[spoiler title=’Click here to read the transcript. ‘ style=’default’ collapse_link=’true’]- Hey, welcome to Coffee Coffee Coffee, your place for average Joe coffee reviews. Today’s coffee is black silk, I don’t know about that.
– Okay, so today we are reviewing Folgers Black Silk coffee, so it’s a dark roast.
– Black silk, and something something something.
– Talkin about black velvet?
– Yeah. I don’t know the words to that either.
– Tanya Tucker, right? Anyway, it’s a really good song.
– I never saw her reality show. I’m pretty sure she had a reality show.
– I missed that one. Okay, well anyway, it’s a 10.3 oz container canister thing, you have to be careful with the Folgers, because they do different, weird kind of weights and stuff.
– You might miss out on a few point ounces.
– Still, cheap coffee right? It’s like $5 a pound, this thing was like
– $3.73 It was recommended to us by our viewer Erin Lyles.
– Her husband likes this one, right?
– Yeah, he swears by it, I think is what she said, and then she said “eh, it’s okay”. She’s a Caribou fan.
– We are big Caribou fans, and we are not big Folgers fans anymore. We used to be back in the day, but this one we’re like
– Back before we knew.
– What really good coffee was. But we wanted to try it with an open mind, so let’s try it.
– You know what they say, though? Don’t be so open-minded that your brains fall out.
– That is true, they do say that. So
– A needle pulling thread.
– This coffee is actually pretty good.
– Yeah, we were surprised.
– Yeah, surprised. Pleasantly surprised.
– And it’s not just to appease your husband, Erin.
– No, we don’t do that. We don’t kowtow. But this is good, it’s like roasty, it’s not offensive at all, it’s smooth. Yeah, there’s not as much flavor there as I would want.
– I wouldn’t go out of my way to get it. It’s not like a “you really gotta try this” coffee. It’s “if you have it, it’s good”.
– That, okay, yeah, I’ll have a cup.
– And we tried not to let the name Folgers ruin our
– Yeah, we try not to be like snobbish, ever. Or overly enthusiastic.
– Fanboy.
– Yeah, we try not to fanboy, or fangirl.
– And that’s why we’ve said there’s Caribou that we don’t like. One at least, so far. And now, Folgers that we do care for. But overall, I think probably we’re looking at maybe three, three and a half. Because of the price.
– Yeah, the price is what bumps it up another probably like half star, from what it would be if it was more expensive.
– But it’s not one of those ones we go out of our way to get, but it’s one where you’re saying “hey, there it is, let’s get it”. Like maybe you have to get your coffee from a convenience store.
– We did not rehearse that.
– Get out of my head. Uh, and they have a couple of kinds, this Black Silk is one you could go for, in our opinion
– Yeah, I think so.
– Yeah, I think we’ve covered all of that there. Well, if you’ve tried this Folgers or another Folgers, or any other coffee that you’d like for us to try, let us know what it is, where we can get it, if it’s like an odd one. Like maybe they carry it at your grocery store, but it’s not everywhere, but you can get it online, then we’d like to try it, see what we think about it, and then let you know. Thanks for joining us for this review, and until next time,
– Keep grinding.
