FINALLY A COFFEE WE AGREE ON!

My husband and I have polar opposite taste buds and we have argued about coffee for 11 years! I b ought this to make myself espresso at home and thought nothing of it. One morning my husband ran out of his usual junk coffee and used mine! At first I was angry! But when he replenished my stock and told me he liked it i was in heaven!! Now I dont have to make two different pots of coffee ever again! And this is the best roast around hands down!! We will be happily coffeed after from now on!!

Rich and delicious #ad

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the rich and delicious flavor of Starbucks Espresso Roast. This is a dark roast coffee with notes of molasses and caramel. I brewed it as a pour over and found the taste to be flavorful and paired well with my almond milk. I love it! #freesample

cappuccinno or "brewed" cup

I use the pods either for espresso longo-based cappuccino (with Nespresso frother) or 6-7 ounce taller brew to which I add a half ounce of half-and-half. The flavor and body is so much better than any Keurig coffee. I like that I can control the amount of coffee and brew according to what I'm in the mood for.

Just my liking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love a nice bold espresso that gives you that extra jolt no matter the time of the day it is. The Starbucks espresso roast ground coffee gave me just that. I love the smell and that even though it was ground, it taste very fresh.

Bold and striking to wake you up

Personally this was a little too strong and a bit harsh in the flavor but if you like bold coffee this will give you the boost you need. I paired it with Carmel syrup and a splash of Heavy Cream to soften the intensity and create a sweet and creamy blend. Delicious with a Toffee Doodle Cookie

I love this coffee But...

I love this coffee. I bought it 4times during 5month. But the order in this time was terrible. 1. shipping date for14days(They were not any notice to me.) 2. Star bonus : Ordinary this coffee(2pack, 192pod) is earning16 stars, but they gave only 10stars. My 6 stars was missing. This purchase is so bad...

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 it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of my favorite ground coffee roast to make for my morning coffee. I have this daily, with milk and creamer. It has a strong flavor and so smooth. This is also one of the roasts that Starbucks uses for their espresso and I love all the espresso drink. This makes the perfect latte.

Make it black!

Drink only pure coffee unadulterated by any additives and or flavors. Make it black (and yet, still, baristas will ask if I want to leave any room for cream!?) SER is an excellent brew to consume black. It is the only coffee my wife will drink. (Everything else gives her a headache). Keep on brewing Starbucks!

Convenient

I use 2 shots of espresso, classic syrup and milk to make a cold drink. Or 1 shot espresso and 6ounces of milk for a warm drink in the mornings. The pods are extremely convenient in helping me make these great wake up drinks. Buying them in bulk makes it cheaper. I like them.
