Review on Tazza d'Oro Blanco

Image
Tazza D'oro Blanco Coffee Express Israel - Tazza d'Oro Blanco Ho.re.ca Tazza de Oro blends of thick coffee rich of aroma coming from African, Asiatic and South American plantations. Tazza de Oro is a highly ranked brand,for its selection and price, this we already know. The 1 Kg bags lay on the top-shelves in the Shop, in the shop where I  go Coffee- Shopping once a month to get myself some "fresh" coffee. Those bags are on the top-shelves lurking at me, you can't have me, I 'm too expensive... Since it costs a little bit more, I prefer not to buy them. When I go I take a look at it, and usually go home with a different brand. This time i said "It will be mine!" :) just HAD to find out why the price is so high, and I think I did. Verdict: Tazza d'Oro brand stands behind its word! Well, Tazza d'Oro Blanco Horeca is a real DELICE!! I highly recommend to try it out, its a quality product, and has a dominant strong  body and taste. ...

Ascaso Dream vs. Francis Francis - Espresso Retro Design

We were hesitant about which coffee/espresso machine to purchase to fit into our redecorated home. The final decision had to be between: Ascaso Dream for ground coffee or pods preparation in a nice Red color; OR the Francis Francis x7 model for capsules only. Both designs are appealing - Retro style, which we definitely digg! Took us time to understand what the difference is between pods and capsules , we researched what type of coffee we'd get out of them. I like strong espresso with loads of good crema and a bitter after-taste in my mouth. The final decision has been made, we went with the Ascaso Dream . For various reasons: Ascaso Dream is versatile; meaning that it can be used either with pods from all E.S.E (easy serving espresso) label, OR with (freshly) ground coffee. Its also quite simple to use and the Dream will not rust thanks to the aluminum body. To ground the coffee-beans we also purchased the assorted I-mini grinder with conical burr. So, here we are now, enjo...

Love Segafredo Buono coffee

Image
For some reason when i took it of the shelve in the shop, i didn't have special expectations.. I just wanted to make a change in my habbits of coffee-drinking. It is only when I took a sip of my cup of espresso that i enjoyed it soo very much. It's like when you go to a movie without knowing much about it, and expecting very little of it, that the surprise of it being a GOOD movie, receives its effect; in other words: WOW! So we're talking about Buono from Segafredo . Its a bit sweet (i've always been a sweet-tooth) and its delicious! It also gave me a pleasant coffeine effect for the wake-up. So yes, i do recommend it, it became my new favorite, since I like the fact that i can change my coffee choice once in a while, it might change, although it is definitely a keeper, very defenitely! I bought it at Coffee Express Israel, http://www.coffee-express.co.il/Products/257--segafredo-espresso-buono.aspx Segafredo Espresso Buono Please if anyone tries it and wants to discus...
