Lately my Black Silk k-cups have been “exploding “ causing grounds to flow into the water and into my cup!! Not happening with my off brands which certainly doesn’t make sense!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! We are so sorry to hear about your experience with our Folgers Black Silk K-Cups. Exploding pods are certainly not our quality, especially if they are causing grounds to flow into your water. We have reached out via email to learn more about your experience and hope to connect soon.
I drank this coffee expecting a Blod taste and it's not there. It's just dark. Where's the KICK? THANKS FOR THE EXPERIENCE. I would recommend others to try it may work for them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! We are sorry to hear of your disappointment in our Folgers Black Silk coffee. Bland tasting coffee is not the experience we would want you to have with our coffee and we would like to learn more about your experience. We have reached out via email and hope to connect soon.
I bought this coffee a number of years ago and loved it. It became my daily coffee. Being a heavy coffee drinker I very much enjoyed the dark, rich flavor every morning and throughout the day.
Folger's claims the product has not changed, that is not true. The difference in flavor is significant. I like the original, the past, and the newest Black Silk. We consume dozens of boxes per year. Still voting 4/5 because it's nice, but surely different and still changing. QC concern?
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for reaching out, we appreciate your loyalty to Folgers Coffee over the years. We understand your frustration and concern regarding our Black Silk coffee, but can confirm that the coffee has not been reformulated, only our label. We have also reached out via email and hope to connect soon.
I used to enjoy this coffee. Now, it tastes like a regular batch of the Brazilian coffee they have been pushing. Not happy, wish the company was interested in quality control, but this is not black silk coffee, probably all the same roast now, just different packaging to upsell.
I first tried this when I received a free sample and I was so impressed I immediately bought a large container. I love dark roast but don't like the bitterness and acidity. Black Silk is so smooth and stomach-friendly, it's like your favorite morning blend light or medium roast but with all the flavor and boldness you want from a dark roast. This is IT for me. I buy nothing but Black Silk now and I've recommended it to all my friends and family, many of whom have also become dedicated Black Silk purchasers. Please don't ever change it or take it off the market because I sincerely doubt I could replace it with anything that comes remotely close. Black Silk ROCKS!
I would recommend this to a friend!
