Barissimo Breakfast Blend Coffee Review


[spoiler title=’Click here to read the transcript. ‘ style=’default’ collapse_link=’true’]- Hey, welcome to Coffee Coffee Coffee, your place for average Joe coffee reviews. Get up, it’s time for breakfast!

– Today we’re reviewing Barissimo’s breakfast blend, which is a medium roast.

– That’s what you call a alliteration.

– Barissimo breakfast blend. Yeah, that is.

– Right? Hey, mom, I learned something in English class.

-His mom was an English teacher.

– Yeah.

– Yeah, so, it’s a breakfast blend. I don’t eat breakfast but, you know.

– Your coffee does.

– That doesn’t make any sense.

– Blends up eggs and stuff.

– Right, so Aldi has this coffee for cheap like–

– For Cheapo.

– How much, three.

– 79.

– $3.79 a bag. So super cheap. The question though is “Is it good?” It’s 100% arabica coffee. Is it any good?

– And is it just for breakfast?

– We haven’t been drinking it just for breakfast time.

– No, that’s not how we do things around here.

– No.

– We’re not communists. No offense, to all you communists. Actually, yes, offense. The smell is.

– The smell is like doesn’t really entice me, but–

– Yeah, it’s not good, not bad.

– Not a turn off. It’s just like I wonder what this coffee’s gonna taste like. I feel like I look like a walrus when I sniff. I don’t know.

– Yeah.

– Maybe.

– So, this coffee to me, there is a slight bit of that dry mouth thing going on that we’ve had with the other Aldi’s, but it’s not as noticeable, to me, at least. It’s a little earthy. A little nutty-ish. Nutty.

– I’m gonna say that’s got some nutty flavoring.

– To me this is better than the others, aside from Guatemala. It might have been slightly better.

– It’s a little nutty. You taste the nutty. Yeah, I think you’re right.

– It’s not my favorite coffee.

– Not much better.

– Yeah, not much better, but more enjoyable. Like a two and a half.

– I think so.

– Two and a half stars ’cause it is so cheap. I don’t think I’d really buy it again.

– No, ’cause they had other flavors that we liked.

– Yeah, Guatemalan.

– And if it’s available, then why not, right? For about the same price.

– Yeah, I mean it is–

– Six of one.

– It’s definitely, these are worth trying to see if you like them. ‘Cause they’re not offensive, but just that dry, the dry mouth thing that I just can’t past, but this one’s like meh, it’s like–

– But maybe you’ve got a lot of extra saliva and you don’t gotta worry about dry mouth. I don’t know.

– Where’d that come from?

– I have a lot of extra saliva. Every time I go to the dentist, they’re like “Wow. “You got a lot of extra saliva.” And like, “Could you use the child size x-ray panels, please?”

– He has a horrible gag reflex.

– They don’t do that. Like, “I’ll be done in a minute.” Okay.

– So, fun facts about us today. Well.

– [Both] Yeah.

– I think that sometimes this tastes better at different times.

– Yeah, at different times of the day, we’ve definitely noticed that. Sometimes the coffee that tastes good in the morning, in the afternoon it’s like not so much, and then vice versa too. It can be the other way.

– Oh well, maybe it’s different for you. At this time we’d like to thank you for joining us for another coffee review, and remember to leave comments below about your experiences with Barissimo coffee or other coffees that you’d like for us to try.
