We are very fussy about our coffee and like it strong, but not bitter! We've tried all the different bold coffees, and this one has the best "strong but also smooth" taste. It is now the only one we order. Wish it came in decaf too!
Several years back I had to switch to decaf at my doctor's suggestion, but I'll risk a case of the jitters to drink a cup of this coffee. I use this as my occasional after lunch pick-me-up. The rich aroma, while it is brewing, reminds me of my old Daddy brewing dark roast in his little ceramic drip pot before going off to work in the morning.
I enjoy a strong cup of coffee, particularly in the morning. This one, however, isn't just strong. It's undrinkable in it's just-brewed form. I have to doctor it up with enough sugar and half-and-half just to stomach it. I'm glad I bought a sample pack and not a full box.
The only reason this got 4 stars from me is the price--Otherwise it's 5 star all the way baby!!! We have this at the station I work out of--I have to lock up my K cups or when I come back on duty, the box is half empty!! It's a bangin' cup of coffee- one of my favorites anywhere anyplace!!
Strong, bold roast that reminds me of a fresh, single brewed cup of coffee at Lavazza or Intelligentsia. High Quality and guests will be impressed for an after dinner cup of Joe.
I am a decaf coffee drinker, however I have yet to find a decaf that stands up in ice. I tried the Barista blends and I am hooked. If you like strong coffee,this is for you. It is great on ice, from the first to last sip and does not get watered down. Better than espresso if you want one of those iced mocha drinks served elsewhere. Save your cash and make your own.
