The Coffee Score review

Before coffee was complicated, great coffee was simply fresh, bold, and flavorful. Our team spent hands-on time with the The Original Donut Shop Keurig Single-Serve K-Cup Pods to see how it holds up against the rest of the capsules & pods we've tested.

Across repeated sessions we evaluated it on the categories that matter most: quality, consistency, value, and how likely we are to reach for it again. Ranked #98 of our top 184 capsules & pods — an outstanding medium (decaf) pick with bold notes, earning a 4.7★ average across 1,126 Amazon ratings.

Before coffee was complicated, great coffee was simply fresh, bold, and flavorful. The Original Donut Shop Decaf single serve K-Cup pods bring back the classic donut companion in decaf, with this ideally balanced brew of the highest quality Arabica beans...dunking is encouraged. Full-flavored and easy going, this medium roast blend embodies one of the best things in life - simply great coffee, without the caffeine. This is an extra bold variety, so each pod contains more 100% Arabica coffee than regular K-Cup pods.

From the roaster

  • Not too harsh, not too bitter - just right
  • Extra bold (contains more coffee than regular K-Cup pods)
  • Medium roast, decaffeinated coffee
  • Each K-Cup pod is made with 100% Arabica ground coffee, no artificial ingredients and certified Orthodox Union Kosher (U).
  • Ensure high-quality coffee every time with pods specially designed to work in Keurig brewers with exact grind and extraction

    Love the taste of this DECAF coffee

    I have to write a great review for these donut shop decaf Keurig K Cups because I was so pleasantly surprised how good they are.Recently due to stomach problems my GI specialist advised no more coffee only Decaf-I was distressed as I love my daily cup of extra strong coffee.

    Enjoyable mellow decaf coffee

    I wanted a nice mellow decaf K cup coffee for drinking in the evening, so I decided to try this brand. I brewed a 6 ounce cup and found it to be smooth and mellow, but a little weak. Next time I will press the strongest option on my Keurig machine.
