I recieved my Keurig Brewer for Christmas and soon found out that the Keurig website sells many more flavors that I can find (or have the time to find) in my local stores and at a discount. Furthermore, instead of buying a box of K-Cups you can buy sample packs. I bought a sample of this and I'm glad I did - it's delicious!! I will be buying an entire box soon. The only con I believe with this flavor is it seemed slightly water, but still delicious and smells amazing. I just add a shot of creamer and a sweetner and it's delicious. I'm contemplating brewing another cup right now!
Pros: Balanced Acidity, Not Bitter, No gross aftertaste, Yum, Attractive Mouthfeel/Body, Smooth Taste, Exceptional/Interesting Flavor, Pleasing Aroma
Cons: Thin Or Watery Mouthfeel/Body, Not Enough Flavor
I love vanilla coffee however I have had several cups of this coffee, plain, with different creams and I am not happy with the flavor at all. Either I received some very old coffee or it is just bad.
I purchased the sample pack & this flavor is pretty good. I would have preferred a darker roast. It is very light. The flavor is great though. I think it would be good for a non-coffee drinker. It is smooth and pleasant with notes of caramel and the vanilla is not overpowering as it can be with other brands. I added a splash of plain cream, as the flavor in this one stands on its own.
When we ordered our Keurig brewer (B155) we also ordered a huge variety of the 5 k-cup sample packs so we could really play the k-cup field. This is definitely one of my favorites (at the 8oz serving). Initially, I was experimenting with a new k-cup each brew...but that method didn't last too long after trying this one. It's just so darn yummy! My boyfriend is also hooked, so I either have to order more or hide a few in my secret spot. Hushhh! :p
I am not a typical coffee connoisseur because I need to doctor up my ocffee with cream and sugar. I tend to go toward flavored coffee and was pleasantly surprised by this one. Unlike other flavored coffees by Green Mountain, I felt this one lived up to its name. I still added cream and sugar, but very little. It didn't taste acidic or bitter. I'll be a repeat buyer.
