As others have said, this coffee brings back memories of when I was little kid in Chicago shopping with my grandmother at A&P. I obviously didn't drink coffee as a little kid, but the aroma near the coffee grinder always caught my attention and I was drawn to it. These K-Cups have the same 'appealing' coffee aroma and the flavor is excellent. Can understand why this product is frequently out of stock. Great cup of coffee anytime of the day.
This smells just like the original that my mom bought at the A&P when I was a little girl. Oh, how I loved the aroma when she ground those beans! I bought this right until A&P went out of business and was thrilled to see it come back in K-cups. I stand by the brewer and inhale; it actually brings back fond memories and I think it tastes wonderful. Right now it's my absolute favorite. PLEASE get it back in stock soon. It is very difficult to find in stores.
Pros: Smooth Taste, Pleasing Aroma, Not Bitter, Pleasing Roast
I remember grinding beans from the 'Red Bag' in the A&P for my Mom back in the 60's. Then her using her aluminum drip pot to make the best smelling coffee! This duplicates that as well as the great coffee taste. Not that bitter stuff at the snob shops.
Since I bought my first Keurig coffee maker, I've enjoyed tasting new coffees one cup at a time instead of having to buy it by the pound. Until I discovered 8 O'clock, my favorite was Caribou but I still kept trying others. I think this one is a winner and I'll stick with it.
Pros: Exceptional/Interesting Flavor, Balanced Acidity, Smooth Taste, Not Bitter
