I've been drinking Columbian (Folgers) for years now I'm trying these cups. So my judgement going to be slanted. I'm keeping track of which I like and don't and I'm sorry to say this one fell under the do not buy this one again.
I love good coffee. I'm the guy at work who fought to make sure we had a brand everyone loved because I don't just drink coffee for the caffeine, I'm not the sort to "ignore the taste and work through it". I need a good coffee with a flavor I can enjoy, that I can drink at any time of the day, and that won't trigger my ever-lingering threat of acid reflux. This does it all and goes beyond expectations. This makes a comforting, tasty, and all-together wonderful coffee.
I bought this based on the reviews and the Starbucks name. This is the first coffee I've tried from them and will not get any more. No matter what I do to it, it still tastes like a dark roast and I can't get rid of the "burned beans" flavor. Very disappointed.
Cons: Unpleasant Aftertaste, Too Dark To Be Medium, Unpleasant Flavor, Too strong
What else can I say, expect that this is hands down, my favorite coffee. The blend is perfect. Not too bold, and not light. The aromoa is simply amazing and the flavor always hits the spot. I've had just about every other brand and flavors out there, and Pike Place is now the only thing I buy.
I normally buy the dark roast coffee's but thought I'd try something new & am pleasantly surprised. I'd recommend this to anyone who like's medium roast.
