There are many desi specialty coffee brands/roasters who are doing an amazing job. Some of the brands I have tried and enjoyed are Marcs coffee, Blue Tokai, Oru, Cothas, Devans, Tribal Coffee etc

Blue Tokai Attikan Estate is really good for Espresso based Lattes, also Lavazza Puro Gusto

We have been devotees of Leo coffee for 30+ years. IN their outlets they sell pure Arabica, Robusta or Blends (sans Chicory). You could buy from 250 gms onwards. Get a coffee maker from Preethi for ease - else can use traditional coffee filter too.

Their flavours available in super markets have chicory in varying degrees (I haven't tried them though).

Cothas coffee comes close when I couldn't buy from Leo.

I have strong opinions about coffee. Read them at your own risk.

1. Instant coffee is not coffee. It's a coffee like flavored drink.
2. Chicory ruins coffee.
3. Only 100% Arabica. Robusta is not coffee.
4. Coffee should be like your woman's heart. Dark and bitter. Milk and sugar ruins it.
5. Beans must be ground fresh and consumed same day.
6. 15 bar espresso machine is must. But mokka pot/ French press/ aeropress is also ok, for a different type of taste.

To answer your questions, Blue Tokai, IKEA house brands are good. Starbucks is same thing for more money.
Never grind coffee beans in a normal mixie. A burr grinder is a worthwhile investment.
If you must buy instant, get Nescafe Gold region specials like Cap Columbi or Alta Rica. Davidoff is also not bad. Amazon sells them much cheaper.

OMG!! Having gone through the rocky path, absolutely agree with most of the points.
