Cru Kafe Coffee Pods Review

We were recently sent some Cru Kafe Flat White Nespresso Compatible Organic Coffee Capsules to try, they arrived in gorgeous black packaging, looking sleek and inviting.

On opening the bag you could smell the coffee, I popped one straight into the machine and I was presented with a dark earthy smelling coffee, the taste of which is really lovely.

My husband, who loves his coffee used the words ‘ I think this may be the best one we’ve tried’ referring to several of the different capsules available including Nespresso which means this is high praise indeed.

I have really enjoyed the coffee in iced coffee and as a flat white first thing in the morning, my husband being more of an espresso drinker has enjoyed the coffee on it’s own although it does suggest it is better as a flat white.

The great thing about Cru Kafe is that you can order a monthly subscription delivered to your door, which means you don't have to worry about running low as new ones will regularly arrive.

The capsules are recyclable and the packet a bit less bulky than some of the others in boxes currently available, there is also less packaging than some of the others available on the market.

The coffee is great but my only grumble is the price, it is a little on the high side compared to others with a capsule including delivery being 40p-46p if you buy just one offs or 37p-41p if you have a monthly subscription. However it is organic so you are getting something rarely available from other coffee makers and suppliers.

As these are from a smaller independent company and this is wonderful tasting coffee, it might be something we buy on occasion, as a gift to ourselves, but not something we'd buy regularly.

NB: We were sent a packet of Cru Kafe capsules for the purpose of this review, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
