The K-Cup Challenge: Timothy’s Mexican Organic
It occurred to me that it’s been quite some time since I reviewed anything from Canadian coffee house, Timothy’s. So when Joe over at Shoffee.com mentioned that he just got his first shipment of the new Mexican Organic blend, I figured it was high time I reconnected with the company that made the first K-Cup [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Gloria Jean’s Passion Fruit Tea
Now that we’re slowly rolling into winter, I thought I’d raise my game a bit and make a more concerted effort to review a few more of the Tea offerings for Keurig Brewers. After all, Keurig owners know you can brew a lot more than coffee. Well, tea, and hot cocoa, so I guess it’s [...]
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: Tully’s Evergreen Blend
Tully’s Evergreen Blend is the last variety from my most recent round of samples from our good friend’s at Shoffee.com (hey Joe, I’m all out again). It was actually the first K-Cup from the lot that I ran through my brewer, but here I am over a month later, and I’m still not completely sure [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Celestial Seasonings SleepyTime Tea
Yeah, I know it’s been a while since we’ve rocked a K-Cup review here at Qwowi.com. And while I’m sure my excellent sponsor, Shoffee.com is probably starting to wonder if I’ve disappeared with the samples they sent, the truth is, I’ve been drinking so much SleepyTime Tea that I’ve finding it next to impossible to [...]
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 [...]
