I'm not too big on actual coffee from Starbucks except for their Casa Cielo brand they carry seasonally but while buying my Keurig brewer at my local grocery store I was looking for K-Cups and this one stood out to me. It is very bold just like I like my coffee. Very smooth with no bitter after taste. I would recommend this to anyone I come across who likes a stronger cup of coffee.
I'm a Starbucks junkie, so having this in a k-cup is nothing short of wonderful. The aroma while it's brewing is heavenly. The taste is exceptional, by far the best extra-bold k-cup out there (in my opinion).
I am now on my second box of Starbucks French Roast coffee since buying the Keurig for my wife for Christmas. I was never a BIG coffee drinker but I like this flavor. It is not for the ones that like "mild" coffee, it is stronger, but I like that. Might have to actually try some other flavors, but if it isn't broke, why fix it!
Pros: Pleasing Roast, Smooth Taste, Pleasing Aroma, Not Bitter
After trying out all the other French Roast imposters (except for the Coffee People Decaf French Roast) this is what French Roast is supposed to smell and taste like. No other selection is even close in my opinion.
Despite the extra expense, I thought I'd try a small supply of the new Starbuck's French Roast K Cups, just to see if I liked it as much as my usual Green Mountain French Roast. And darn it! It's even better! So now it will be my usual morning hit. Only problem is that I have a large supply of my old favorite to get through, before I can drink the new Starbuck's stuff every day!
I have never liked dark roast coffee until I tried Starbucks French Roast. It's pretty much all I buy/drink now. I'd say don't listen to all these light coffee drinkers, but I used to be one of them! What is wrong with their tastbuds?? SO DELICIOUS.
Discovered this one on the shelves of my local grocery store a little while back. After that,I was hooked. felt bad whenever I got the "we miss you" email from this site...lol extremely happy to be able to order it online now!!!
