Nespresso Rich Chocolate & Roasted Hazelnut Taste Test & Review
Your cat is so cute
Omg your hair is so frickin cute lillee
I❤the caramel nespresso pods they are so yummy delicious
Is it bitter or strong
I think it was more strong than overtly bitter!
@@lilizzy428 gotcha okay
What does that one taste like
I think dharkan tasted more cocoa-like and the ristretto intenso was more earthy/woody :)
@@lilizzy428 nice
They have a nespresso store no way?! Get out of here
@@IcedCoffeeLover33 yes they did! I will say the pods were definitely less expensive there than here, so I’m excited that I got some before leaving lol!
@@lilizzy428 that was so awesome to see that
I’ve been to italy it was so much fun there coffee was so yummy Thank you sharing this wonderful video lillee
@@IcedCoffeeLover33 yes the coffee was SO yummy! Hopefully I’ll be able to go back one day and take some more extensive footage haha😂❤️
@@lilizzy428 hopefully yeah
Italy is my favorite place!
@@juliedoiron632 I can see why! It was so beautiful - I’m hoping I can go back and see the coast some day!❤️
Are they strong
@@IcedCoffeeLover33 both weren’t as strong as I was expecting based on the intensity scale rating they had on the box, but they were definitely both packing some intensity that was still palatable when drinking on it’s own!
@@lilizzy428 wow thats amazing
What do those taste like lillee
@@IcedCoffeeLover33 the Verona pod is a little chocolatey which I liked! The Italian roast was roasty but overall pretty balanced :)
@@lilizzy428 thats good
Thank you so much for this video! Very helpful and you are so inspirational.
@@mackenzienicole5925 awww thank you so much! 🥰 your kind words made my day today!❤️
That looks so yummy
@@IcedCoffeeLover33 awww thank you!❤️ I love the cardamom syrup from PinkHouse Alchemy!!
@@lilizzy428 thats good Your welcome
Good review ☕️
@@coolerbeer86 thank you so much! Glad I could share it with ya’ll :)
Absolutely baller! Congrats! I am applying right now(: hope to be on your level haha
@@musicmediaoutlets123 Awww congrats to YOU! You’re gonna do amazing this cycle!!😁
all starbucks pods taste awful:(
@@lenaanimitsa1723 Starbucks pods aren’t my favorite haha but I do really enjoy their blonde roast as a staple! Unfortunately any espresso that is ground and packaged that far in advance of the consumer getting them is not going to be the best cup of coffee I’ve ever had, but it certainly makes enjoying coffee from home a bit more attainable, which I’m all for!
ngl that matcha is such a dull green colour it must be such a low grade :( shame because the pod idea is so cool
@@daisybaldwin2636 I’m so glad you said it cause someone had to lol - I thought the same when I brewed it 🥲 it was a great idea in theory but just not the best executed!
you are one my favorite youtubers ever everytime i watch your videos very entertaining
Awww your comment made my day!😭❤️ I try! I just enjoy sharing the content with yall!

Love your videos I have learned a lot about coffee watching your videos great inputs.🐞👍🌷
Awww thank you so much!!🥰
thats so awesome
Soo exciting! I did Pre Med,.. graduated with a BS in Biology and PSY,... took my MCATS and chose the path of becoming a Psychotherapist and the world of counseling. I simply love where I am career and life wise but as a previous bio buff,... following your journey is soo amazing and interesting to me! So excited for you and all your hard work! Thank you for sharing so openly!
Your kind words made my day, and thank you for sharing your journey as well. Where I come from, the work you do is so selfless, yet extremely important! ❤️ Needless to say, keep up the amazing and inspiring work!
In Quebec maple syrup is in the early spring.
You guys are so smart - I would have had NO idea that that was the reason 😅😂 thank you!!
where r u going?
I’m looking forward to sharing what places I got accepted to v. rejected at and details of where I committed in a video very soon! ❤️
Congratulations!
Awww thank you so much!❤️ it was definitely a whirlwind and I’m excited to start this new chapter 🥰
How much and how to order?
Same girl same. I’m 4’11. And my parents are 5’7 and 6’0. It’s a cruel world 😆😆
Yeah idk why I ended up so short cause everyone else in my family is pretty normal sized 🤣
What do you prefer. Iced or hot coffee?
I’m definitely an iced coffee gal even in the winter haha!😂
These pods are so fun! I hope we get them in the US. I’m excited to see the video of your coffee in Italy.
I hope we get them here too!🤩 and yes! I’m excited to hopefully share some snips from my travels haha😂
I definitely regret getting this pod. I don't recommend 'if' you don't like almond extract. I like almond croissants, almond milk, and almonds, but I'm not able to get into this pod. Maybe if I had vanilla or almond syrup but I don't. I probably need to just avoid flavored pods so I can flavor each cup to taste and mood 🤷🏾♀️.
I COMPLETELY understand - I initially thought this pod’s almondy extract flavor would die down with other syrups, but it is VERY prominent even when I pair with creamier milks/syrups!
@@lilizzy428 I tried this pod today with Torani Shortbread and that syrup successfully toned down the almond extract flavor for me 😊. Do you have a preference in the unflavored double espresso: dolce/chiaro/scuro?
