Just a cup of coffee

Well I just got the coffee today and I was excited to try it. I like Donut Shop's flavored coffee (cinnamon bun, chocolate donut) even though the flavor isn't really there (just the smell is for me). So I got this hoping it would give me the flavor and not just the aroma of Vanilla Caramel. Well, it brewed and smelled great. Then I tasted it and it was just a light cup of coffee. Not strong, though I didn't think it would be due to light roast. But I really wanted the flavor. If you like light coffees this is for you. If you have a guest that like light coffee but donesn't like the flavored variety, this is for them becuase they won't know the difference. Dissappointed :(
I ordered a box of four of these and threw 3 away. There was no taste at all. No caramel, no cream no coffee. If it hadn't had the color of coffee, I'd have thought it was hot water!!
Cons: No flavor or taste at all, Unappealing Or Flat Aroma, Not Enough Flavor, Thin Or Watery Mouthfeel/Body
This variety smells wonderful as it's being brewed, but the fantastic aroma is unfortunately misleading. I failed to detect much (if any) of the "caramel" or "vanilla" flavors I was expecting. I'm no coffee connoisseur, and I understand that it was NOT going to taste like a piece of candy in coffee form... I was just disappointed that the flavor was just like any other "normal," slightly watered-down, coffee. That said, it does make your kitchen smell GREAT. :)
Pros: Not Bitter, Pleasing Aroma
Cons: Thin Or Watery Mouthfeel/Body, Not Enough Flavor
This is one of my mom's favorites, but I am really left flat by the flavor. Too heavily flavored, really masks the taste of the coffee. I do enjoy a nice hazlenut flavored coffee, but this is too much flavoring/too little coffee flavor.
I ordered the Green Mountain flavored variety pack. The caramel vanilla cream is my favorite of the mix. I added a little bit of half & half. The flavor is sweet without being overly sweet. There's no bitterness or aftertaste. The aroma is heavenly. It's the perfect way to start my day.
This coffee is delicious and has great flavor. Its one of my favorites by far. I use one artificial sweetner in it and it becomes a healthful sweet treat. I have even made iced coffee with it and its amazing!! Must try!!
