Abstract

A waterless coffee pouch is presented. The waterless coffee pouch includes a piece of permeable material that allows fluids to pass through. A quantity of ground coffee beans is placed on the material where the material is folded to form a pouch to contain the ground coffee beans. The pouch is a suitable size for placement in a person's mouth. A means for sealing the pouch is provided such that the ground coffee beans remain contained within the pouch when the pouch is placed in a person's mouth and the coffee flavor is released into the person's mouth through the material so that the person using the pouch may enjoy the flavor and benefits of ground coffee beans without the use of water.
