I bought a pound of the Blonde roast Veranda blend, whole-bean, and really enjoyed it. I appreciate the lighter roast and the relatively low acidity, which makes it great to enjoy almost anytime of the day. There is a slight nuttiness and cocoa flavor that you can taste in the brew itself, though it's subtle and can almost be missed if you aren't paying attention to your palate. The only thing I can really comment on this blend is that you should watch out for how many cups you down in a day - it becomes too easy to drink this stuff casually! Great anytime.

This used to be my favorite coffee. I always loved the smell and taste of it. But something has changed. Now when I buy a bag and open it, it has a really pungent chemical smell and it tastes a lot more acidic. That smell doesn't go away either. I keep the grounds in a stainless steel and glass coffee container and every time I open it I'm hit with the scent of chemicals. I thought maybe I just got an old bag. But the last 3 bags I've bought were the same. Please don't change a good thing. Bring back the mellow malted milk and chocolate flavors.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the strong aroma. Dark roasted and low acidity. As it says the tasting note is dark coca and carmelized sugar, there’s a hint of sweetness. Also love the packing, easy to seal and store. Recommend to coffee lovers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have family breakfast at my house weekly. When deciding on the coffee they wanted next, this coffee was the unanimous decision. Paired with their favorite Creamer it's amazing!!! I love how the house smells when it's brewing. My teen daughters fight over who's getting the first cup. It's definitely a family favorite

Was never a drinker of the regular Starbucks coffee because I did not like the strong, bitter, ashtray-like taste. I always opted for a flavored espresso drink instead. Decided to try this when it came out and I am glad I did. Not too strong; not bitter and overall, a wonderful flavor! The blonde roast is delicious! It is my new regular! Please don't ever drop this delightful coffee from your menu.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to try and bring the wonderful flavor of Starbucks home. The Vernanda Blend was very good. The flavor is very bold and wakes your taste buds up right from the first sip. Yet feels smooth when drinking it and the flavor is outstanding. I'm was caught completely off guard by this product and look forward to trying others similar to this one

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Verona Ground coffee is very smooth for a dark roast. It is not bitter, as I can taste a hint of caramelized sugar and cocoa. I am very pleased with my bold cup of coffee, and I will continue to drink it every morning.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starbuck has alway been my first choice for coffee flavours.. this one is as great as other with rich coffee flavor with a dark cocoa texture. As coffee lover and who always have different flavours and blends on the shelf this one is a nice addition.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to work at a Starbucks, so I know firsthand how expensive it can be, especially if you have to go every day to get a cup of coffee. These Kcups really saved me money in the long run because even when I’m running late, I still have time to just make my coffee at home because these are so quick and also full of flavor!
