The Worst K-Kup of all so far

With a variety pack I received about 7 of these k-cups. I tried the first one and it was very bitter. I let my mother inlaw to try it seperatly without knowing my feelings about it and she said to me the same think. I tried over 50 different variaties of k-cups but this one definetly take the 1st place of the worst taste and the most bitter flavor. This is the first time I write a negative review but I am so dissapointed and hope maybe they can do something to fix that problem.
Pros: None
Cons: Unpleasant Flavor, Bitter, Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity

Tops come off! What a mess!

I would have given this coffee 5 stars except for a major manufacturing flaw. This coffee really suits my tastes. However, there is one HUGE, major drawback. In the packs I've purchased, at least a third of the cups have a major flaw. The lids come off during the brewing process! This spews grounds all over the coffee maker, into the cup, and onto the counter. It is a huge mess. Who wants to have to thoroughly clean the coffee maker before getting a cup of coffee? It can certainly get your morning off to a rotten start. I'll be spending my money elsewhere.
Pros: Great taste, Bold Flavor

Surprisingly good for a Bold coffee

I am not a big fan of bold, I enjoy a breakfast blend and other lighter blends. I gave this a try as part of a sample pack and have since purchased more for the times I need an extra kick. Most bolds I find to be too dark and bitter. Emeril's is dark but I did not find that it was overly bitter and really enjoyed the taste:)
I am not a big fan of French Roast. Most of the time I find it too bitter. However, this coffee is awesome! Not bitter at all, great aroma, and very smooth taste. I don't notice any aftertaste at all! I have K-Kaps that I use with other dark roast coffees and use those for just regular coffee fixes. But, when I REALLY want to sit and enjoy a great cup of coffee this has become my treat coffee.
This coffee is wonderful. I love everything about the flavor and strength. I purhcased a box after tasting a sample provided with my new Keurig. The sample worked just fine, but every K-Cup in the box I purchased busted open at the end of the brew cycle. It made the biggest mess. I like this coffee so much, I am opening the top foil with a sharp knife and pouring it in the "my K-Cup". I hesitate to purchase another box of this coffee, but I probably will purchase and hope this was a one time defect.
This is a very bold but smooth blend; it has a nice, smooth mouth feel. It is smoky [but not too much] with a little herbaceous undertone to it. I cannot detect any acidity at all, which I find pleasing. Big Easy Bold reminds me of Sumatra but without the acidity or the browned caramel undertone and aftertaste. I really enjoy this blend a lot and do recommend it. To me this blend is almost perfect, not quite due to the lack of a little sweetness, this is why I did not rate this one 5 stars...personally, my favorite blend is Kona.
