I wasn't sure about this one at first. I needed a second sampler to finally confirm it was a brew I could drink over the long term. There is a slight aftertaste, but it is worse on other coffees, even on coffees I like, so I wouldn't even demote it a star for that. If you really only like lighter coffees, this is not one for you. This is a true lower medium to dark range coffee. It is flavorful, yet has a balance and definitely not bitter. I wish I could give it 4.5 stars. Its not perfect, but dang close.
This coffee works well in the morning to wake you up and also in the afternoon when you'd like something interesting after a meal or in the afternoon. The coffee is on the stronger side, without being bitter or acidic. A hint of nuttiness makes this more than just coffee. Worth a try.
From all the reviews I read, I thought this would be my favorite coffee (K-cups). It is really not a dark roast to me, even brewed on the smallest cup size. I imagine it would be fine for someone who occasionally likes a cup of coffee, but not for those of us who want a decent cup of coffee. Much too weak in flavor. I'd rather drink tea.
Pros: Not Bitter
Cons: Roasted Too Light, Bland, Not Enough Flavor, WEAK
The only way I could enjoy this k-cup would be to brew two k-cups on the smallest setting for one cup of coffee. I thought this was very uneconomical and a waste of coffee.
I was surprised at how enjoyable and delicious this was. I only ordered the sample pack , which I do get different ones every two months or so, and so far this has been the biggest surprise . I'm ordering a full box now
