D-Town Roasters Guatemala Roast 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. Today’s coffee comes from D-Town.

– Today we are reviewing D-Town Roaster’s Guatemala blend

– Right.

– They are based in Decatur, Illinois. They are a, what we would call a micro roaster, just a very small company and we’ve got some history with them if you wanna–

– Right. The woman who roasts it, she is the girlfriend of a guy that I served in Iraq with and he sent us the coffee to try and we’re always nervous about trying coffees that people we know make and small companies.

– Yeah, or even that we know that people like and they’re like “Hey, gotta try this,” and we’re like “Oh no, what if we don’t like it?”

– So sometimes, we just, we just try it and then we don’t review it if we don’t like it. But…

– This stuff.

– We were pleased with this.

– Oh yeah, very, very good coffee. So they just started in 2016, so they’re a very new company, but they are in some coffee shops in Decatur and they also sell at farmer’s markets and stuff. So if you want to find out about buying from them, go to their Facebook page. We’ll link to that in the description.

– But let’s get into what we

– Oh yeah.

– Tasted in this coffee. It was good so that way we were like oh okay.

– Yeah, I’m gonna put this down.

– Alright.

– Now I’m back, so…

– This is the Guatemala blend, and it kinda feels like we’re near the equator.

-Yes.

– Right now.

– It’s like 100 and I don’t know. It feels definitely higher than 100 degrees.

– We’re currently in Apaca, Florida so it’s right there north of Orlando.

– Yeah.

– And it is super hot.

– Yeah, yeah, it is. It’s right in the end of June.

– Yeah, so this coffee…

– First of all, any kind of coffee from a local roaster, or a micro roaster, it’s just so good. I mean, it’s just different than anything you can get in the store.

– You can tell they’re not trying to please everyone like a lot of times, the stuff you buy in the store is middle of the road.

– Right, there’s no outstanding flavor or anything. It’s just kinda like they’re trying to be people pleasers but this is just so much more flavorful, I think.

– Yeah, so I’m getting like a nuttiness. Taste that for sure.

– Yeah, nutty, it’s roasty, chocolatey to me is what I get a lot of.

– And really easy to drink.

– Very smooth. It’s just fantastic. I mean, I love this coffee and I’m sad that our bag is slowly dwindling down. It’s like “How are we going to get more of this “in our hands?”

– Yeah, she kept trying to drink it and I said “Wait, we haven’t done the review yet. “Don’t drink it all. “We can’t drink it all, we have to do the review.”

– Yeah, yeah, but very, very good.

– So yeah, I would say four doughnuts for sure.

– Oh yeah.

– I don’t even know what the price is but I’m assuming it’s right along the lines with other micro roasters.

– Yeah, yeah.

– Be sure to contact them on Facebook and find out what they’ve got available, like we said and if you’re in the Decatur, Illinois area, check them out, find out where it’s served, and where you might be able to pick up a bag of your own. If by chance, you’ve had any of D-Town Roaster’s coffees and you’re watching this video, let us know what are your favorites or what you thought of this Guatemala blend?

– Yeah, they’ve got a lot of different blends so yeah.

– Yeah, but let us know right in the comments below. So thanks for joining us, we’re gonna go get some towels. And until next time.

– Keep grinding.[/spoiler]
