Made in Japan, AGF Maxim is a freeze-dried instant coffee with a rich aroma and smooth, mellow flavour. Its rounded profile is pleasant enough to enjoy black, yet remains expressive when combined with milk. The granules dissolve quickly, making it easy to prepare hot coffee, iced coffee or a concentrated coffee base without a machine.
Beyond the cup, Maxim is also useful for tiramisu, coffee buttercream, cakes, mousse and other desserts that need a balanced coffee flavour. Each 80g jar prepares approximately 40 servings.
40 servings of liquid joy await.
According to our in-house chef: “The flavour is more luscious and nuanced than typical espresso capsules—versatile enough for sipping or baking.”
