I have been drinking dark roast coffees since the initial coffee revolution in the early 1980s. In the past fifteen years, my spouse and I have pretty much steadied upon Starbuck's French Roast as our "go to" coffee. We purchase Starbuck's French Roast K cups in bulk. Recently, we made coffee and to my dismay, there was a hint of chicory in the coffee. Since we only make French Roast, this was not due to bleed over from some other deviant coffee. Either Starbucks allowed some chicory to bleed over into their French Roast production process or they are trying to reduce the cost of materials by blending in some chicory filler. Ugh. I can still taste that awful chicory on my palate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is very tasty coffee. I usually drink the donut type coffee. This is a little stronger than that but has excellent flavor. Strong but not bitter and pretty smooth. These coffee pods are excellent for iced coffee. I make a 12 oz cup and add some sweet cream creamer and a packet of stevia. Pour over ice and you have a very tasty drink. Overall I would recommend these pods to anyone who enjoys a robust cup of coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's good, full but not too strong. I really jazz up my coffee with creamers and such but this one is easy to get too weak with a strong creamer. It has a good caffeine kick and the flavor is there, it's just not as strong as I'm used to. Good though so I can't knock it.

The coffee is great as always, enjoy the convenience. Unfortunately one package had an opened envelope in it and I had sticky coffee all over the inside of package of eight and no star card to redeem. Highly unusual considering your usual high quality standards.

Love Starbucks ! My husband and I have brewed Starbucks coffee at home for 10+ years. Our favorites are the French roast and Anniversary blend. For several years we purchased enough Anniversary blend to last us an entire year. The french roast has that bold intense coffee flavor. The Anniversary blend is amazing, with a rich coffee flavor and smooth finish. Thanks Starbucks for the great coffee!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not usually a fan of Starbucks but this coffee was a gift. I’m so surprised! It definitely exceeded my expectations. The taste is reach and slightly fruity, not bitter as what I would normally expect from dark roasts coffee. I’m in love with this one and definitely recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife completely stole this coffee for herself. We both liked it and will be getting it on a regular basis. Tastes great and is smooth to drink. She even tried it in her single reusable dispenser and it came out perfect like a whole pot of coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice strong, bold and intense flavor without any acidity. The strong coffee smell is complimented by hints of Earthy aroma. The aftertaste lingers with sweetness. This produces a very enjoyable cup to drink.
