I was a k-cup newbie, in the store, pondering the overwhelming selection. Two young guys took pity on me and handed me a box of Pike Place and said they had it for breakfast every morning and it was fantastic. They were right! It one of my faves.
Finally I don't have to drive across town for my Starbucks! I have control over how strong or weak it is by adjusting the cup size and I have never had a bad cup yet!! As the coffee drips my kitchen is filled with the aroma as my tastbuds anxiously await my first taste. When it cools just a little I can't wait any longer and with my first sip I am awarded with a medium bodied taste that makes me say ahhh!
I found myself going to starbucks everyday to get a cup of pike place, when I found them in K-cups I was all too excited to make my favorite cup of coffee at home! talk about a time saver and money saver! If you like the medium roast, brewed coffee from starbucks, then this is your k-cup!
Pros: Pleasing Aroma, Not Bitter, Smooth Taste, Pleasing Roast
I use Pike in the form of K-cups and in ground form for my drip pot, I buy directly @ [@]. ( FYI - Pike is the DEFAULT coffee made at ALL Starbucks). First off everyone's taste buds are different. If you can appreciate a strong , smooth well balanced cup of coffee then this is for you! It is NOT acidity, my advice to those who did not like it you might try using more water while brewing.... I prefer the 7.25 - 9.25 oz per K-cup. My other FAVs are Caribou / Donut Shop by Coffee People. In a Pinch I will use Dunkin Donuts Dark Roast - althought D&D in my opinion has too much acidity. good luck in finding your favorite cup of enjoyment!!!