@@limitlessreviews1 ooooohhh that sounds SO good! I should get that syrup after my move!🤩
@@limitlessreviews1 I really dolce because it’s sweeter/creamier imo, but I have no qualms with any of those three and regularly buy all of them 🙌🏼❤️
Thank you for the great video! I love coffee tasting!
I’m so glad I got to try it for you guys! 🤩
that looks yummy
It always froths milk so nicely! Definitely very fluffy haha
@@lilizzy428 awesome
that thing is so cool
It’s a great little investment honestly! I have a handheld one too but prefer this one over it by far
@@lilizzy428 thats good
i❤those espresso cups
Awww thank you! ❤️
@@lilizzy428 your welcome
those are so cool i never seen such a thing like this
I know!! I was so excited to try them when I got back haha - fingers crossed they get released in the US at some point!
@@lilizzy428 what did it taste like
@@IcedCoffeeLover33 Sicilia in the espresso version was my fave - it wad intense and had that creamy, dark chocolate-like bitterness. Really good! Emilia was slightly intense but more wheaty, and Aosta was more acidic and slightly more fruity. :)
@@lilizzy428 thats good
Oh my gosh! I LOVE mine! I made my son and his fiancé lattes and they said it reminded them of Italy! They had just been there a few months before. Pro tip: I froth the milk first. I have my coffee cup there full of hot water. To preheat the cup firstly, but I also use it to clean the steam wand instead of letting it spray into the bottom thing, it sprays into the hot water in the cup. I think it get's it much cleaner this way. Then I wipe the wand with a wet cloth. Simply dump out the cup, give it a quick rinse, then make the espresso with same cup. So much easier imo. I had been wanting one for a long time but the cost! I got mine for under $300 from Bed Bath & Beyond during a very good sale and of course their wonderful 20% off plus I was a member and got even more off. I lucked out that time. I had also been looking on Marketplace. If you're patient and keep looking for that deal, you'll find it. It's a wonderful machine and of course Nespresso has some great coffees. The drinks I make with this machine are so much better than if I were doing all the work with a regular espresso maker. Of course for some, that is the point and they love the whole process. I do not! 🍮
Oooo I LOVE that you mentioned that trick with the cup! I need to try that - TJ’s been getting more and more into hot cappuccinos, so this machine has been working overtime and I’ll have to use your hack to purge the steam wand haha!😁
I also really like this machine and don’t see myself replacing it anytime soon! It’s just so nice and convenient, especially if you can find a good deal :)
Bought this by accident and love it
So glad you like it 😁 Haha what a happy accident then!!
U get 30 pods per pound of whole beans but filling them and hard packing u get 27. Its worth it. Took 20 minutes
Amazing thank you for calculating this haha!!
For the love of all humanity please listen! The world almost ended because i did not get this right and lucky for you all i had spare ones until i can fix this issue. I refilled 30 of them and unlike me i didnt teat them prior to doing all of them. You must get dark roasted and finer and fill the pod up and pack it down well. Once sealed if you hear it moving ur coffee is gonna be weak and will frustrate you
Thank you for this! Yes depending on the pod you’re filling you need to use espresso ground/finely ground coffee and tamp it very well to get a strong espresso-like brew. It’s not perfect ofc, but it should come out of the pod like a packed espresso puck on a semi-automatic machine!
I have one of those kits. I don’t use it very often because my machine tends to be louder when I use “homemade” pods. So I don’t use them very often.
Yeah I noticed that with mine too! I also notice the pod gets SO much hotter upon taking it out from the machine than pods usually do lol👀
@@lilizzy428 I got scared cuz my warrenty is up lol. So I only do it once in a while… but they gonna be losing customers if they keep jacking up the price lol
I can tell you your opinion of the frosted caramel nut is the opinion of 100% of the nespresso UA-camrs I’ve watched. They were all So excited for that pod and then, they tried it, and most of them are like it’s good but I don’t get the biscuits notes, or the almond etc.
Yeah I had SUCH great expectations for it cause it sounded so yummy lol - it was fine I just don’t think I would buy it again this holiday season if they offered it!
So, it kind of sounds like Jordan's Skinny Syrups have an unappealing aftertaste in general. I'm new at this and dont want to have a bunch of bottles lying around that I cant use. What brand has little or no aftertaste?
I’ll admit that I really like some of the basic JSS ones (vanilla, hazelnut, white chocolate, salted caramel, and caramel)! I also really like most of Torani’s sugar free syrups, as well as Monin’s. I haven’t tried all of their SF ones, but I think both brands’ aftertastes are fairly mild, especially when paired with creamier milks. I haven’t tried any other SF brands that I know of outside of those, unfortunately. I’m happy to go into detail on certain syrup flavors if you’re wondering about them!! :)
I could smell the maple as it was brewing more than taste it. I couldn’t taste it at all, but I definitely could smell it.
Yes I find that caramel and maple flavors are quite faint and I often can’t make them out in flavored coffees!!🥲
I love this brewed over ice with cold foam made from whole milk. Freshly grated cinnamon on top. YUMMY.
OOOHHH that sounds SO yummy!! I actually just tried it a few days ago as an americano with cinnamon and it was delicious - I need to try it with cold foam next!!😋❤️
