Subject: reviews of some European coffees


Just my two cents on some European coffees I've tried while in Europe.
These are all supermarket coffees, prepared with a cone and filter.

Maison du Cafe, 0.5 kg for 1.50 euros:
OK, but missing something. Flavor is all right. More caffeine than
most, very addictive. I threw it half of out in the end.

Segefreddo Intermezzo, 0.5 kg for 1.70 euros.
Good, rather similar to some Starbucks, in that it is somewhat
over-burnt. You taste the burnt and wonder, where's the coffee flavor?

Lavazza Mattino, 0.5 kg for 1.50 euros.
The best I've had here. Not perfect, but enjoyable. It has a
chemical aftertaste.

So, there you are. I'm not a coffee expert when it comes to reporting
on nutty versus woody versus whatever.
