Very Surprised

I found this sample, when I ordered my Keurig Machine. The coffee I use now is good. But that's it. Just good. Even the others I have tasted, are just good. When I made this Italian Roast,it was like my taste buds woke up for the first time. I told my husband, "You have to try this! It is the best coffee I have ever tasted!" It has a nutty flavor. And the smoothness is what got me. All coffee has a little bitter taste to it. Oh it is so good. I couldn't believe this did not. I want some right now, but you are out of it.
I love this one in the morning. It has a nice bold taste without being too acidic. I don't drink my coffee without cream & sugar so I can not testify to how it is undoctored.
Got this as a sampler with my machine. Wasn't expecting it to be very good, but out of the 3 I've tried so far, it is the best! Bold and Strong. The others I've tried are grinding my own Tully's French Roast, and the Dark Magic. This one beats these as far as I'm concerned! Very Nice.
Pros: Not Bitter, Exceptional/Interesting Flavor, Pleasing Aroma, Pleasing Roast
I made one cup of this. I tried to tough it out and drink the entire cup. I couldnt do, but felt bad for dumpming an entire cup of coffee. I tried to pass it off to the husband. He took one sip and promptly poured it down the drain!
Pros: None
Cons: Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Unpleasant Aftertaste, Unpleasant Flavor
I don't like coffee that is overly strong - I found this one too strong for me and seemed a tad bitter as well. The flavor was unpleasant also. Got this as a free 12-pk with the Keurig special edition so at least I did not purchase the pods.
