I was so excited that Starbucks decided to join the Keurig family and make k-cups. Sumatra is one of my favs, so I was excited to buy it. It tastes just as great as when I brewed it in a regular coffeemaker. I'm hoping Starbucks decides to make Verona next! Great job Starbucks! Keep the k-cups coming!

First of all, I was very happy to see that Starbucks (my favorite coffee) joined forces with Keurig (my favorite coffee delivery system). Secondly, the Sumatra coffee is very dark & delicious. I think it's every bit as good as a pot fresh brewed. I get excited just thinking about my first cup in the morning! How can I stay sleepy after such a bold cup of coffee? THANK YOU STARBUCKS!!

I finally ran out of decaf Sumatra. After hearing it was discontinued I managed to find a few remaining bags at local stores. Now I am on a mission to find a replacement for a coffee that I had been exclusively drinking for the past 5 years. I have tried the Cafe Verona and Expresso decafs and, while they aren't terrible, the flavor is not as smooth as the Sumatra. Perhaps more importantly, the Sumatra utilized the Swiss Water decaf process, rather than the more common chemical process. I am confused why Starbucks would discontinue the variety that is chemical free considering company ethics. So now, I am trying other companies' water processed decafs, hoping to find one that comes close to Starbucks Decaf Sumatra. If anyone has found one, please share in these reviews.

Starbuck's Sumatra reg and decaf: preference for years I mix them 1/2 & 1/2 4 times a week. I like a strong flavored brew living in the midst of coffee drinkers who seem happy with hot brown colored water. I have to travel for at least an hour to find coffee brewed to my taste. I have family in St. Paul, MN where i find rivaling brews at Dunn Bros.

I could not pass up the price for this, as it was BOGO. I drink my coffee black most of the time, so it's a great way to truly compare coffees. I found the Sumatra to be more medium, not a full-bodied taste. Although it is a dark roast with a good smell, it didn't have a lot of flavor on its own, to the point that I had to resist the urge to put my almond milk & sugar in there. It was basic, no Verona, but for the price? Very good.

Love the coffee. Got whole bean. (Customer service/website issue: First time order, I wasn't sure if I could actually choose the grind, i.e. for french press. Maybe that was a later choice option, and I didn't get to that point, but the two choices seemed to be ground or not.) It does give me the excuse to go to my local SB store, have it freshly ground when I am ready...and enjoy a coffee and perfect oatmeal. And a perfect start to my day!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Oh my goodness-this Starbucks Sumatra Ground Coffee is absolutely delicious! So rich,smooth and bold flavor. It is the perfect ground coffee to start my day.I am so in love,and will be making for my hubs for valentines. #ad #freesample highly recommend this awesome product.

I have been using Sumatra for many years, and I went back to ordering online after inventory levels started to decline in the local stores. This product is over-roasted and does not seem as fresh/aromatic as it was in the past. The beans are dry, with no oil on the surface. As if it were old stock. Sumatra used to be my favorite Starbucks offering, hands down. I'm not giving up yet, but I have had better Sumatra than this last shipment!

The flavor is good, same as always. However, I am disappointed that the packaging is not at all what it looked like on the website. You see, I bought this coffee beans online partially because I liked the design of the package, but what I got was the old version (white background with some purple design on it). And this made me feel I was lied to about the product. The flavor was good tho.

I've been chocolate-whipped cream-with a splash of coffee - drinker for 12 years. But now trying to "eat clean" and though I hate black coffee, I thought I'd give this one a try. The flavor is DELICIOUS! I can ACTUALLY taste the smooth yet bold flavors and with NO BAD AFTER TASTE. If this is what I've been missing in The flavor of REAL coffee then I feel sorry for me.
