Why we say this

Product information
About
An instant café au lait powder in eight single-cup sticks that you stir into hot water, and it tastes of mild coffee and milk with a medium sweetness. Buy it if you like a sweet white coffee, or find black coffee too bitter; if you want a strong coffee or one without sweetness, this is the wrong product.
On the pack: カフェオレ (ka-feh-oh-reh, "café au lait", coffee with milk), under the Blendy stick logo.
What you're getting
- Of the Blendy café au lait sticks we sell, it is sweeter than the espresso and barely sweet ones and less sweet than the extra-milky Torokeru ("melting") Milk one.
- The sweetness comes from sugar plus two sweeteners, aspartame and acesulfame K.
- The coffee taste is mild rather than strong.
- The milkiness comes from creamer powder and milk protein, not fresh milk.
- It is an ordinary caffeinated coffee, not a decaf, so treat it like any other cup of coffee late in the evening.
- Allergens: milk. Read the pack's own label before you rely on ours.
- Also on the label: it contains aspartame, a source of phenylalanine, so anyone with phenylketonuria (PKU) should skip it.
To make it iced, dissolve the stick in about 90 mL of hot water before you add the ice; it is not one of the sticks made to stir straight into cold milk.

Creaming powder (contains milk) (made in Japan), instant coffee, sugar

Our guide
How to eat it
- For a hot café au lait, tip one stick into a mug.
- Pour in about 180 mL of hot water, AGF's usual amount for its sticks.
- Stir until no powder is left floating on top.
Good to know
- If it tastes weak, use a little less water next time, or make it with hot milk instead of water.
- For an iced one, dissolve the stick in about 90 mL of hot water first, then add five or six ice cubes and stir until cold.

What Japanese buyers say
- What they like
I got hooked on Blendy's bitterer "grown-up" stick for a while, but this one's sweetness is just right.
一時期ほろにがにハマったこともあったけどこれの甘さがちょうどいい。
from monolog, a Japanese review site

Just a stick and hot water, so it's easy and tasty.

As I kept drinking, the artificial sweetener came through strongly and it got a bit cloying.

I don't like bitter coffee, so this gently sweet café au lait is all I drink.

- What they like
Other makers' sticks often leave powder undissolved, but this one dissolves straight away, so there's hardly any stirring.
他のメーカーの商品は、お湯を注いだあと溶け残ってしまうものが多いですが、こちらはさっと溶けるので、混ぜる手間もいらず助かります。

Maybe because I'm more used to Nestlé, it wasn't really to my taste.
