Dunkin Donuts Original Coffee Review


[spoiler title=’Click here to read the transcript’ style=’default’ collapse_link=’true’] hey welcome to coffee coffee toffee your place for average joe coffee reviews today’s coffee is the og of coffee today we are reviewing Dunkin Donuts original blend Dunkies Dunkies yeah it’s a medium roast medium roast and that’s pretty much all you get I mean as far as they don’t really tell you how it’s supposed to taste it just I think says like something like smooth it’s smooth rich and smooth again like Ben Affleck yeah no tasting notes really so kind of go in to it blind yeah Dunkin Donuts coffee you know I remember when we went to Dunkin Donuts one time it was the first time I think that I had ever had coffee at a place and they they put only cream in it no sugar and it was like the perfect coffee or maybe that no no no no I’m telling this wrong it was cream and sugar but it was the first time I had had coffee out of the place where they actually put in cream and sugar and it was like the right amount the perfect amount it was like wow this is amazing now that was a one-time experience I will say because I remember going after that several times and it was like the coffee tasted burnt and everything but you know it’s kind of like hit or miss yeah now I drink just cream not cream and sugar but overall I think at the restaurant it seems kind of spotty you know it’s like sometimes it’s great sometimes its older coffee and different people making it but the coffee that we’ve actually brewed at home mm-hmm I really liked the Dunkin dark I really liked it remember you didn’t really like it but I really liked it and then the turbo we weren’t a fan and then we also tried the white peppermint something and neither one of us like that at all no it smelled like peppermint but it was not good mmm no this one was I mean it’s you know at that price point I’m looking for some good flavor you know got higher expectations I would say than like you know great value or something like that right and people in Boston got to know their coffee and they love dunkies right which I thought that maybe Dunkin Donuts coffee was from Boston but apparently JM Smucker owns it and that’s it yeah well oh okay actually the JM Smucker Company is using the license from Dunkin Donuts so right they’re roasting and everything and then putting it out licensed to roast yes under your name by law trademark right yeah yes they’ve got the manufacturing and said then they yeah they use it whatever what let’s see the main thing is does it taste good do we think it tastes any good you might be totally against what we say right does anybody have a napkin so okay I’m not a big fan of this coffee yeah the first time we drank it out of the bag it was it was pretty beanie I thought mm-hmm that kind of went away didn’t it didn’t hold that beaniness it was just that first time out of the bag tasted beanie yeah and there’s a little bit of a caramely type thing just a little bit yeah see I always I keep thinking there’s a lot more caramel flavor but then there’s also kind of maybe like a honey I know it kind of reminds me of hot tea like the way I would drink a hot tea not like at a Japanese restaurant that’s not what you mean Japanese restaurant I’ll put a lot of sugar in the hot tea well yeah I just mean like instead of it being like coffee to me it’s more like tea like I don’t know I just I don’t know it’s just how I taste it I just I can’t get into it as like a coffee right you know like I I want that kind of chocolatey roasty whatever and I just don’t like it that’s true yeah it’s missing it’s missing maybe they should go into the tea business and move to Britain right something like that maybe so what would you say for your doughnuts then two and a half yeah I mean I don’t want to go as high as a three because I would never want to buy this again right it doesn’t it doesn’t it doesn’t punch the right buttons yeah it just doesn’t I mean it doesn’t have that punch that it needs I can see how other people would probably like it I mean you know what I mean like because you can easily get it well yeah but what I mean it’s not that it’s offensive and it’s like oh that’s horrible coffee it’s just not the right kind of flavor for me so yeah you may like it I’d agree it’s it’s kind of weak and we make it the same way we make all of them which was a heaping tablespoon per 6 fluid ounce cup you know you can adjust to taste any way that you want to and maybe we could adjust it a little stronger but a lot of times we found that even making the adjustments it doesn’t really help yeah earlier this morning we were walking and it was 5 o’clock in the morning yeah and we heard a crack pop crack and about 20 minutes later a gigantic pine tree fell in the woods yeah so so right now the wind is blowing and we can hear cracks so we’re wondering what’s gonna happen yeah a little insight into full-time RV living and coffee reviewing right but so anyway two and a half donuts yeah yeah if you totally disagree with us let us know yeah and we’ll read the comment and we will probably put a like on it yeah and thank you for commenting but it won’t change our opinion on it unfortunately but if there’s another Dunkin Donuts coffee that you’ve had that you say you know what I agree with you about that original one but this one it’s really good it’s the way to go you should check it out we will check it out so put it in the comments and thanks for joining us until next time keep grindin [/spoiler]
