Coffee bags made of plastic
I won’t buy again, despite loving the taste of the Robert Timms coffee bags. I recently realised that the coffee bags are made of plastic. I’ve been adding the used bags to my worm farm for months, and today I removed about 100 coffee bags, which had not even begun to break down. If my worms won’t go near them, nor will I.
Purchased in March 2021.

Coffee bags have the taste & convenience
I've only recently become aware that coffee bags are available. An overnight motel stay introduced me to Robert Timms coffee bags, and I subsequently found them in most supermarkets.
They come in 3 varieties that I am aware of; Mocha Kenya Style, Gold Colombia Style, and Italian Espresso Style. Each bag is individually enclosed in an air tight wrap.
Wonderful! The aroma of ground coffee when the sache is opened, the different flavours, and the convenience. What a great compromise between brewing ground coffee, and instant.
I am now spoilt, and will abandon all instant coffee and my coffee plunger for these Robert Timms coffee bags.
Purchased in December 2021 at Woolworths for A$9.64.

Great coffee for a really good price
I used to drink Moccona on the regular basis, it was a good brand of coffee but it was rather expensive and I decided to look for a cheaper alternative to the Moccona brand and found Robert Timms. I bought a 200 gram jar for $8 and was rather surprised as to how good the coffee tasted, I was expecting it to taste as bad as International Roast but it was far better than that swill. My favourite Robert Timms coffee is the Espresso, its got a nice strong flavour that's robust and clean. I've been drinking Robert Timms coffee for the last 3 years and haven't bought a different brand of coffee since.
Purchased in January 2021 at Woolworths Physical store for A$8.00.

Amazing flavor
The flavour for an instant coffee is amazing. It gives you the best bitter after taste you'd expect. This not for the latte sippers or for ones Who seek mild aromas or milky concoctions. This is strong coffee - as meant to be.

My favourite instant!
I was always a Maccona person for a long time but then I stayed at a friends house for a week and she had a jar of this RT Premium Espresso and now I’m a convert!
Love the flavor and look forward to my mug of coffee every morning.

Coffee bags are made of plastic
I have been purchasing Robert Timms Espresso Style coffee bags for many years. I really enjoyed the flavour of a percolated coffee in a convenient tea bag. That was until last night when a visitor came around and complained about a plastic smell whilst I was making her a coffee. I could not smell anything and I explained to her that my kettle was made from full stainless steel. After we investigated we found that the plastic smell came from the coffee bags in the cups full of hot water. I then grabbed a coffee bag and lit it on fire and it star...Read more
ted to melt into a black blob. I could not believe that Robert Timms coffee bags are made with high proportion of plastic. After doing some research I found that several tea bag and coffee bag manufacturers use a sealing plastic called polypropylene to keep the bags from falling apart. When you putt plastic tea or coffee bags into hot enough water it will begin to break down. When this happens, toxins are released into the brew. Research suggests that consistently drinking these toxins could cause health issues. I am now on the look out for another brand of coffee that does not use plastic in their coffee bagsSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

How can you even call it Premium Espresso?!
Awful taste, feels like it dries out your mouth and I spent half an hour trying to wash the taste out of my mouth. For a product called Premium Espresso, it is as bad as the cheap office supplied instant coffee.

Delete me see if I care
Still have the same opinion of Robert Timms Espresso coffee. Apparently if your comment does not concur with the marketing ideal then censorship is the deal. Nice knowing you, so long, gotta grab a decent cup of joe! Thirty nine, forty fortyone, fortytwo, fortythree, fortyfour, fortyfive, fortysix, fortyseven, fortyeight, fortynine, fifty!!!!!!!!

Best Coffee but............
This is the best instant coffee I can buy in Western Australia since Mexican imports disappeared.
However, there is a big but......
Who in the Marketing Department had the bright idea for the lable to disappear when you open the jar. A loose wrap-round lable is the most pathetic idea I have ever come across because both the brand and the flavour base are lost on opening.
If you're like me and don't remember everything, on the next visit to the supermarket, I buy the wrong flavour! And I don't like what we call 'soft coffee'.
So - wake up Robert Timms. Espresso is the best available but help us buy it.
