Toasted Almond Cream Coffee Review

Full of toasty, nutty notes and smoothed over with a soft brush of delectable cream… for a delicious taste and aroma. Now who would pass that up? We didn’t!!!

Well that is the description, Kaffe Exotica gave it’s ground coffee that hubby tried for this week’s saga of Try Something New Tuesdays. If you saw the last post, then you know that it was one of the items that we purchased during our haul at Burlington Coat Factory.

I, personally am a scent person, so while we were about to check out, and as I mentioned before that I usually stop to take a looksie at what snacks and other food items they have near the registers, we took some time to smell the coffees because hubby is the coffee drinker in the house. So smelling we go and we ran across a banana smelling coffee and hazelnut I believe, but this one… Toasted Almond Cream stopped us.

The name was the name of a drink that I used to get when I was much younger and would go out to lunch with my mommy and my other mother (Toasted Almond). I had a quick flash back of all the good times we had at the restaurant and how the smell alone would send me off to a place where palm trees swayed and blue rolling water would gently touch my feet….Ahhhh.

He smelled it and he mentioned that it does smell good and I wonder if it tastes as good as it smells.

Hubby let it sit for a couple of hours on Sunday after we got back and then while completing the dreaded returning of work emails, he chose to open the bag of coffee. He made himself a pot and the smell went all through the house and it almost made me want to get a cup. He is what I would call a true coffee drinker and that is one who does not put anything and I mean nothing in his coffee, so that is why he is the perfect taste tester.

The Verdict:

The aroma wasn’t as strong as he would like it to be. He expected a bigger flavor, but said it had a nice mild taste. Overall, he was not impressed, but said it was definitely worth the $3.99 for the 12 oz package.

What is the best tasting coffee that you have had and how do you dress it, if at all?

God Bless!!!
