My New Coffee

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starbucks Expresso Roast is now my go to coffee. To begin, I’ve been looking for a coffee that’s strong and gives me a pick me up. This coffee does that. It has a nice taste and is enjoyable. It has a pleasant smell. Can be enjoyed with friends in the afternoon and/or after dinner. I would recommend the coffee to friends who are looking for a rich dark coffee. Thank you for the free sample.

Burned, bitter, oily. Terrible coffee...

Recently bought in a local convenience store (basically lack of alternative in the current crisis, only whole bean coffee in the shop). Couldn't go though more than a 1/4 before I binned it. Needed to clean my mill as the smell and taste stuck... Absolutely and shockingly terrible. It made me feel sick. Poor coffee quality covered by over roasting the beans. Very dissapointed.

Verisimo Dark Roast Espresso

I have been a satisfied consumer for many years, however, the new packaging makes it too difficult to tell the difference between the regular and decaf pods. Also, both types of pods seem to be weaker than before. I have to use more pods than I have in the past. I can't seem to make a decent espresso at home with my brand new verisimo espresso machine that I purchased thinking my old one may have been the problem. I don't know what you have done to the pods, but I liked it before. Have you put less product in each pod?

Espresso

The capsules are great. Taste is excellent. I had a problem with some of the cups of coffee when about 3/4 through the brewing process a change in sound in the machine and grinds started coming in with the remaining water. Don't know if it was a capsule problem or a machine issue.

Love my verisimo! Beware of subscription!

I make a white mocha peppermint latte or white mocha latte. I put 1 1/2 cups of organic milk in measuring cup, microwave for 2 mins and use a good whipping wand to make a good amount of froth. But 2 shots of espresso in w syrups. Use spoon to hold back froth. Stir mild in w other ingredients, stir, add the froth on top. This latte to me is better than buying it.

FREE-Espresso Roast Ground Coffee

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Espresso Roast Ground at home coffee in my reusable Keurig pod. The Aroma was wonderful, the look was dark the flavor was robust. It was in all a great cup of coffee made at home. Would Recommend for anyone who likes a darker more bitter coffee. BEST #freesample EVER

Versatile Blend

I guess I've become accustomed to it's taste at Starbuck's retail shops and enjoy it at home often. I brew it mostly in a home espresso machine and it seems to go nicely with milk (the American way to have an espresso). On our fishing boat the crew and I also like it as a brewed drip coffee.

Great flavor as standard brew

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Multiple family members tried the #freesample of Starbucks espresso roast ground coffee both in its own and in a mocha-style flavor combination. Everyone enjoyed the robust taste. My spouse has an espresso maker and says the grounds are not fine enough for the machine. We’d only brew in a regular coffee maker.

My Favorite Starbuck by FAR!!!!! YUM!!!!

Espresso Roast is just the right balance of flavors. The carmel, smokey taste is bold yet does not have any bite to it. I add milk to mine to try copying a Starbuck Latte plain. I wish Starbuck would sell in K-cups the espresso and milk --Latte set as they do in their coffee maker cups..
