Market Pantry French Roast Coffee Review


[spoiler title=’Click 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 is not as good as the last coffee we drank today we are reviewing market pantry’s dark roast right which is from Target it’s like the store brand of Target so it’s 100% Arabica beans right and it’s supposed to have a full-bodied and rich taste full-bodied and rich I don’t have anything to say about that I thought you were gonna say that’s like you yeah I’m not full-bodied right and I’m not rich no I am NOT french roast Market pantry coffee oh right it’s french roast not just a dark roast sorry I messed up that’s okay uh so anyway the price on this was 399 for the 12 ounce bag so that’s cheap yeah that’s how much per pound however much 399 divided by 12 times 16 equals I’ll put it on the screen right so we just finished a micro roaster coffee d town Roasters Nicaraguan blend and that’s why we’ve been drinking before we started drinking this actually we were drinking this then we had the d-town and we were like we’re just gonna drink the d-town until it’s gone and then we started drinking this again it’s very hard to be impartial now because when you I mean there’s just no comparison grocery store coffee is just never going to compare to a high quality micro roaster right and I’ll point out for those of you who are gonna nitpick she said Nicaraguan blend we understand its a roast – oh sorry roast roast roast yeah blend would be different kinds of beans that yeah so but the point is is this coffee any good because you know at 399 a bag that is this is really cheap really really cheap yeah yeah so bottoms up and I gotta say the the smell coming from the bag and the coffee like after its brewed is super nice like it’s almost misleading I think it’s like it makes me think it’s gonna taste a certain way but then when I actually taste it I you know I get a little bit of bitterness a little bit not I don’t know isn’t but it’s not that bitterness I like sometimes like Pete’s like there’s like a it’s like roasty and and kind of bitter but this is I don’t know kind of just bitter without the roasty yeah it’s for me the drinking of it isn’t hard like it’s not like it’s not like offending me yeah but it’s not as good as the last coffee so that’s hard yeah it is hard see when they say rich I’m now comparing it to d-town Roasters it’s like mmm it’s not rich compared to that but you know but thinking back to other coffees like folders let’s say folders like black silk yeah and it’s not fair to compare it’s not fair to compare you know this type of coffee to an artisan roaster like d-town roasters yeah yeah it’s really not fair to do that so on its own though you know it does have a bit more flavor than some of the cheaper coffees I would say but now you know that’s pretty close right to the price we paid for a great value coffee right great value coffee I enjoy more yeah than this so to be fair though we haven’t had any great value coffee that is true so but okay but doughnut rating on this one would be I want to know you’re thoughts before I say anything like I think at this price I would buy it again maybe now that you know considering the great value coffee may not be available they’re roughly the same price you found a target but not a Walmart okay somehow maybe you’re in Northern California yeah yeah so you would say I think I pick a three I mean that would that would be the highest I would go yeah okay because I’m really trying to be fair and not saying this does not taste as good right as the Nicaraguan yeah that is true I mean I will say I will I will drink this whole mug of coffee and I will enjoy it I will think back fondly on the other coffee we had but I will also enjoy this so dreams of the Nicaragua roast yeah in our heads yeah and the more I drink that you know yeah it you know drinking helps you forget yeah yesterday yesterday I had to have a I can’t remember which coffee I drank but it was in the middle of you know I had the Nicaragua from d-town and then I had that other coffee and the other coffee just tasted like water mm-hmm Kayla was off at a coffee shop it was really good job java jive in a Hannibal Missouri right and I was having my water based coffee but yeah it was hard to drink but we have to put that out of our mind in order to do unbiased reviews overall three doughnuts I think I think this fair but yeah have you ever been to a target at all no and picked up any of the market pantry coffees I only noticed two when we were there but maybe there’s more than the French Roast and the medium roast which that review will be forthcoming but let us know what you thought about the coffees that you tried from there or if you plan to try them even after hearing our three donut review well thanks for joining us for this review and until next time keep grindin [/spoiler]
