This is a great tasting coffee. Ever since I got my Keurig machine I'm learning difference between different coffees. Flavor, Level of Roast and Types. I like this one for it flavor.
My daughter is a real coffee lover (like me.) She likes bold/dark coffee. We tried this and it is horrible and "icky". This coffee is bitter and leaves a taste in my mouth that I don't want to describe.
Pros: Pleasing Aroma
Cons: Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Unpleasant Aftertaste
My Keurig and I are still in our honeymoon stage but after tasting this in my assorted k-cup samples with purchase, I knew I was hooked. I LOVE the smokiness that this roast provides...subtle but adequate; just the right amount to make you eager for the next sip. It's smooth and earthy and contrary to other reviews I don't detect the slightest hint of bitterness. It's coffee like this that makes me so happy that my Keurig and I are together and that we will be for years to come.
Got this at a special price so thought I'd try. Don't waste your time. Had a watery flavor, actually no real flavor at all, and an aftertaste of burnt coffee.
Cons: Unappealing Or Flat Aroma, Unpleasant Aftertaste, Thin Or Watery Mouthfeel/Body, Unpleasant Flavor, Not Enough Flavor
If all that matters to you is an overwhelming bitterness, you might enjoy this. I drink my coffee black and thoroughly enjoy strong, bold flavours but there is no unique taste to this and it is so over-roasted as to actually lose any real coffee favor.
Cons: Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Unpleasant Aftertaste, Unpleasant Flavor
