Review: Skinny Mocha Nescafe

Having arrived in a new country to embark on work, the first thing I brought was a box of Nescafe Skinny Mocha from the supermarket. Coffee is something that I've grown to love (and can't really live without these days) and mocha is my favourite sub-species of coffee! Who doesn't love …
