About Angelino's
Angelino’s Coffee is a family owned and operated company which sources beans direct from producers in exotic locations, roasts them in house and packages the pods themselves. Controlling each part of the production process means that Angelino’s always ships fresh coffee and has the ability to create new flavors and special editions on a regular basis and get them straight into customers hands.
Kirk, the founder of Angelino’s comes from a family with a long history of Coffee growing, production and manufacture. Learning from his father and travelling the world with him to exotic locations such as Costa Rica, Venezuala and Brazil, Kirk was inspired to bring the rich, new flavors back to the United States and improve the quality of coffee he saw on the market.
Roasting, Packing and Shipping all happens in Los Angeles and is overseen by Kirk’s family to ensure the freshest new flavors and newest roasts get to their customers fresh, ready to drink.
Ordering Process
The Angelino’s website is simple, modern and functional but the real power of the way their process works is the power it gives you to pick and choose the flavors you want, select a sampler pack to see what you like and the more you order, the cheaper each cup becomes.
The ordering process is quite simple and involves only 4 steps:
- Choose Nespresso or Keurig to match your machine
- Decide how many cups you want 48, 96 or 192 cups
- Mix or match the flavors you want to fill your box
- Checkout and get ready to try your new coffee
The real power of Angelino’s kicks in after your first order as they have built out a very powerful subscription management system which gives you total control of the way you purchase coffee forever more.
Their system lets you choose a once-off delivery, auto-deliverieson the schedule you prefer and even lets you give somebody else a gift subscription as a present to let them try the coffee also.
I’ve personally set-up my own subscription to deliver me a 96 pack of coffee once per month as that gives us all the coffee we need for our daily lives and spare in case friends drop over.
Coffee Flavor & variety
Angelino’s has over 30 different flavors of coffee available at any given time and special editions which launch frequently. I ordered a variety pack the first time I purchased which came with 24 K-Cups filled with medium, dark and decaf flavors, some of the standout flavors were Jamaican Me Crazy, French Vanilla and Caramel Creme. The pack came with coffee sourced from Guatemela, Nicaragua, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Indonesia and more.
The thing which struck me most about the Coffee from Angelino’s was how fresh it tasted compared to the regular K-Cups I had been testing from other brewers. I could tell the coffee was fresh and had been roasted recently because it was so refreshing and clean.
The variety was quite amazing, with some pods having an intense fruity flavor, others filled with dark, spicy and bold flavours like Rum, Cinnamon and other exotic scents. The range tastes nothing like the regular coffee pods on the market. I also tested out their special edition Pumpkin Spice sourced from Peru and the cinnamo, nutmeg, clove and ginger combination was gorgeous and so easy to drink.
Angelino’s also makes a variety of tea flavors so you can get bold, properly brewed tea from your Nespresso and Keurig machines along with your coffee. My favourites were the Peppermint which had a refreshing, crisp taste without being bitter and the sweet yet subtle English Breakfast brew.
Delivery & Experience
I ordered my pack on a Tuesday afternoon and had my nicely packed box of coffee delivered to me on Friday morning. The packaging was fun, modern and easy to understand. Opening the box reminded me of the apple experience when you unbox a new iPhone, because it was professional and you could tell it had been packed with care. Unlike other boxes I’ve tested which turn up damaged and broken!
They included some company information, an explanation about the history of the company and everything else I needed to know to understand more and be connected with the business. Instead of a faceless corporation, I felt like I knew the founder and his family.
Final Thoughts
We tested both the Keurig and Nespresso pods and we loved them both equally. The selection of flavors, boldness of the roasting and freshness of the taste was like nothing else we have had outside of some of the best Cafe’s in the world. I didn’t feel like i was sacrifcing anything and at only $0.39 per cup, it blew me away.
I recommend setting up a subscription so you can be sure your coffee is always fresh and delivered right after roasting each and every month. Not sitting around on the shelf for months at a time.
The first time you order from Angelino’s, you should try the experience pack to get a taste of the different flavors and step outside your comfort zone a little bit. Some of my favourite flavors are the ones I never imagined I would like, so just give it a shot and enjoy :)
