This coffee is too bold. To me, it had a burnt nutty taste. I don't enjoy coffee that is too bold as this one. I gave it a try because it came with my new machine, but I would never purchase it on my own. I sipped on it a couple times but ended up pouring the rest out. For those who enjoy super strong cups of coffee this is for you. For those who enjoy mellow, light tasting cups this isn't for us!

This is one of the few K Cups we re-order. It has a nice full flavor and is not as weak and watery as many of the cups out there. I'm not a 'dark' coffee drinker but I do like my coffee to have some body to it. The darker roasts are generally too bitter tasting. This is a nice balance.

Of all the medium roast K-cups I have tried, this is by far my favorite. Newman's Special Blend Extra Bold Coffee is one of the few that tastes like a truly "brewed" coffee - not that others taste bad mind you, this just works really well. It begins with a very nice "Drink me!" aroma that ups the ante on most other medium roasts. Acidity is spot on as well which helps give a nice rounded mouth feel while being pleasantly bitter (bitter is a quality in all coffee - so, it's rather strange to say "not bitter" - in my opinion). Even though it's an extra bold brew, it is also great on the 8oz brew as well, especially if one adds cream and or sugar. Newman's Special Blend Extra Bold Coffee is the most consistent in flavor and quality. If you enjoy medium roast coffees, this should not disappoint!

I have had my Keurig for a little over a year. I have tried just about all the different choices in kcups and I have to say this is the one I love! It's the one I choose to drink above all others when I want just pure coffee aroma and flavor. It tastes like the coffe smells, and that's what I desire. A wonderful bodied coffee, and it just fits the bill for a good cup of coffee anytime.

After reading the reviews, I can say that I understand why some people who like bold, strong coffees aren't into Newman's Special Blend. It's a bold, strong coffee for people who don't really want a truly bold, strong coffee. I love coffee, but have never been a big fan of Joe Mugg's or Starbucks (not that either are really that strong), preferring McDonald's or Duncan's to them. Newman's is a great everyday coffee for those who want something just a little stronger and more flavorful than your medium roast Maxwell House or Folger's brews.

Everything about this coffee makes me smile. I love drinking this coffee. I like it more than coffee bought brewed from a coffee shop. Try it just black or with a splash of half & half...NEVER ADD SUGAR! My only concern is the cheap K-cup, in which the foil top delaminates from the plastic cup and explodes coffee grounds all over the inside of my machine as well as in my cup. Nothing ruins an amazing cup of coffee like spending 20 minutes cleaning a machine before trying again.

This K-Cup offers a nice, hearty cup of coffee, perfect for any time of day or night, and has a pleasant, nutty flavor. It's one of the blends I keep on-hand at the office and at home. If you like a strong brew, without bitter aftertastes, and if you regularly drink coffee, consider purchasing the Value (80-count) pack, when available. You won't be disappointed.

My husband gifted this product to me for Christmas & I am so glad he did. I have tried all of the flavors in the sample package, and I must say this flavor HAS to be one of the BEST cups I have ever enjoyed. I only wish it was in the stores, so I would not have to wait on it to reach my home.

I have tried a large number of the 'bold' coffees, and this one is definitely in the bottom half of the samples I have tried. If you're looking for a bold coffee, you should try others. Personally two that I think are much better than Newman's Bold are Emeril's bold and Gloria Jean's Black Gold.

I Have literally tried every regular coffee from keriug and by FAR Newmans Own WINS hands down!! Every other coffee is amiss for one reason or another, but Newmans Organic had it ALL! UNREAL!! I never thought that perfect cup was possible..... but it EXISTS !!!! Try it and see
