Crastan 1870 Instant Organic Barley (Orzo Solubile) is a roasted, instant grain-based coffee substitute made from 100% Italian organic barley, sold as two 125 g tins and designed to deliver a toasted, coffee-like drink without caffeine.
This pack contains two 4.4 oz (125 g) tins of Crastan 1870 Instant Organic Orzo Barley, produced in Italy from organically grown barley. The roasted, soluble powder dissolves quickly in hot water or milk and yields a dark, aromatic cup reminiscent of coffee in color and depth but naturally free from caffeine and added sugar. It’s a traditional European grain beverage—often enjoyed as mugicha, boricha, or orzo—suitable for morning routines, afternoon breaks, or chilled refreshments.
What does Crastan 1870 Instant Organic Barley taste like and how close is it to coffee?
The flavor is toasty, slightly nutty, and mildly sweet with the warm roast notes that mimic coffee’s depth without the bitter intensity. It produces a rich-brown infusion that visually resembles brewed coffee, making it a satisfying alternative for those seeking the ritual and mouthfeel of coffee minus caffeine.
