, but presented in pretty layers. it's a drink that women like.
This boxed instant coffee is meant to replicate the regular macchiato. Think of it as a more coffee tasting instant cappuccino. I kind of like it. It's not top quality, but it's drinkable.
