Jose L. Piedra Cremas Review (Cigars)

Another cheap Cuban





This cigar was ugly. It had an caramel colored wrapper that barely stayed together at times. The price is right though. I dry boxed it for two days (forgot about it). It started off mild/med and turned to a strong tobacco flavor with an med/full ending.


Notes: Mild Tobacco, Bitterness, Harshness, Hidden Vanilla, Slight Creaminess, Black Pepper, Savory Tobacco

Rated 8/10

Target's Archer Farms Fair Trade Organic Guatemalan Whole Bean Review (Coffee)


I liked this coffee



I have really enjoyed all the whole bean coffee's I've got from Target so far. As I said before though not the biggest fan of Target. This coffee is really not my favorite though. It's kinda more bold and a tad spicy more than I like coffee to be. If it was on sale I would get it again.

Notes: Floral at times, Chocolatey at times, Acidy at times, bold

Rated 7.5/10

P.S (Sorry the reviews have been coming out so slow. Life's a bit busy right now)

GEVALIA KAFFE Traditional Roast Whole Bean Review (Coffee)



We have all seen the commercials I'm sure at this point. My mind got the best of me on this one.



I was at a Walmart at 3am trying to decide if this or Sam's Choice breakfast blend. I went with this sadly. I have so far french pressed this and auto dripped it and both ways were dissapointing to say the least. I will say this coffee is smooth but, I think if I brewed dog shit it may be smooth also. It has a classic coffee flavor but not much else to it. Your better off with dunkin or starbucks. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of either of those brands. I will try it again to see if I can get something decent out of this coffee.

Note: after writing this review I had some domain issues so I allowed it to be saved as a draft. I went back to the bag of coffee to see give it another chance. What I found was shocking. A damn stone inside the bag at first I thought it was an undercooked bean. Which of course I wanted to take a look at it and smell it only to find out its an stone. 

Here's the picture (I wonder what would have happened to my poor grinder)

Eight O'Clock French Roast Whole Bean Review (Coffee)


I was looking for something that was low priced and decent. This is kinda that coffee.



To me this is what I like to call a "Good wake coffee" meaning when your at a wake and not really thinking about the coffee but its decent enough to drink. I coudln't drink it everyday but, when I'm broke and I want some caffine this mostly does the trick.
