[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Starbucks Sumatra Ground Coffee! This has a rich and dark coffee flavor that I adore. I love the high quality cup of coffee that this helps me create. Its dark and flavorful! I often opt for Sumatra when buying coffee since I prefer it. This is a great option for dark roast coffee! #ad #freesample

I was pleasantly surprised by this roast of coffee, I am a regular espresso drinker and was given Sumatra as a gift. It is my new favourite roast! I will buy this from now on for use in my espresso machine. The bold flavourful roast makes my espresso taste bland....it is simply amazing! If you have not tried this kind of coffee try it now!

I often choose a bold coffee because I like to know that I am enjoying a REAL cup of coffee not just darkened lightly flavored water. That's just what the Sumatra K-cups offers! I am really glad Starbucks has made this great tasting coffee into a K-cup. This convenience allows me to fully enjoy my Keurig. Thank you Starbucks!

This is the best coffee that I have ever drank. Although now my Doctor says that I have start drinking decaf. That's ok, I will still be buying. It is a smooth bold flavor that does not leave a bitter after taste. It last me for over a month sometimes. Great Quality!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Starbucks Sumatra Ground Coffee is smooth and bold! I love the flavor profile and also how easy it is to use in any coffee machine. I love all of Starbucks is blends. But this one might be my new favorite! #ad

As a long time lover of dark roast coffee, sumatra just does not make the grade. It is a good medium roast. Many coffee shops serve it as their medium roast while serving true dark roasts ie. French,Italian, Espresso, as their dark. If you want proof, simply look at the beans - they are brown in colour, not black like true dark roast beans are.

I bought my first Verisimo the first week they came out. Until recently I only bought the Espresso pods. However I have switched to Sumatra as my coffee of choice. As with another reviewer, I found that purchasing Verisimo pods in a retail location can be a challenge, you have to realize that sometimes the best is not easily available. However purchasing online is easy, and very convenient with rapid delivery.

I'm so disappointed to learn that Starbucks is discontinuing sales of Sumatra Decal...possibly all beans by the pound. I've been buying solely this for over ten years. I see from other reviews, I'm not alone. Starbucks!!! What gives. I know you'll be loosing business as I now have to find something else. So sad. It's the BEST coffe ever. I have converted multiple friends to Sumatra. What will we do? Bring it back PLEASE!!!

I am a bit coffee crazy and I especially love an overly strong cup of it. I have tried all Starbucks available darkroasts as well as several other pricier specialty small roasters coffees. Of them all, I keep going Back to Sumatran. This has a nice strong flavor but is very smooth with no acidic after taste, no pungent burnt taste and it has really pleasant flavor notes. This is the perfect dark roast to sip on.

first, we enjoy bold, full bodied coffee. with our new keurig, three or four "bold" coffees were included, and except for the starbucks french roast, really didn't satisfy for that full flavor. so starbucks french roast was our favorite, until we happened on sumatra. this coffe has a bold, yet smooth flavor...not bitter, no aftertaste. we prepare our coffee on the 7 ounce menu setting of the keurig, using purified water #we have notoriously hard water#. well the brew is just excellent. bold is not for every palate...but for us this coffee is nirvana!!
