The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Vanilla Avalanche
My sample of Coffee People Vanilla Avalanche came out of a Coffee People flavored coffee sampler that was sent to me by Qwowi sponsor OneGreatCup. This is the 4th and final review born from that sampler. For those who haven’t been keeping track; I DESPISED Chai Coffee so much I’m actually thinking of using the [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Green Mountain 10% Kona (Extra Bold)
It seems like forever ago since I received a shipment of samples from my friends at Vermont’s own Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, but here I am still reviewing samples from that original batch (although they have sent some of their season stuff in between). Sufficed to say, I’m keeping busy, but it’s a labor of [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Obama Blend
What a decision I had to make; a decision we all have to make, I suppose. I was checking out K-Cup Challenge sponsor, Shoffee.com when I saw them; two new offerings from Coffee People for the election season; Obama blend, and McCain blend. Now when it comes to Obama vs. McCain, we don’t really have [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Green Mountain Dark Magic Decaf (Extra Bold)
It took a few months, but we’ve finally arrived at the last K-Cup Challenge review for initial batch of samples my friends at Green Mountain Coffee. I expect this one will move quickly, not because I don’t have a lot to say about Dark Magic Decaf, but mostly because there’s not a whole lot I [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Green Mountain Pumpkin Spice (Limited Edition)
If leaving home before sunrise wasn’t enough of an indication that the best days of summer are far behind me, my friends at Green Mountain have decimated any lingering delusions I may have had. When Green Mountain breaks out their limited edition Pumpkin Spice K-Cups, you pretty much know it’s just about time to put [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Caribou Blend Decaf
Having never been too much of coffee drinker before I discovered the joys of Keurig coffee makers, I was largely of the opinion that decaf coffee was pretty much pointless. I mean, if it’s not going to wake you up in the morning, why bother? Over the last few months, however, I’ve found myself craving [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Black Tiger (Extra Bold)
Despite sitting on small mountain of K-Cups provided by our friends at OneGreatCup, I’ve been a little slow in reviewing K-Cups since my return from Alaska now over two weeks ago. It’s not that I haven’t been drinking coffee, in fact I’ve been drinking more than ever, but being on the wrong end of a [...]
The K-Cup Challenge - Gloria Jean’s Cappuccino
Feeling warm and fuzzy about Gloria Jean’s Coffee as a result of their Black Gold blend, I asked Qwowi sponsor, Shoffee.com to send me a box of GJ’s Cappuccino K-Cups to sample, and of course, review for the K-Cup Challenge.
After panning the GJ Special Blend, and Hazelnut varieties, Gloria Jean’s Black Gold was a very [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Gloria Jean’s Black Gold (Extra Bold)
This makes the 3rd review of Gloria Jean’s Coffee from a sampler sent to me by K-Cup Challenge sponsor OneGreatCup. I have thus far, to put it mildly, been less than enamored with the Gloria Jean’s brand. If nothing else I’ve learned that maybe K-Cup variety packs are the way to go because, when the [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Green Mountain Summer Symphony
The 2nd of two special limited edition summer blends the kind folks at Green Mountain Coffee Roasters sent me, the Fair Trade Organic Summer Symphony blend, is more of a traditional light roast than the previously reviewed Raspberry Rhapsody. You won’t be overpowered by fruit aromas and fruit flavors. Instead, what I’ve got in front [...]
