Ever put hot sauce in your coffee?

from Florence, KY.
After looking forward to trying all the different coffees in my sample pack, I was most dissapointed with this one. It had the unpleasant flavor of something like hot sauce or spice. Tried a few sips then poured it down the drain.
I drink my coffee with creamer and sugar and love flavored coffees like mochas so this coffee was WAY too strong for me. I can't overemphasize how STRONG and DARK this coffee is. I couldn't put enough creamer in it to tone it down. I ended up pouring it out. Also my co-workers who are non-coffee drinkers complianed that the smell was too overpowering.
Cons: Unpleasant Flavor, Too strong, Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Unpleasant Aftertaste
Since buying a Keurig machine last November, this has become my favorite. It may not be the strogest coffee I have had, but it is bold without being bitter or having a heavy bite. The aroma is very appealing to me and it brings good memories of the aroma from my dad's old percolator from long ago.
A coffee you can actually add milk/cream to without compromising flavor. Some have written that it is too bitter, I love it, it is made for adding milk without losing the coffee flavor.
If I'm not mistaken, this is the only coffee I have ever been forced to pour down the drain - just couldn't do it. I love extra-bold, black coffee, and I'm sure it's great for some, but definitely not me.
Pros: Pleasing Aroma
Cons: Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Unpleasant Aftertaste, Unpleasant Flavor
