Green Mountain Coffee

Kenyan AA Extra Bold K-Cup

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce 6-ounce and 8-ounce serving sizes): Distinguished by a sweet, gently tart fruit note in aroma and cup that reads as a sort of crisp orange- and chocolate-toned blackberry - or call it "black currant," a term for this flavor note in vogue among coffee describers. Whatever we call it, it is a precious and agreeable sensation. The body is medium and the mouthfeel silky at a 6-ounce serving, slightly thinnish and lean at 8. Rich finish with good flavor persistence and excellent stability as the cup cools.

Beveo Coffee & Tea

Colombian Dark Roast (Beveo)

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As produced in a Beveo concentrate coffee machine at the setting netting the "strongest" ratio of coffee concentrate to water): Intense, round, very caramelly aroma with orange-toned citrus notes. In the cup medium in body but pleasantly silky/syrupy in mouthfeel, quite sweet, with wine like notes and continued suggestions of caramel and orange that turn explicitly toward chocolate as the cup cools. Sweet, rich, simple finish. Throughout the profile very faint hints of a woody character lurk, though they are only apparent with close - perhaps paranoid - attention.

Green Mountain Coffee

Kona 10% Blend Extra Bold K-Cup

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce 6-ounce and 8-ounce serving sizes): The aroma displays a simple, pure coffee character: tartly sweet, chocolate-toned fruit and a hint of flowers. In the cup medium but silky bodied at 6 ounces, slightly thinnish at 8. At both serving sizes quite sweet, gently tart, with continued delicate chocolate-toned fruit notes. Nice persistence of chocolate and flowers in the finish, although this delicate, lyric coffee stiffens and simplifies a bit as the cup cools.

Green Mountain Coffee

Espresso Blend Extra Bold K-Cup

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce 6-ounce and 8-ounce serving sizes): Considerably more impressive in a 6-ounce serving size than in an 8. At 6 ounces the aromatics in nose and cup are pleasingly buttery and round with a crisp roasty edge and hints of caramel and chocolate. At 8 ounces the mouthfeel is a tad lean and the aromatics thinnish.

Beveo Coffee & Tea

Premium Blend (Beveo)

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As produced in a Beveo concentrate coffee machine at the setting netting the "strongest" ratio of coffee concentrate to water): Intense, caramelly but crisp aroma with prune-like fruit and chocolate notes. In the cup medium in body but pleasantly silky/syrupy in mouthfeel; sweet in structure with distinct caramel notes and fruit that here seems more orange than prune. Walnut notes as the cup cools. Sweet, rich, simple finish. Throughout the profile very remote hints of a woody character lurk, though they are only apparent with close - perhaps paranoid - attention.

Beveo Coffee & Tea

Colombian Dark Decaf (Beveo)

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As produced in a Beveo concentrate coffee machine at the setting netting the "strongest" ratio of coffee concentrate to water): Very sweet-toned aroma, simple though pleasingly buttery and caramelly. In the cup medium in body but pleasantly silky/syrupy in mouthfeel, with simple caramel character and some floral and perhaps chocolate hints. Sweet finish with continued buttery notes. Hints of a woody character are hardly discernible when the cup is hot, though more explicit as it cools.

Green Mountain Coffee

PBS Blend K-Cup

Review Date: Apr 2007

(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule at a serving size of 6 ounces): Rather subdued aroma, caramelly, with hints of flowers and chocolate. In the cup medium-bodied but silky in mouthfeel, simple and bittersweet, with distant hints of flowers, walnut, chocolate perhaps. Simple, rich, rather short finish.
