I wasn’t sure what to expect, but these roasted coffee candies honestly reminds me of what a good cup of Tim Hortons coffee used to taste like before things changed. They’ve got that smooth, slightly toasty coffee flavour that’s not too bitter or overly sweet, which I really enjoy. I’ve even found myself having one while drinking my morning coffee because it adds a deeper coffee note, kind of enhancing the whole experience. It’s like getting an extra sip of the flavour I want without needing a second cup. They’re individually wrapped too, so easy to keep on hand. A nice classic coffee taste that hits the right spot.
These are hard, black coffee tasting candies. They last about 5 minutes if you can resist biting them. Nice that they are individually wrapped. They are a nice change from caramel or peppermint flavours.
I don't know what all the other reviewers got, I read they are all saying these taste great, but myself, my son and his girlfriend all tried these, we all like coffee and I drink instant mostly, these have no coffee flavor. Well maybe the slightest hint at first, but then they taste bland and a little sweet. Not even as much coffee flavor as a coffee crisp chocolate bar has. My son said they taste like cardboard with sugar. I agree. I would not buy these again.
So I have to say I finished these. They are like instant coffee hard candies. If you like that sort of flavour you'll love these.
These candies are sweeter than other coffee candies I’ve tried in the past. The flavor is smooth and mellow. I personally would have preferred a bit more bitterness or a deeper roast flavor. Still, they’re tasty in their own way and I do enjoy having them.Likes:- Sweet, smooth flavor.- Individually wrapped- Good as a quick snack.Dislikes:- Not very strong in coffee flavor.- Preferably, more bitterness or roast depth would be nice.
