Coffee Break with Starbucks VIA

[sealsbowhunter]

I prefer the Italian to the Columbia. I dunno if you're into ice coffee or not, but Starbucks just released a new via specifically for use as ice coffee. I snagged a few sample packs for when I go on kayaking or hiking tricks. I appreciate the vids

[sealsbowhunter]

I work at a Starbucks and would highly reommend the VIA as an on-the-go or easy outdoors option

[CampfireTalk]

@sealsbowhunter I'm with you brother, it surprised me on how rich it tasted. In this video it was the first time I ever tried VIA & I laughed at my reaction when I edited this video. Thanks for the comment

[Mahalalel3]

Going to try this just because it looked so enjoyable.You should be in advertising. I roast my own but I have just got to try this quick fast coffee

[CampfireTalk]

@Mahalalel3 Nice complement, but I think I would be the worlds WORST salesman :)

The VIA is a great "on the go" option. I wish I had some yesterday. I was at a gas station & had the worst watered down mess ever. Not even fit to be called coffee. Let me know what you think, it's always great getting feedback from what others think. Take care

[Mahalalel3]

@CampfireTalk Matter of fact I bought some tonight and it is as good as you described. Great coffee for on the go and camping. Drinking it rather late but coffee doesn't seem to bother me even at a late hour.

[FixedByDoc]

nice video. 5/5

[Ggreenvideos]

Never tried Starbucks, but I'll give it a shot :o)

[CampfireTalk]

@Ggreenvideos I just got back from a backpacking trip & had some of the starbucks on the trail, it's a nice luxury to have.

[tcbink]

If I wanted coffee that tastes like espresso I would buy espresso. Hate Starbucks.

[CampfireTalk]

Thanks for sharing your opinion, always good to hear both likes & dislikes

[medicjimr]

I have been doing the tasters choice columbian not bad and allot cheaper . No offense I just never liked paying starbucks prices

[Ggreenvideos]

@medicjimr Hey buddy, I Do the Tasters Choice Columbian instant too ! Tastes grrrrreat :o) Trying out a couple different filters now though :o)

[CampfireTalk]

@medicjimr No offense taken at all, it's good to hear what other guys like & you're right it is cheaper. I'll give it a taste test.

[rachelewilson516]

I love it bro! You are dearly missed.

[CampfireTalk]

Thanks brother, awesome to see you on here.

[RemMan700]

Alright I bought some VIA. I got the Columbian and the Italian roast. Both are very good but I prefer the Italian roast since it has a bolder flavor.

[CampfireTalk]

Good work! I'll have to give the Italian roast a try now.

[octos2000]

Great review sir. I agree that the VIA instant is not grandmas instant coffee, although I never really had much complaint about freeze dried instant coffee. I was always big on campfire coffee with the grounds in the water and when its done pour it through a cheesecloth. The smell of coffee on a camping trip is OUTSTANDING!

OCTOS.......................ou­t.

[CampfireTalk]

I hear you on the cowboy way of making coffee. There is that nostalgic feeling you get from brewing coffee over the fire.

Good hearing from you Octos, it's been awhile :)

Campfire................out

[RemMan700]

I guess I am going to have to go pick a box up. How much is a box of Via?

[CampfireTalk]

A box of 12 packets will run you $10-12 bucks. I think that's abit pricy, but after trying it I would pay that because of the great taste.

[MadBadVoodo]

I have not had coffie in over two years and man do I miss it!! But I had 2 give it up... :(

★★★★★

[CampfireTalk]

Sorry to hear, I think I started drinking about 2 years ago.

Always good to see a comment from the big bad MBV! take care

[hinckleypoland]

Looks like good stuff. Will have to pics some up and give it a whirl on my next grocery trip. 5/5

[CampfireTalk]

hey Vista, I read that same issue. It was another reason I thought I need to see if it really is that good.

Thanks for watching

[etasisiestano]

No better feeling when in the outdoors to have a hot cup of coffee or chocolate accompanied by sweet croissants,or pastries(anything with calories)

Great video.

BTW, what brand is the fleece/sweater you´re wearing? we wear ones like that too..

[CampfireTalk]

I agree, warm food & drinks taste better outside.

The fleece is REI brand. I've been wearing it for a year & it has held up great.

Thanks for watching

[mrsdjsdj]

I have that same fleece, too. $40 bucks is a great deal I think. Been wearing it all winter with my down vest.

[etasisiestano]

Yeah I´m sure it has, these clothes are made for hiking,etc. They are very comfortable,warm, and casual-stylish

[USNERDOC]

Did I see a Girl Scout Thin Mint cookie?!!

Cool.

[HawkLMT]

That is THE best cookie the Girls Scouts offer!!!

How much better can a day get drinkin' coffee out of a snowman head cup and eatin' Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies!!!

[CampfireTalk]

Hawk, not much better my friend :)

[CampfireTalk]

You caught me red handed :)

the mint mixed with the coffee was brilliant!

[USNERDOC]

I am a "cookie monster" according to the kids and my wife. Those thin mints are awesome right out of the freezer . . . but then I digress!

[USNERDOC]

Very cool video my friend! I like your style. Great coffee cup ;-)

I got some Starbucks VIA the last time I was in the store . . . having similar thoughts. Very neat to see such a favorable review from a respected YT friend. 5/5

[CampfireTalk]

The snowman coffee cup had been neglected in the back of the cabinet. Finding it back there was like finding solid gold!

Thanks Doc, I always appreciate your comments.

[rbcarnut]

Okay James... You and John better quit bickering or we'll have to separate the two of you :( LOL! I'm gonna have to pick me up some o' that!

Rob

[Tacticalgearhead]

Hey, who are you calling strange? You're the one drinking instant coffee from a snow man cup! LOL

[CampfireTalk]

I thought you'd be all about my snowman mug :)

It's also great for drinking old scotch out of.

[Cr0cket20]

Don't know why, buy you kind of reminded me of Les Stroud at the end. For a minute there, I thought I smelled the coffee.5*

[CampfireTalk]

Wish I had Les' money :) borrowing your line there :)

always good to hear from you.

[IsiahMorris]

Your right he is strange, but not the only in the cream and sugar boat...lol

[HawkLMT]

Thanks for the review. I'll have to give it a try.

[CampfireTalk]

let me know what you think

[biguy525]

Thanks, I heard about their instant and was thinking about trying it, now I will try it. Do you drink it black?

[CampfireTalk]

In this video I tried it black & in the last clip I added a little cream & sugar. I prefer my coffee with a little cream.

[disasternut]

I like my coffee with milk and sugar, I know, I'm strange like that :)

[CampfireTalk]

Nothing wrong with that, but you're still strange :)
