My friend brought this from Germany. He told this was quite cheap. Is this considered as a cheap and bad coffee in Germany?

If it’s cheap it’s cheap. If you like how it tastes who gives a fuck?
Yeah without knowing this brand it looks to me like cheap supermarket coffee, doesn’t mean it has to be bad though 🤷
The general consensus in Germany seems to be that cheap is fine enough because they don’t drink coffee to enjoy it, but solely because of the caffeine.
Of course there are outliers, but the disgusting trash that is served in offices and people’s homes is scary. Many homes have opted for fully automatic coffee machines, because they are fast and the product is “good enough”
idk how this tastes. i don’t like this high and low rhetoric very much. where i live there are a lot of hipster cafes that are praised online for their good coffee. and i don’t like their coffee. it tastes like acid to me. i think they brew it with pee. but it’s considered “high quality”. the other day i had one on a fancy street but in a bakery. and it was one of the best coffees i ever had. it was one of those with fruity flavors. i like those very much. it cost 2,20€ while the other cafes will charge 5€
It is the supermarket store brand of Penny discount. So yeah, it’s cheap. Doesn’t have to mean it’s bad. It’s probably not good enough if you’re a coffee enthusiast, but it might be the same level as Segafredo, Lavazza, etc.
To be fair, even cheap coffee can be good.
I found myself enjoying some supermarket brands (i.e LIDL or ALDI), they do have decent coffee beans. And yes, I do have a proper Portafilter Machine and grinder.
And then, there are big brands like for example „Lavazza“ I personally don’t like at all.
You got whole beans so comparing it to most people I know who drink coffee you’re something of a fancy pants lol
