I have been using the “Donut Shop” brand K-Cups exclusively since my wife purchased her single serve Keurig 12 years ago. In my opinion it is the most flavorful and rich brand that my family enjoys every day.

This has become my favorite K-cup product after just the first cup! I grew up in southern NJ and "greasy spoon" diners were found in just about every neighboring town. The coffee served in these diners was perfect! I could sit and drink that coffee for hours. Now that I have my Keurig, I can enjoy the much-loved coffee once again by drinking Original Donut Shop extra bold blend. I'm a fan of flavored creamers, but even with just milk or plain cream, the flavor of this coffee comes pleasantly through. Rich, full, a fantastic aroma as it brews - I can literally drink this all day without the typical upset stomach from the acid in other coffees, even those made by a couple of famous name brands. If you have a friend who has a new Keurig, this would make an exceptional gift...that is, if they're not already drinking this fine coffee!

When I opened the box, every capsule was covered in a residue of coffee. It appears that one of the capsules was compromised during transport. So, while it is great to have a supply of K-cups, having to wipe each one before using is not what I had planned, and it is disappointing.

My favorite coffee

I thought I ordered decaf coffee for my wife, but was surprised and disappointed when I noted that regular coffee was received. I decided to give it a try - not my cup of tea (coffee). I typically use Columbia Select Fair Trade coffee pods and this taste this not appeal to me. I gave some away, but the balance will sit on my shelf or served to guests (whenever guests are allowed again).

My favorite k-cup!

Never, ever had a problem with mail order before. We use to get this coffee in our store and they discontinued it, so we had to use the mail order. I always wondered why, now i know. One of the boxes, the pods are so stale we can't even drink it. Doing some research i found that this coffee is being discontinued period. If you look at our purchases you can see we are big coffee drinkers. I'm pretty upset.

We're terribly disappointed about the change. Since getting the Keurig, Coffee Shop has been our favorite. Claim of new packaging, same great taste is false. Not the same taste AT ALL. Don't like the new stuff but stuck with several cartons of it. Asked about it and Keurig.com folks steadfastly say it's exactly the same. Now looking for a coffee like the original..elsewhere. Why do they insist on changing one of the most popular coffees?

Original Donut Shop has a great balance of Medium Roasted flavor and sweetness, with the richness, full body, and brewing strength expected from an extra bold K-Cup. An excellent choice for coffee drinker that find dark roast too intense or bitter, but still enjoy a strong cup of coffee.

I'm not what you call a coffee aficionado, but I do like my first cup every morning and occasionally throughout the day. Most blends, like say a French Roast are too strong for me, and I find they have a bitter taste. The Donut Shop Coffee, however, has a delightful aroma and a smooth, non-bitter, flavor. I enjoy mine with a flavored creamer. I've tried other "donut shop" brands but none compare to "The Original Donut Shop" brand made by Keurig.
