Seattle’s Best Coffee 6th Ave Bistro Review

[spoiler title=’Click here to read the transcript. ‘ style=’default’ collapse_link=’true’]Welcome to coffee coffee coffee your place for average Joe coffee reviews. I’m average she’s Joe. So Joe what are we reviewing today? Okay today we’re reviewing Seattle’s Best 6th Avenue Bistro Number Four which is a dark roast bold and roasty. Mmmm bold and roasty. And so this is slightly different from the other review that we did. Remember it was like a it was a number four it was also like a medium dark roast. They’ve changed their branding so this one is also slightly different but they’ve also changed their branding so you’re going to start to see like the 6th Avenue Bistro and there’s like a couple of different ones, but the other one we had was Fairtrade certified and this one is not and so and there is a difference. And the other one was organic. Right. And this is not. Right. So will there be a difference in the taste? As far as price goes, this one was cheaper. We got it at Walmart for on walmart.com for like four something. Yeah yeah I think it was about the same price. A negligible difference. $4.50. If you wanna be a spendthrift, sure. Anyway okay so we we took we took some advice from a viewer watcher listener I don’t know how he consumes the content, and he said that we should not discuss the coffees beforehand. We do drink them beforehand because that we’ve talked about before is we want to drink a whole cup so that we can get the whole flavor and everything of it so we can tell you what we think about it, but we have not discussed this coffee with each other. We didn’t say like oh I like it or I don’t. Nothing at all. No no discussion has taken place so we’ll find out now. Yes. On this episode of coffee coffee coffee! So are you gonna drink it or are you gonna yack? Yep yes I like to yack. Don’t say yack anymore. Okay so overall well I want to know your impression because I mean I’m very opinionated. Pass. Pass? Really okay. In the other one I thought the other Seattle’s Best was better. Yeah I I agree with that. What did you find different? Because there was a particular thing that I thought and I wondered if it was just me or not. What was it? Uh flavor. Well okay but specifically to me it was slightly more bitter. Like it was just a bitter kind of flavor and I didn’t get that on the other bag so maybe it’s the organic thing. Maybe. Maybe or fair trade. Maybe fair deals make the coffee sweeter. Yeah I don’t know. I don’t know what did it either, but the other coffee was better tasting in my opinion. This one is a more bitter. Yeah yeah. Bitter mas. Yeah yeah bitter what? Mas. Uh okay yeah but yeah so this is still a 100% Arabica and it’s a medium dark. It says on here dark but before it’s said medium dark. Anyway. Yeah. Overall I don’t think I would buy it again I would go for the the organic Fairtrade. Yeah. Which is not typical of us. Right well. I mean, not that we don’t care… We don’t… About the environment. We don’t go one way or the other as far as organic Fairtrade whatever typically is least expensive and still tastes good. So if it happens to be organic and fair trade and that actually means something and the farmers are being treated fairly then fantastic. Right yeah. Happy to support them on a product that tastes better. Right but you also want to like because sometimes I think there’s probably reasons why things aren’t fair trade certified. There probably is more cost involved and so it could hurt farmers still if you don’t buy like if you don’t buy it on purpose it could maybe still hurt the farmers. Right. You know what I mean? Am I making sense? Or dollars. Okay well I think that does it for this coffee review. Was there well was there any sort of flavor? Yeah I felt like it was very very similar to the other one so it was kind of it was a nice like rich flavor I felt, but it was just there was just a bitterness that I just didn’t… Yeah. I mean it was certainly like if I if somebody bought it for us or like if we bought it on accident or something then I wouldn’t be mad. Like there are some other roasts where I’ve been like oh I do not want to drink the rest of this cup. Yeah if somebody shows up to our house with a bag of Publix House Blend or Dark Roast, we’re kicking them out. They’re never allowed to come back because obviously they’re not consuming our content and know that we will not consume Publix coffee. Well that was pretty strongly worded but… So was that coffee’s nasty flavor. Well yeah except for it might have just been those roasts. We still have a few more that we have to yep sorry it’s going to happen. Okay. Terrible. So if you have a coffee that’s not Publix that you’d like for us to try, you can contact us via fax… I’m just kidding. You can find us on Facebook Instagram YouTube and on our website at coffee coffee coffee show.com and that’s how you find us on the other social media places. That’s it. So remember send it to us for free. We will try it. Don’t let it be Publix or you will be blocked from our channel. Oh gosh. Just send us suggestions and we will buy the coffee. That’s true. You could do that. Okay. All right. Ciao. Bye bye.[/spoiler]

  1. I’m sorry to say but this coffee is so BAD .the house stunk so bad I had to get it out of my house. bag in all…I never smelt anything so BAD….. how can I send it back to you and you send me my money…if this is Seattle,s best ……IM SORRY

    1. Donna, we agree with you about this coffee. As you can see in the review notes, we said we would not buy this coffee again. They make a different version of the 6th Ave Bistro which is their Fair Trade/Organic roast and THAT we would buy again. We don’t know how they can be so different. Here is the link to our review of the good coffee when it was called Signature Blend No 4. https://coffeecoffeecoffeeshow.com/seattles-best-signature-blend-no-4-coffee-review/

  2. We also hate this coffee!!! We both tried it and could not even finish our cup!
    The whole fresh bag is now in the compost.

    1. It is so odd to us that the 6th Avenue Bistro Fair Trade does taste good while this plain 6th Avenue Bistro doesn’t taste that great. Thank you for watching!

  3. Hello! I just would like to give a huge thumbs up for the great info you have here on this post. I will be coming back to your blog for more soon.
