Yuban Traditional Roast Coffee Review

[spoiler title=’Click to read the transcript.’ style=’default’ collapse_link=’true’] El sabor intenso del cafe Yuban proviene de una mezcla hey welcome to coffee coffee coffee your place for average Joe coffee reviews should you ban this coffee from your household today we are reviewing Yuban traditional roast hmm which is a medium roast 100% coffee it doesn’t tell you Arabica or whatever but right so yeah we had seen this in this store a long time ago mm-hmm never really wanted to buy it the price is not that tantalizing it is $7.98 a pound it was $5.99 for this 12 ounce and that was at that that would have been at Ken’s food market I think right yeah in American Falls Idaho that’s right which right now we are in Riverside California you know this to me is interesting because this is only 12 ounces and like if I just pick this up I would think it’s more than what’s in like a regular bag of coffee mm-hmm yeah if this was a can of soup it’d be like a pound and a half that’s true okay soup weighs more than coffee yeah so you know okay well the question is is it good coffee I think someone had recommended it yeah it’s been recommended a couple of times so the first time I ever had this coffee we had just had chocolate oatmeal cookies and I thought this coffee was the most disgusting coffee i’d ever put in my mouth i really did it was like Aldi daily basics all over again yeah and I explained to her I was like you just had a chocolate oatmeal cookie so obviously the taste of this coffee is not gonna be indicative of what the coffee really tastes like but that’s not really true because there are tons of times that I’ve had and I loved actually having coffee with my dessert and it’s always a compliment it’s never like oh this coffee tastes horrible it usually makes the coffee taste a lot better so I don’t know if my palate was just weird that day or I haven’t tried it again to like my son’s gonna have to make some chocolate oatmeal cookies and then maybe I can do that but uh so when I when we went to record it so I refused to try it since then I was like I’m not drinking that ever again until we do the review but when I went to taste it today it’s actually fine yeah and that’s what it is it’s fine mm-hmm you know for being the price that it is or that we paid for it at eight dollars a pound yeah it’s it’s not in line with other things that we’ve had at that price range it’s just a non offensive yeah blend yeah I guess I would say blend yeah even though it says on the thing deep rich flavor I don’t get the deep and rich I mean now one thing is I had a sip of his it’s just straight black and I will say that the cream in my cup I think is overpowering a lot of the taste but the the black tastes fine to me which is generally not something I enjoy what are you trying to show these people the grounds from a long way away kind of smells good I think but yeah yeah it’s I would say it’s just it is it’s like it’s fine I don’t think it’s offensive I think if you bought this and you served it to a group of people nobody would be like oh this is disgusting and just be kind of like this is just you know that kind of coffee you get like in a waiting room yeah I know one person who would really enjoy it and that’s cousin Eddie from the national lampoon’s vacation series he said oh Youban coffee yeah you can sprinkle that stuff on pretty much anything ice cream mashed potatoes or just eat it right out of the can for a quick pick-me-up so he really loves it yeah yeah out there frying chicken on a not frying it cooking chicken on a rock I think one thing though is if this coffee was a lot cheaper I think then I’d be okay I get it you know it’s really really super cheap and maybe the grocery store that we were in just had higher prices although it didn’t seem that way yeah it wasn’t yeah it wasn’t out of line it didn’t seem but that’s the only thing I’ll say it’s like if you can find this a lot cheaper somewhere else then I would say at like I’m gonna I would up my rating a bit but what would you say your doughnut rating is I’d probably be right at a 3 I would think yeah 3 with with hesitation yeah we wouldn’t buy it again at this price and probably wouldn’t buy it again at a cheaper price compared to you know the other things that we could get yeah yeah 3 just because it’s not offensive although you may find yourself in a place you know we talk about sometimes they’re like well great value coffee is so inexpensive just get it right but we were in that small town there was no great value coffee around and this was our choice so for like a church picnic or something this could be a go to coffee if you can get it at the right price yeah have you ever had Yuban traditional roast coffee before let us know
