    Great coffee option

    Great coffee at a great price. The strength is not too weak and not too strong. The taste is great and it goes down smoothly.

    Good tasting coffee.

    This is pretty good coffee. Not too strong, not too weak. I put creamer in it, which gives good flavor and I enjoy it.

    Tastes just like Donut shop but much cheaper

    Tastes like the donut shop pods but much cheaper and actually comes packaged correctly instead of removed from the packaging and thrown into a box . Highly recommended
