L'or is a brand launched earlier this year (2017) by Douwe Egberts as a "premium" brand. I thought it was an old fashioned cheap or standard brand. It tastes the same as the other rubbish by Douwe Egberts, but without the romance of the name. In fact it probably is the same stuff, but in new packaging.
The Elegant is dark roasted, but not harsh. Lots of roast flavours - quite rich, but no character. It's drinkable, but tastes just like every other dark roasted coffee. If you like dark roasted I think you can safely go for the cheapest brand you can find, because there is little actual difference between them.
This is a little smoother than the Classique Intensity 7, so I find it a little easier to drink. But, like the Classic (sorry, [assumes French accent] "Classique"), I am not going to finish the whole packet. Life is too short for rubbish like this.
Score: 3
