[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid morning coffee drinker I was very impressed with the flavor of these Pick Me Up Provisions Breakfast Blend K-cups! I only drink light roast so this type of brew is right up my alley. The coffee is smooth and light-bodied with only a faint after taste. I drink my java with sweet cream or vanilla creamer and was pleasantly surprised that I did not need to use as much creamer with this blend to achieve the taste I prefer. I mostly appreciated the mellow flavors and very little bitterness. I generally drink K-cups and this box design as well as cup design are pretty standard to most others. The packaging font and name would be likely to draw my attention; a “pick me up” is exactly what we need in the morning for breakfast. I will definitely be purchasing these in the near future!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I found the Pick Me Up Provisions to be a very solid coffee. In my time using K-Cups I have found some to be pretty hit or miss. However after using Pick Me Up multiple mornings in a row I was impressed by the consistency of flavor and the strength of the coffee. When it came to flavor the breakfast blend was a hit for me. I tend to gravitate towards lighter blends of coffee and this being a light blend was right up my alley. While I enjoy coffee everyday it pretty much always has to have cream and some sort of flavoring. I found it rather easy to sip this coffee without anything in it which is not common for me. Another positive of this K-Cup and this is big for me is was the almost zero grounds I found in the coffee after use. There was a couple of instances where there was a tiny bit of grounds at the bottom but it didn't happen often. I've had an issue with other company K-Cups having so many grounds it's undrinkable but this was not a problem for Pick Me Up. I also wanted to note that I will sometimes run K-Cups multiple times. So while my coffee maker will only allow me to use a K-Cup for up to 12 oz of coffee. I felt like I could push this up to 18 oz (so ran it for a 12 and a 6) and still found the flavor to be consistent and didn't really fall off in strength. So with all this praise why just a 4-Star review? While the coffee was solid I didn't find any sort of "wow" factor to it. There was nothing that blew me away. Also I know in the coffee space there are people that are better at vetting quality and I personally am not a super picky person. So without the "wow" factor I didn't feel like I could leave a 5-star in good faith. Overall Pick Me Up was a very solid coffee that I really enjoyed. If I saw it again I would look to grab it because it's been a pleasant coffee to have in the morning. While I may not go out of my way to brag about it to other people if K-Cups or coffee suggestions came up in conversation I would absolutely recommend it to someone who was looking to try something different.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very impressed with this blend of coffee - it tasted great right out of my Keurig without any added sugar or cream. The flavor was light and had a little bit of a nutty hint to it. I typically drink a darker roast but will be adding this to my regular rotation going forward. We also enjoyed the packing and design of the Kcups - a nice fun package to start the morning with and looks great in my spinning Kcup holder!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I got this coffee I was excited to try it as I love to drink coffee and have multiple cups per day. I first tried this coffee with my normal addition of an almond milk creamer and it wasn't very good. The aroma it creates when it's brewing is pleasant though. Then I tried it with whole milk which was better but still not too tasty. Then I tried it with nothing drinking it black to really see what it tasted like. And unfortunately my conclusion was that I thought it had a burned flavor and was pretty watery more like you would imagine tea to taste. That makes me believe the quality of the beans is not very good. I do love the convenience of k-cups and certainly the product package design makes it look appealing. If I had no other coffee to drink I would drink this but I would not buy this coffee myself in the store unless they make some changes with the product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried these Pick Me Up Provisions Colombian K-Cups recently as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I made them the same way I make my coffee every other morning but found them to be pretty weak. I should admit that I do prefer strong coffee so this medium blend may just not be strong enough for me. I liked the K-cup design they worked well with my machine and I plan to just keep the box for guests who prefer a medium roast to a dark roast.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Colombian medium roast coffee is a great true medium coffee not too dark or too light. The flavor is nice and the coffee was smooth. This is a high quality choice. The K-cups were very convenient. I do drink it with a little milk and sugar so I’m not positive how it would taste black. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this coffee.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this coffee from the Stellar Product Review panel. Upon brewing the first thing I noticed was this great rich aroma. Then this coffee makes a bold cup with no bitter after taste. I love the brand name too. Stopping for a cup of coffee is part of my relaxation in between stressful emails so “pick me up” was like a nice reminder to breathe before hoping back on a work call. The cup design makes it easy and fast even when I’m rushing and the option to recycle the cups is also explained on the box. Cute coffee packaging great taste - all around perfect option for a busy coffee lover.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought these Pick Me Up Provisions Colombian Blend Medium Roast K cups were fantastic. These were so fresh!! Some brand K cups are less than fresh but these were phenomenal. I don't always reach for or pick a Colombian blend but I will more often the Colombian flavor was fantastic and just what I have been looking for. I felt the Colombian flavor was exquisite high quality full bodied not burnt like others I have experienced. The flavor notes are toasted caramel and molasses. I have just recently purchased my 2nd k cup brewer because they are just so convenient and easy. No filters no coffee grounds in my trash or coffee and it brews so quickly so I’m not wasting time waiting on a whole pot I might waste. Overall a wonderful cup of coffee nothing fancy but the Colombian flavor takes it to a higher level. My honest opinion is I would buy this product when I run out. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this coffee.
