Review: Mastro Lorenzo Coffee Crema Intenso T Discs for Tassimo

Review from Single Serve Coffee.com - Coffee Pod Reviews

It's been longer than we've wanted to get some Tassimo reviews out the door. We've been drinking a fair amount of the new Tassimo offerings TassimoDirect.com has brought in from it's European counterparts, and we've really been waiting for the Starbucks Tassimo T Discs that will hopefully arrive in the next 2-3 weeks. So far the Mastro Lorenzo Coffee Crema Intenso T Discs for Tassimo aren't available on TassimoDirect.com (you can see them on the UK Tassimo site), but should be available soon. You can find them however on Ebay and other auction sites that will ship you T Discs from oversees.

Update: Maestro Lorenzo Crema Intenso is available through www.tassimodirect.com/crema to Tassimo customers through its Direct Delivery service.

The Mastro Lorenzo Coffee Crema Intenso T Discs for Tassimo are not as rich and spicy as claimed. The frothy layer of crema is interesting, but the mouth feel is more bubbly than rich and thick. We think the taste is more of a morning coffee blend, and we liked this coffee over other cafe crema coffees Tassimo has offered.

Aroma - 8 - has a rich nose
Acidity - 7 - a bit of acid fighting with the coffee
Body - 7 - could be fuller given the name
Flavor - 8 - good and perks up a bit with a little sugar
Mouth Feel - 7 - we'd like this to be fuller, yet the light feel is better for lighter coffee drinkers
Coffee Drinker - Light to medium and you'd better like that arabica bite

Overall Rating: 80 - Average

Available on Ebay and soon TassimoDirect.com. These T Discs will work in your TA1400 and TA1200 Tassimo hot beverage systems.

Just so you know, Tassimo just released an email today announcing the Starbucks T-Disks, and is offering 4 packs for the price of 3. Order Breakfast, House, and Verona, get Kitamu free.

I love my Tassimo, but since I just went on a diet. I would like to find out how many carbs and calories the Gevalia Signature Crema contains. Does any one know?
