Even when you open the test package was a glorious smell of coffee to me. My living room had a pleasant smell of coffee, the desire only began immediate Try.
But first of all packaging. The packaging of each variety are very well done by off. They look very well and certainly a fall on the shelves in the eye. That it is of Melitta Coffee is quick and easy to recognize. On the front of all three packs of coffee beans are displayed. In order to recognize the differences between the three varieties, different colors have been used at the top. So is yellow for Mild Roast, Medium Roast for Orange and violet for Dark Roast.
Each variety is described on the back and there is a recommendation that grinding stage one should choose it.
Each package also includes a "aroma valve". Through this air can escape from the package and you can taste good while squeezing it. It also prevents oxygen comes off. So the coffee aroma is optimally protected.
But now to the individual varieties:
MILD ROAST:
For My Cafe Mild Roast he chooses coffee from Latin America, East Africa and Asia-Pacific and toasting this only so long until they take a gentle color. Because then unfolds its balanced character and fine fruity notes come to light.
He should be harmonious and balanced and a fine-fruity own. Although I would not necessarily say that it tastes fruity, my mild variant liked most. As a recommendation of Melitta, the freeness is roughly recommended. I can make this just to vote. The coffee tastes mild, full-bodied and tasty. Unlike many other coffee this does not taste bitter. I did not how else to add extra milk or sugar. Even with my friends this variety arrived best.
The beans in the package are light brown in color and fairly evenly. Broken beans were not available.
MEDIUM ROAST:
For My Cafe Medium Roast he chooses coffee from Latin America and AsiaPazifik and roast them until they take on a tired brown color. Because then unfolds her velvety character and nutty notes come to light.
He should be full-bodied and silky smooth & possess "nutty hints. The perfect freeness of this variety is fine. Even this tastes very good and full-bodied. And yes a little nutty flavor can also be seen. Otherwise, it is not as mild as the Mild Roast, but not too strong. He also does not taste bitter, maybe just a little sour, yet velvety smooth and balanced. In any case, it is easy to digest and ideal for the coffee table at a family celebration. These species could fully convince ago especially among the younger, female guests and colleagues.

He is supposed to be full of character and intense and have hints of dark chocolate
The Dark Roast Espresso has almost character. If you drink it, you can taste the good out chocolaty aroma black. He is very not bitter, but also full-bodied. However, it tastes too intense for me and is me personally too. The men, however, the testing were were impressed by this variety. Especially the Morgenmuffel use it to perk up or prevent energy slumps.
Conclusion: Each variety has its own character, is certainly loyal following. I personally tasted the milder variants best. But that's a matter of taste. But the fact is that the coffee during brewing exudes a scent that is simply gorgeous and seduced to drink coffee a.
