This brews a truly bold cup of coffee. I like my coffee really strong. The darker the roast the better! Double Diamond has become a new favorite. As a reference I also really like Green Mountain Dark Magic, Tully's Italian Roast and Starbucks French Roast. I would say that Double Diamond is an even darker roast than those three.
One of my misgivings with Keurig coffee is that I never tasted a strong enough brew in my travels. When I got a 2.0 maker as a gift, I got to sample a variety and found the Green Mountain Dark Magic coffee to be the best tasting of all the samples I have tasted, enough for me to order the 90 pack for good measure. I like a bold coffee taste, not just "burnt roasted beans" but honest to gosh flavor so this is my pick.
My favorite k-cup with its bold, but not bitter, flavor. I don't like hot, colored water. This gives a strong brew, and it tastes great. I drink my cofree black. If I have to add cream to make coffee palatable, then I won't buy it.
This is the best deal around on this magnificent coffee. For $.54 a cup, you can't beat it. So, great flavor an great deal. Awesome. Also, all the pods have been totally fine, not coming apart, unlike one reviewer noted.
This is our favorite coffee when we use our Keurig. We have tried so many different brands and/or flavors but we always come back to Nantucket Blend. It is so smooth tasting, no bitterness at all and just perfect for strength and I love the aroma when its brewing. We now purchase through Subscribe and Save, which saves us quite a bit of money. You just have to try it if you haven't. I'm thinking you will love❤ it too!☕
This is the favorite coffee of both my husband and I, as we love Strong Bold coffee, especially in the morning. It's the best STRONG coffee by far of the many coffees we've tried, and that's a lot of different types of coffee. I receive this on auto ship from Keurig every 6 weeks, but yet run out before the next shipment, so being a Prime member, I can order it from Amazon and receive it in 2 days which I absolutely love. I like all different types of coffee, but when we first wakeup this is our go to coffee. Its strong with a great taste without tasting like old burnt, bitter coffee with a bad after taste. If you're a fan of a Strong Bold Dark coffee, then I would definitely recommend this as your first cup of Joe. I enjoy drinking coffee late into the morning and sometimes in the evening. If you don't like Strong Dark coffee then I would say try something different. I will continue to order this unless they do away with it!

Since I got a Keurig a bunch of years ago, my biggest problem was finding k-cups that did not provide a cup of coffee flavored water if you used anything above the 5 ounce button. There were a few that fit the bill but I noticed at the years went by that it seemed those coffees were changed in some way and are just not as strong as I remember them. The closest thing I could find to strong coffee was the Barista French or Italian roast. Those are very good.
A friend found these and told me they produce the strongest coffee he's ever had. So I ordered a box and boy he was not kidding. I make this coffee on the largest (9.5 ounces I think) on my machine and even if I leave the cup there and hit the 5 ounce button to top it off, it still gives me a seriously strong cup. I love it! Now I just have to hope that the company doesn't decide to employ cost cutting moves and lessen the amount of coffee in the cup.
I was skeptical because I didnt like some of Green Mountains other flavors but this was exceptional!
I have been on a K-Cup journey of sorts to find the best K-Cup coffee out there. I have tried many many brands and flavors, french, iIalian, Colobian, etc. Starbucks, Donut shop, Eight O'clock you name it.
This is probably the best K-Cup coffee I have had if you like dark roasts. Its FULL of flavor, even in a bigger mug (this is sometimes a problem as it can have a watered down flavor if you pour more than 8 oz). Its nice and dark but without the "bite" at the end, meaning not much acidity.
I had to purchase the BIG pack (really 6x12 packs) of this to get it and boy am I glad I did. I brought this to one of our offices for work and upon pouring a cup a co-worker said "wow, now THATS a quality cup of coffee" and as a side note: we live in Seattle - home of the coffee snobs.
If you are a Dark Roast fan, do yourself a favor and buy this. You will not regret it!
I Love strong coffee. The kind you get if you are sitting in a cafe in Majorca. K cups are the only way for my husband and I to handle coffee. He likes his coffee to look like tea. I don't like it if I can see the bottom of my mug. This is a good strong cup of coffee for those of us who love the taste of coffee and don't want to drink a quart of water (just kidding hubby).
Green Mountain is a company founded on sustainability and promotion of small farm businesses and locally owned companies. They promote Green Earth policies and have contracts with many local farmers in Columbia.
Now, having praised the company's green initiatives and local enterprise, we also happen to love the coffees. The breakfast blend is on the lighter side but flavorful. Wife likes it because it's light, but when I make a cup for myself, I use the "strong" setting on my Keurig and it comes out very flavorful. Great cup of coffee from a company that's being kind to the small business farmer and being good to the Earth. It's a win/win situation! Highly recommended.
I am FULLY awake like all you coffee lovers out there and I have a love hate relationship with my Keurig coffeemaker on a lot of levels. I love the extreme convenience of the fresh one-cup-at-a-time Keurig coffeemaker but have never been happy with the K-cup selection of bold and extra bold coffees. All too weak for me. But I was drinking Turkish coffee when I was eight, and then espresso after that. I like it bold. So I have tried every single Extra Bold variety of K-cup on the market with mixed results. I found the Black Tiger dark roast to be an improvement but felt it had a burnt, flat aftertaste. Timothy's Midnight Magic & Rainforest Espresso were also pretty good but I had problems with many of the K-cups clogging.
FINALLY Green Mountain got it right with this one! If you love the taste of espresso and also find that most coffees are too weak for you, this is the one to try. I use it with the water at the middle of the dial or the second to smallest setting and it's perfect!
Another very good K-Cup is Green Mountain's Dark Magic. I stick to ordering both of these now, but if I had to choose only one, this would be my favorite. It's fierce, delicious, potent and wakes you up!
If you drink a lot of coffee, it's inevitable that you will get some faulty K-cups that clog and leak. One advantage of ordering directly from Keurig online is they WILL replace bad K-cups without question. I have had to contact them twice about some boxes with problems and they immediately sent a replacement box. You might want to compare prices.
Give this one a try. I'm on my second box of 96 and will continue to order here. If you REALLY love espresso get a NESPRESSO machine. The coffee pods are gourmet divine and only cost a little bit more than K-cups. The machine is fabulous, easy to clean and takes home coffee brewing to a sinful level.
