K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Tree Hugger
Before we get down to the actual review, there’s a few things I’d like to say. First; Happy New Year to everyone. Second; Welcome new Keurig owners, and K-Cup lovers who are discovering Qwowi Coffee for the first time. Thanks for the e-mails you’ve sent me, and I’m certainly glad you’re enjoying the site. Finally, [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People’s Santa’s Buzz
I’ve been dragging my heals on this review for a while now. I don’t know if it’s a lack of Christmas spirit that has prevented me from reviewing this holiday seasonal, or if the simple fact that my day job boss, and my full-time wife (with her never ending stream of home renovation projects) have simple kept [...]
New K-Cups Coming Soon
For K-Cup lovers craving something new, I have some very good news for you. My friends at Green Mountain and Shoffee have some new samples on their way to me, I should have everything by the end of this week, which means you can expect reviews to begin trickling out early next. What makes these [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Jet Fuel XBold
Some months back a reader emailed me for my thoughts on Coffee People’s Jet Fuel. At the time I was making my way through a Coffee People sampler box from one of my K-Cup Challenge sponsors. As I explained to my reader at the time, I hadn’t tried Jet Fuel yet, but since it was [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Cowboy Coffee
Once my life’s mission, it’s been over a month since my last K-Cup Challenge post (this sort of feels like a confession). I’m sure my friend’s over at Shoffee.com (the guys who hooked me up with my latest round of samples) are wondering just what the heck is going on over here at Qwowi.com. Metaphorically [...]
Qwowi Answers the Question: What is the Best K-Cup?
Yesterday marked 8 full months since I started the K-Cup Challenge (that’s right, it’s .75 years old). Granted, 8 months is a fairly arbitrary time frame to celebrate, but I figure since Thursday (which today happens to be) is an unusual day for a celebration (other than Thanksgiving and the occasional football game), and 48 [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Organic (Extra Bold)
The last of my samples from our friends at OneGreatCup brings me to Coffee People Organic, which, from what I gather is the only 100% Certified Organic in the Coffee People lineup. That may or may not matter to you (personally, at 6:30 AM, organic is about the last thing on my mind), but for [...]
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: 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: Coffee People Wake-Up Call (Extra Bold)
My sample of Coffee People’s Wake-Up Call was provided by K-Cup Challenge sponsor OneGreatCup.Net. If you like Coffee People coffee, like this review (and want to support my sponsors), or need any sort of K-Cup or Keurig Home brewer supplies, Ken Rhodes, and the rest of the team at OneGreatCup can hook you up with [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Berry Blast Extra Bold
As you may remember, I didn’t mind Green Mountain’s seasonal Raspberry Rhapsody blend one little bit. It has a nice raspberry flavor that doesn’t overpower the coffee flavor. Most importantly there’s not a trace of that acidic feeling burn that many flavored coffees leave in the back of your throat. All that said, I still don’t consider [...]
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: Coffee People Kafe-Lua
Normally I try and rotate my K-Cup Challenge posts between my sponsors so that one doesn’t get any more attention than another. It seems like the fair thing to do, and I hope it keep my sponsors reasonably happy. That’s all well and good, but when things go horribly awry, as they did with my [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Chai Coffee
My sample of Coffee People Chai Coffee was provided by Ken Rhodes and the good people at OneGreatCup.net. Ken sent me a few boxes of Diedrich, Coffee People, and Gloria Jean’s to try. The Chai Coffee blend came out of a Coffee People flavored coffee sampler, and gives me the opportunity to sample a few [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People French Roast
Qwowi’s sample of Coffee People French Roast was provided by K-Cup Challenge sponsor, 1 Great Cup, and while I don’t want to reveal too much too early, I will ask that you don’t hold it against them.
You may recall that I really enjoyed our sample of Coffee People’s Donut Shop Coffee, so I had high [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Donut Shop Coffee
This review of Coffee People Donut Shop Coffee (Extra Bold) is sponsored by Joe Simonovich and our friends at Shoffee.com. I had actually asked Joe for a different variety of K-Cup, but since my original request was on backorder, he went ahead and sent me a box of his very popular Donut Shop Coffee from [...]
