    I've unfortunately not had very good luck with Pod & Parcel pods - Maybe I've got a box of duds? I'm really not sure, and I'm tempted to revisit this brand to see if that's really the case.

    Either way, we're looking at the Fasoli today, which again, has that ashy, earthy flavor that I'm not a fan of. There's also a plum-like acidity here, which is rather off-putting and unpleasant. There are some hints of sweetness, but there is also a rather strong bitterness in the aftertaste. Unfortunately, the "plumminess" is really quite overwhelming - 1.5/5.

    The Fasoli pod is marketed by its manufacturer as a pod with an intensity of 8/13, with tasting notes of plum, berries and caramel - So I wasn't wrong with the plummy notes at least! This coffee is a blend of Arabicas and can be taken with milk or on its own.

More Details

Roast Level: Medium Dark
Medium-dark or Vienna roast coffee features a deeper, richer flavor profile due to its longer roasting time. When selecting a Vienna roast, look for a lower acidity, bolder body, and flavors with dark chocolate, caramel, toasted nut notes, and mild smokiness.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema—the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
