There's nothing quite like a steaming cup of coffee to start your day at camp, but what if you're fastpacking and a camping stove is just a few grams too heavy? That's where Swiss company No Normal comes in, with a tube of coffee paste that you can mix with water, spread on a cookie, or even squeeze directly into your mouth for a caffeine hit with the taste of 100% dark roasted Arabica beans.
Instant coffee granules are cheap and extremely light, but it would take a certain dedication to settle down and eat them with a spoon. No Normal's paste is designed to be palatable even if there's no water available, offering a "strong and rich roasted profile with delicious notes of chocolate, nuts, and a little caramel."
