[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 reminds me of the tree frog that almost kept me out of my camper last night.
– What? So today we are reviewing McCafe’s Columbian Coffee. It’s supposed to be crisp and complex.
– Mm hmm.
– It’s a medium dark roast, 100% Arabica, but the beans are from Colombia, so you know.
– And it’s rainforest certified, rainforest alliance certified, that’s why it reminded me of the tree frog.
– Which he’s afraid of, by the way.
– Yeah, that’s why it almost kept me out of the thing. I saw it on the top of the door and I thought mmm, I can sleep outside tonight.
– Right.
– But anyway, McCafe coffees have been surprising to us.
– Yeah, we had I think low expectations because, McDonalds. I mean, McDonald’s coffee, some people like it some people don’t, but I’m just saying when you think McDonald’s, you don’t think gourmet, really. But the coffee has been surprisingly good.
– Yeah, I don’t think all of them. I can’t remember everything exactly, but we have been pleasantly surprised about coffees. And also, about organic coffee, well, this isn’t necessarily organic.
– Right this is not organic, it’s just the certification.
– But we don’t know what that certification is.
– It just means it’s supposed to be rainforest friendly.
– We do know what that certification means.
– But who knows who’s checking on the people who are doing this, really.
– That’s right.
– They put it on the bag, hopefully they’re being truthful.
– I would hope so, too. This is a Columbian coffee, we’ve had many different Columbian coffees. Let’s drink this and tell you what we think.
– So this one to me, I like it a lot. It’s not my favorite, again, because it seems like all Columbian coffees kind of have this bold flavor, would you say bold?
– Yeah.
– I would say bold.
– Yeah.
– But it seems like it always has this same profile and it’s just not my favorite, but it is good. Does that make sense?
– Yeah snd it is smooth, I think, easy to drink.
– Oh yeah, very smooth, very easy to drink, it’s just, I kind of want a different kind of, I want more chocolately roasty, and this is just more. It’s good, smooth, I would say bold.
– Right, what is the complexity about it?
– Maybe because we’re tasting all these different things. I think bold, you think smooth, all that, maybe?
– Mm hmm.
– Yeah, but I like it, I think it would be crowd pleasing. I don’t think anybody would be like, ugg, this coffee’s horrible.
– Right and we didn’t talk about the price, and that’s one thing I don’t think I can remember what we paid for it.
– Yeah, it’s been awhile since we bought this. McCafe tends to be on a $7 a bag. It’s not that bad, as far as price goes. It’s not cheap, but it’s not bad.
– However, somebody did point out in a comment the other day on a separate video, I think it was on the french roast, that if you buy McCafe in the can, you can get more coffee for less money.
– A lot more. And I guess that may depend on where your store is.
– Where you’re at.
– But look at that if you want to get it in the can.
– Yeah, because I think at Publix they don’t sell it in the can, but I think Walmart does sell it in the can. That’s the two places I know of.
– What would you say donut rating-wise? Sorry, there’s two beautiful cardinals over there. Actually there’s four cardinals, two male and two female. It’s beautiful.
– I don’t know, donut rating.
– I would think at least a 3 1/2. Yeah?
– We don’t discuss these things. Yeah, 3 1/2, yeah.
– Yeah, because overall it’s good. Easy to drink, you can get it at a fair price. It’s readily available.
– Yeah, widely available, yeah.
– And it’s good to the rainforest.
– It is, maybe, we’ll see.
– Yeah, if you’ve had this McCafe Columbian coffee before, let us know what you thought about the complexities of it and the crispness, that’s a hard word to say.
– Crispness?
– Merry Crispness, see, that’s not the same. Let us in the comments below, or if you’ve tried it a different way or something like that let us know and we’d be happy to talk about it with you. So again, thanks for joining us, and until next time.
– Keep grinding.[/spoiler]
