Baileys

When I first bought my coffee taster pack from Nifty Goods (@niftygoods), this was the one option I was super excited to try - The Bailey's Irish Cream! Yes, that's the cream liqueur, whose primary ingredients are cream, cocoa and Irish whiskey!

When brewed, this coffee gave off a super fragrant aroma that is mocha and vanilla like, with subtle liquor notes. The coffee itself is primarily bitter and acidic, though surprisingly, both these tastes were more reminiscent of that of alcohol rather than coffee. The drink even finishes with a slight burn that's very alcohol-like.

This coffee seems to serve a very similar role to Nespresso's Barista Creations line - Flavored drinks that bring about a new dimension of flavor, but also one that may not stand very well on its own without milk or sugar. 3.5/5 - I'm eager to buy more of this flavor to test it out with milk and sugar to create what I'm sure will be a delicious beverage.

I'm always intrigued at how coffee and alcohol mixes, so I was very interested to see how the Bailey's Irish Cream Mocha version would work - You might remember ages ago when I tried the Bailey's Original Irish Cream pod, awarding it 3.5/5.

The primary flavor of this pod is still the prominent alcoholic tang, which I've also noted in the original pod. There is a vaguely chocolatey and vanilla scent, though the latter is significantly more detectable than the former. I remember describing the original pod as somewhat chocolatey as well, so all in all, I'm really not too sure what the differences between these two pods really are.

Overall - 3.5/5. It's nice, but I'm struggling to find differences between this and the original pod.
