Update 1/23: Wow even years later the company delivers. I just bought a new coffee machine Ninja Dual Pro and there's a way to make a stronger brew with k-pods - so I tried Rich Brew setting with these in 6 oz, 8 oz and extra-strong Specialty Brew on 4 oz. First of all not all k-cups will have a compatible cup with my Ninja (those with hard plastic won't pierce at all). But these babies pierce wonderfully, you will hear a loud pop!
This morning alone I had 3 cups of coffee, and really liked the flavors but now I guess my taste buds changed because I couldn't really discern the flavors all that much. They all sounds super exciting like "chocolate hazelnut"(my most favorite flavor in the world), but I couldn't really taste it. So, finally I decided to have one cup with no sweetener just so I can gauge the bitterness, and honestly even though it can't compete w French Press or Espresso, it's still nice and not overly acidic or bitter. A hint of bitterness but very smooth. The 8 oz setting is good enough, and hits the perfect spot - with 6 oz and 4 oz you immediately in bitter territory and I have to pour a ton of half-n-half which is more carbs than I want. Overall it's STILL an amazing coffee! Even though I didn't get lucky this time to get awesome flavors like raspberry or cherry chocolate, (I ordered a smaller batch) and got the dreaded cinnamon and toffee, I am super happy and had finished them all - they are not as strong anymore, not too acidic or bitter, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy again. I had a 40 pack but wish I gotten the 100 pack, the value is incredible and its totally worth it. They bring SO MUCH delight to my mornings!!!
5 years ago: It’s damn good coffee!!! I received around 120 pods when was supposed to be 100, the flavors are amazing although I haven’t even tried them all. Pod quality is superb 5 stars, very sturdy and never broke. My favorite and strongest flavor is Hazelnut, it’s very caramel like , then Caramel less pronounced, then Vanilla is barely there. Also a blueberry was a pleasant surprise and I liked it. Maple and Pecan I can’t ever really tell the flavor as it’s so faint. Also to compare I bought a Green Mountain caramel vanilla pod, and to me this coffee is stronger, although the flavor only compares to Hazelnut in strength. I haven’t tried Cinnamon yet. Overall INCREDIBLE value for the money and strong coffee that’s awesome but not overpowering in terms of flavor. My least favorite flavor was Toffee, it’s the most artificial yucky flavor that I just couldn’t stand and it’s a strong one like hazelnut. But overall LOVE the coffee, and it’s better than Green mountain so I absolutely recommend it!!!! What an amazing find !!!
