I saw this new dark roast and the reviews were good, so I chose it for my monthly 4 box order. Somehow I made a mistake and doubled my order, so I got 8 boxes…….terrible mistake to make with a new coffee! I have been drinking this coffee and hating every minute of it. There is no bold taste, no subtle flavors I can discern, I don’t even get a nice aroma when brewing. The only thing I can say is that it’s pretty strong, but that’s it! Some of my usual favorites are Peet’s Holiday Blend, Peet’s Major Dickason, Barista Prime Italian Blend, etc. This Black Granite is nothing like any of those, it reminds me of bad fast food coffee!
Also, you certainly shouldn't take this product for granite because it is very delicious and welcoming first thing in the morning prior to a Le Mans style freeway commute.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I often find keurig pods hit or miss, but have found the green mountain black granite very enjoyable and I see it becoming a staple go to in the future. I usually drink my coffee black with no milk or sugar, so flavor is really important and this does the trick!
