CAMPAIGN | Tassimo
Anyone who spends five minutes with me knows that I’m a big fan of coffee. I’ve not really been fancy with it; I don’t grind my own beans or travel with my own coffee kit. Although I totally want to one day…
I love velvety, rich coffee, not too strong but definitely enough of a kick to get me going in the morning. I like it with milk and I like to have several cups a day. I don’t have many vices but coffee is mine and I’m not giving it up!
So I was genuinely delighted to join TASSIMO in their campaign to promote their My Way machine. I’ve never had my own coffee machine, it’s been on my fantasy life wish list for quite some time but I’ve always been overwhelmed with the options, brands, etc. so it was actually brilliant to have the choice made for me.
The My Way machine is a sleek black with silver highlights, it’s bigger than some I’ve seen but it’s still compact enough to slip into our kitchen without having to rearrange elements that already live on the worktops. It’s so, so easy to use, my 3 year old makes her own hot chocolates (under supervision of course as there’s very hot water involved.)
We tested all the coffee variety options that we could and I loved fulfilling my barista dreams without actually having to go to a coffee shop everyday. The Latte Macchiato is all creamy, velvety foam with a dark intense shot of L’OR coffee; it was perfect to keep me productive throughout the afternoon.
At the weekend when friends came by for brunch instead of instant on offer I was able to impress with either Kenco’s Americano Smooth or Costa’s popular Americano. My parents popped in and have ransacked the Cappuccino pods declaring it better than those at the coffee shops, I guess this will entice them to visit more!
What was an even nicer surprise was finding out there is a Hot Chocolate option and not any old hot chocolate but one from Milka! Which was so nice as the guys got to be involved and as I mentioned the machine is so easy to use they could make their own, we used glass mugs so they could see it fill up and then finish with a chocolaty foam, of course hot chocolate needs handfuls of marshmallows doesn’t it?
The last option to try was the espresso! Normally I stop drinking coffee around 3pm because too much caffeine does affect my sleep, however the My Way machine does let you alter the strength from 1, 2, or 3 (3 being the strongest). And on occasion, especially during these long, hot summery nights when we are still outside at sunset in that magical golden light, I do like a little shot of espresso, albeit a mild one!
And it’s another option to offer guests, which won’t fail to impress!
I have been genuinely impressed with the TASSIMO My Way machine, I like how easy it is to use, how simple it is to work the menu options, small, medium or large cups, 1-2-3 in strength and even how hot you want it from cool, normal or extra hot. It’s easy to refill the water, the container slides in and out effortlessly and it’s easy to clean, no tricky nooks or places where dirt can build, the over flow tray comes out easily it’s just two parts and the whole machine can be wiped down in seconds.
We love this new addition to our kitchen.
Thanks TASSIMO
