Love the balance on this one. Pleasant, mild, nutty taste. Coffee flavor isn't lost with this one. Ordered the big box after trying this in a sampler pack. Since I add finely chopped hazelnuts to my Tiramisu recipe (a sprinkling between the layers of cream), I thought I would try dipping my ladyfingers in this flavor when making the recipe. Was incredible!!
I got this in the variety pack that came with my Keurig. I am glad I got to try it before I bought any. It doesn't have much of a hazelnut flavor that I could tell. Overall it was a nice cup of coffee, but it didn't have the special tweak of flavor I expect with a flavored coffee.
Pros: Balanced Acidity, Smooth Taste, Not Bitter, Pleasing Aroma
Cons: Not Enough Flavor
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is by far my favorite k-cup! I love the smell when it's brewing and the taste is wonderful. Add some Hazelnut creamer for a little something extra and I'm there!
This is by far the best K-Cup offered. I have bought and sampled over 40 varieties and it just can't be beat. I am a 28 year old, stay at home mother of 3 and always in need of a quick pick me up... and this steps up to the plate. Would highly recommend it. I tend to us a Caramel creamer which pairs perfectly with it. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I have.
Hazelnut? Really? Did not taste any hazelnut at all and was very disappointed, not even a hint of hazelnut so how could this pass as hazelnut flavor? I don't get it because it didn't really taste like anything.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not nuts about this one

Of the variety pack I bought- this was the coffee I was most excited about. As it was brewing a delicious hazelnut aroma filled my kitchen-- sadly the aroma faded away quickly and the hazelnut taste was a bit artificial tasting. I also felt the coffee tasted a bit bitter, some people might not mind this but it was a deal breaker for me. Over all this wasn't the worst cup I've tasted so I gave it 3 stars-- if you want to try it do so but don't expect too much.
Pros: Pleasing Aroma, Smooth Taste
Cons: Tastes a bit artificial, Unpleasant Flavor, Unpleasant Aftertaste
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The coffee is not a bad tasting coffee. When I drink hazelnut coffee, I am expecting a rich nutty flavor and this does coffee does not do it for me. The coffee is good, but it is not the best tasting coffee.
Pros: Balanced Acidity, Smooth Taste, Tast is rather smooth, Not Bitter, It is not a strong coffee
Cons: Not Enough Flavor, Aroma is not present, Unappealing Or Flat Aroma, Not a rich nutty flavor
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ms. Nutt likes GJ Hazelnut

GJ Hazelnut was provided in a free sample with my Keurig brewer, and was my first cup I tried at home. I was pleasantly surprised with the smooth taste - it was just what I was looking for, and not too overpowering. While I drink and enjoy lots of other . . . coffees which are quite bold, I wanted to find a (flavored) coffee that wasn't quite as bold, and I found it with this. I've tried other brands of Keurig cups at the gym - some good and some a little too weak. Sooo, take it from a true Nutt, Gloria Jean's Hazelnut passes the test.
