A Great coffee

I made 2 cappuccinos with this. 2 6oz cups. had to go for a second cup. This coffee is organic, meaning it was grown without cemicals. A great plus for our morning brew. What I used to froth my milk was a smaller french press put out by bodum. It did a great job. but When I get a Rivo I will be able to get the exact type of froth for the type of drink I make. for now I make due with what have until I can get a Rivo. The bolder coffees work very well to do this with.

Ruined What was once great!

I don't know why this site keeps hiding the reviews it already had. I can't see them at all. It says there are 42 reviews but they are hidden from public view. This coffee was once great and then they got greedy. Comparing an old pod to a new pod it CLEAR that they add a 3rd LESS coffee in each pod. I can see when I hold it up to a light bulb. They might have switched beans too because it's now weak and doesn't have the same flavor. It's just awful! PLEASE don't spend your money on this. It's AMAZING how they still label it on this site as "Extra Bold" that's just down right comedic and a flat out lie.

Strong Flavor, But...

I've been buying this blend for a couple years now. It's got a strong flavor (and I typically brew 12 oz from 1 pod) that's a little bitter, but I like it. However, something is wrong with the Kcups, which is why I'm leaving this review. For months now - it's January 2021 and since sometime around the summer of 2020 - I've had issues brewing with these pods. I brew a 12 oz or 10 oz and I end up without a full brew. I thought it was my machine. I descaled, and descaled, and descaled, and made sure to wipe all the parts down again and again and again, and rinsed, and descaled, etc. I decided to try a different coffee pod brand and yesterday I brewed a new pod. My 12 oz actually came out as 12 oz. I brewed a Newman's right after and it didn't fully brew. Today I again brewed a pod from the new brand and it brewed a full cup. What the heck! Turns out all these months the Newman's pods/coffee grinds are the issue! I'm not sure what changed since I didn't use to have this issue the first year, but I won't be buying Newman's pods anymore.

Not the Same

When they changed the packaging lid cover, they changed the blend. I loved the original. It was full bodied without ANY bitter taste. This one, to me has a very bitter taste that lingers. I will not drink it anymore. My husband say's it's a bit bitter but he doesn't want to through it away. If it was just me I'd pitch it. We will not be purchasing this one again.

plus for ethics, minus for taste

I tried this Newman's product because it was fair trade and organic. I love a strong, robust coffee and thought the EXTRA BOLD would be perfect. It is not at all. Mild flavor and NO kick that you would think the words "Extra" and "bold" would bring you. The coffee is fine for a mild roast, but do not buy if you are looking for a true Extra Bold!

Many failures and one success!

I like to get the 80 bx qty., just don't think buying in bulk qualifies for my courtesy boxes that came with registering my Kuerig. So excited when my hubby gave me one for my birthday, I bought every flavor 12 pk available, then my daughter turned me on to Newman's Own and haven't purchased another brand since. Enjoy every taste.

One of the Best

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.

My favorite so far

I am not sure how this "Medium Roast" is also "Extra bold" at the same time. I don't think it is really "extra bold". It has a balanced flavor (not bitter, not too acidic) and a good texture (not too watery, not too grainy). I like to try out different brands/roasts but am always happy going back to the Newman's Own.

This is why I love the sample pack

I probably never would have given the Newman's Own K-Cup a second glance if it hadn't been included in the sampler pack that came with my brewer, but it ended up being one of my favorites. The flavor and body are exactly what I expect from a cup of coffee, and the roast suits my taste perfectly - on the dark side, but without being charred beyond recognition. This is definitely going to be one of my stand-by K-Cup choices.

super smooth flavor

First and foremost, to be able to enjoy a cup of coffee as good as this, and be able to know that a large portion of what you paid for it goes toward "hole in the wall gang" started by Paul Newman, for kids with terminal illness. That in itself is just as heartwarming as the first sip!
