I've had this style of coffee in hotel rooms in Asia and, in my opinion, it's preferable to instant. I was in Maine with friends a couple of weeks ago and spotted packets of "Steeped Coffee" in the Bluebird Ocean Point Inn, East Boothbay: https://steepedcoffee.com/collections/coffee We weren't staying there but but had stopped to inquire about the restaurant. I asked the receptionist about the coffee and she offered me a packet. Disclaimer: I haven't tried it yet.
