Great Cup of Coffee for me & my husband!

This is a great cup of coffee for me & my husband. I love BOLD, Intensive coffees, my husband enjoys very light & mild coffees. This coffee is the exception. We both enjoy this blend & roast. The fact that there is no bitter taste makes this perfect.

Inconsistent

I have been through 4 of the 80 K-Cup boxes. Although most of my brewed cups have been satisfactory, 8 to 10 cups per box have been too acidic or bitter. I purchase these at a discount and so have been continuing to buy. However, because of the on-going inconsistency I've experienced, I'm now going to change to another brew.

Not worthy of Newman name nor special

This product is not worthy of the Newman name nor the attribute of special. I tried the 10, 8, and 6 ounce settings. I had to search for coffee flavor. The taste was watered down, diluted, as I would expect if I had brewed a second cup of coffee through the same K-Cup. I see a trend in the reviews, that it is not unusual to read that a product was once a favorite but lately has fallen way short of expectations. I suspect cost savings or mass production has led to a lax quality control. I have had other Newman coffees and found them to be outstanding. I don't have the money to reorder the good ones just to test my theory.

Bitter

I thought Newman's Own coffee would refelect to the smoothness of Paul Newman, but I was mistaken. It tends toward the harsh bitterness of Newman from 'Seinfeld'. Not very palatable at all. I am glad I purchased trial packages so that I only had the one cup of this blend to contend with.

[@] IS CHEAPER

Aside of Keurig being out of stock on this item, they charge [$] for non members and [$] for members for the 80 count box. [@] charges [$]for 160 count box. I called Keurig to see if they have any sort of price match and she responded with a "um no, the price is what it is" For that nasty reason alone, I will not place an order on this web site again. Thank you Keurig, it was a pleasure speaking with you today.

My Regular

I always buy this coffee after spending inordinate amounts of time trying to decide which new bold coffee to sample. Living in Europe for so long, I like to taste the coffee but don't like bitterness. Hard combination to find in USA. Newman's Extra Bold is a safe choice, nothing flashy, just comforting.

I Love This Stuff!

As with Donut Shop Bold, I've been drinking Newman's Extra Bold now for about a year and a half. I think Newman's Extra Bold is so much better, but it's not for everyone. It tastes stronger and seems to be a little thicker. It has a different, but I think, more complex taste. Good stuff!

My Number One

I love the flavor of this coffee. It's rich and bold, but doesn't have a burnt flavor. In fact, the subtle taste varieties are easily discernible. I like the flavor swishing the coffee around in my mouth and I like it as I swallow. At eight ounces, there's a tad too much bite for my taste, but the coffee is strong enough to withstand ten ounces. No bitterness, yet not watery. I'd love for them to make a regular K-Cup with this blend, but if not, I'm okay doing ten ounces. I drink coffee plain, and this one is absolutely a dream to start or end a day. I've been trying to find a go-to coffee that's rich, yet not bitter or sour and with the subjective flavors I love. I've found it in this Special Blend and I see no more reason to keep hunting when this hits everything I've been looking for. Bravo to Newman's.

Change for the worst

Just bought a new case. It says best by 05/31/18. It is sooooo weak, I would compare it to the half cafe my husband is drinking. I even did a sampling between the last couple I had and this box. The difference was so extreme. You can hear a difference in the grind when you shake the k cup.

Some of the best coffee I've had...

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.
