New Orleans Famous French Market Coffee and Chicory 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 has a flower in it.

– Today we are reviewing New Orleans Famous French Market Coffee and Chicory Dark Roast. What are you doing?

– My French mustache.

– Okay.

– That I could never grow.

-So we’ve never tried chicory coffee before.

– No, first time, never.

– Yeah, and it’s so it’s coffee and then there’s chicory. Chicory is part of the dandelion family. We had to look that up ’cause we didn’t know. It’s been used as a coffee substitute before and sometimes people just add it to their coffee.

– The civil war.

– Yeah.

– Probably is when it was most used.

– Also.

– That’s my guess.

– Yeah,that’s just a total guess. It has some calories in it which is interesting. Normally when you, I mean there’s never the nutrition facts but there is. And so it’s got one carb and 10 calories per two teaspoons.

– Interesting.

– Yeah.

– That’s surprising too to have that kind of thing on the coffee. All right so this coffee was 3.99 a bag on sale. That was a pretty good sale, it was originally six bucks.

– Right, yeah.

– So that’s pretty good.

– Yeah, so it’s a medium, I would call that a medium priced coffee for us. Whatever eight dollars a pound normal price.

– Yeah.

– 8.80 a pound yeah.

– Yeah. If you’re in San Francisco paying $40 for a bag. I don’t know. That wouldn’t be the same.

– I don’t think that’s a thing. So this coffee to me is like totally different then what you would expect in a cup of coffee. To me it’s very cocoa flavory.

– Right.

– Cocoay.

– Like a cocoa powdery type.

– Right. Yeah, like cocoa powder. That’s exactly what’s it’s like for me. And there’s a sweetness to it.

– A little bit, yeah.

– To me.

– We were talking about that a little bit before. I put sugar in mine so I didn’t taste that as much as she does.

– Yeah.

– But there’s also a hint of a nuttiness.

– Yeah, a little bit of nuttiness. But when I tasted this I only put half and half in it so I never have any sweetness normally but this is really got a sweetness and then also, the bag does say it has one carb.

– Right.

– So that is some sweetness. So yeah interesting.

– Yeah. But overall I would say yes, we’d buy it again. I think probably our rating might be a little higher than what I’m thinking if it were less expensive all the time.

– Yeah, if it were less expensive all the time.

– But it’s not necessarily.

– Yeah.

– So I was thinking three and 1/2 donuts, out of five.

– Right, yeah. I think for, yeah three and 1/2 is fine. If it were cheaper I’d probably be at a four.

– Yeah.

– And also just a other quick note is the, when I tasted this just now I kind of almost have a, it’s like a soapy taste at the verybeginning for me. I don’t know, but that being said I really do enjoy this coffee. The first sip, just kind of, I think it’s just so different. Then what I’m expecting.

– Yeah.

– Then it’s like oh, okay. And then I adjust it, but I do like it overall.

– Well let us know if you’ve ever tried a chicory coffee before or if you’ve just had straight out chicory.

– Yeah.

– Like your gangster like that. I don’t think you’re supposed to say the R.

-Gangsta.

– Gangsta. Like that and you have Straight out chicory coffee.

– Right.

– Let us know in the comments below and thanks for joining us for this review. And until next time.

– Keep grinding.
