Similar, but not quite the same (Noir is a bit better, richer and a darker roast; I guess Nestle decided that the Brits couldn't handle it full-force). Both are much darker/richer/better than the US version. Very annoying that Nescafe has created a dozen different products, customized for each country, and you find one you like but then can't get that elsewhere. Sometimes with the same brand name.
