My first taste of Sumatran was at a desert and coffee shop in Eugene, Oregon in 1986. We went in for some rich chocolate deserts and some good coffee. The first taste was unlike any coffee I had tasted before. It was smooth and rich with a texture not unlike hot cocoa. And there was no bitterness. I found out it was Sumatran and it has been my go to coffee ever since. I recommend it to everyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starbucks Sumatra Ground Coffee is exceptional! Bold, earthy, and full-bodied, it delivers a smooth yet intense flavor. The grind is perfect for a rich brew, and the packaging keeps it fresh. Highly recommend for dark roast lovers! #ad

Received my box this morning and popped a Starbucks Sumatra k cup in my Keurig right away. So surprised by the healthy aroma and the wonderful taste! I dislike acidic coffee and this brew is perfect for my taste buds. If you like VN coffee, you can add 2 tsp condensed milk to 10 oz cup and voila, you made your own delicious brew. Make it with 8 oz setting, cool it a little, then pour it over ice cubes for a refreshing iced coffee. I’m ordering another box while it’s on sale, Sumatra is my favorite now

A.M. There is nothing more stimulating than drinking it black first thing in the morning before the house wakes up. P.M. My little taste of heaven brewed stronger with cream & sweetener, my "dessert" as the house has left me to my own thoughts. I'd been a french roast drinker for years. This is by far my all time favorite. I have tried other brands, Starbucks reigns supreme!!! Thank you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent coffee! The bag is easy to open and easy to close back up for fresh coffee. The coffee is easy to get out of the bag. As the coffee brews it is very aromatic and unmistakeably a premium cup of coffee. The coffee is easy to drink and has a nice robust flavor. I am a big fan, and plan to keep my pantry stocked!

I love Sumatra Dark roasted coffee so much, I bought the company! Just kidding. But, if I had the resources, I would buy it in a heartbeat. Just a suggestion: Anybody that orders (6) bags or more at a time should get one of your classy Starbucks coffee cups on the house. If I owned the company, that's what I would do.

I purchased this coffee for the family to drink every morning. Myself I enjoy dark roasted but my regular is Starbuck's House Blend or Veranda because my family usually leans towards lighter roasts. When I brewed Starbucks Sumatra it smelled great but when I tasted it let's just say it just tasted burnt. My acid reflux kicked it right up, that's how over roasted this coffee is. The rest of the coffee lovers in my family couldn't stomach this coffee and they love coffee! I couldn't get them to try it again the next day, so I got stuck trying to drink it myself. I watered it down, added less coffee grounds per 6 oz. Nothing worked I had to finally give up and throw the coffee out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What is the best way to wake up? With Starbucks in your cup of course!!! Open the bag and let the aroma wash over you as you prepare your coffee maker and make the first delicious cup of this smooth full flavor. It will make your taste buds dance with sure delight!!! #ad

Starbucks' dark roasts will always be a first choice for me; Komodo Dragon is at the top of my list, and Sumatra is a worthy contender. This was my first purchase through the online store, and it was delivered on time, intact, and was delicious when brewed: you can't beat the aroma of brewing coffee. Thanks for everything!
