Don Francisco's French Roast Single Serve Coffee Pods, Dark Roast, 24ct

Beyond good it’s magnificent to the taste great quality too

REVIEWED ITEM: Don Francisco's French Dark Roast Coffee Pods - 24 Count I recently this past year bought my very first Keurig machine. This came after more than a decade of swearing never to become the caffeine fiend that my mother had been in life when it came to coffee drinking. Until I tried Don Francisco k-cups, drinking coffee was basically a daily energizer and focus-enhancer to me. I never thought that you'd actually be able to distill artisanal flavor and roast-mastery into a mass-produced k-cup pod. DF coffee is an absolute pleasure to drink. While I suppose you COULD gulp down a mug of it to help with the mad dash in to work, I personally feel like this product is best (and meant to be) enjoyed, as a coffee maker who is actually PROUD of what they produce would prefer. I've tried numerous other brands. Bottom tier brands taste like sludge, not coffee to me. Starbucks, Green Mountain, whatever that liquid is that McDonalds dares call coffee, Dunkin, gas station coffee, etc. These are all no-goes for me. Tier 2 is like the Maxwell House, Folgers, Kauai, Peet's, etc. Some of these are OK or tolerable, but usually cost too much for what it is, or the flavors are just too sweet or too chemical. When you hit Tier 3 coffee, this is where the flavor and roast magic really starts to occur. This happens with brands like Brooklyn Beans, Black Rifle Coffee Company, Copper Moon, Tully's, New England Coffee, Angelino's, Deathwish, Martinson, etc. But reigning supreme over all of these is Don Francisco's coffee. Every single flavor I've tried so far, even the ones I didn't think I'd like, have proven spectacular. The French Roast in particular was so good, it switched my preference from Colombian and Italian roasts to this richly flavorful, faintly chocolatey taste that I never thought I'd like in my coffee. Cheers to Don Francisco and their k-cups. While I do keep a couple other brands around for company's sake, this coffee maker has become the mainstay of all java production in my kitchen.

Product is good as always but was not shipped in protective mailing envelope or shipping box as in the past. Please ship it that way in the future, as you used to. Thanks.

Although it’s Missing the French Roast aroma and flavor, overall is a good coffee, comparable to Starbucks and Peets of same roast at a better price. Will see if the flavor remains consistent through the remaining pods, if it does, is worth buying it again

This is a great tasting coffee and if you need a kick this is it!!

Good tatse

It's a smooth, dark roast, but I was not a fan of the taste.

Exceeds taste above McCafé.
