One of the pleasures of a Keurig is that you can serve a friend or a guest a cup of coffee that will please them and their tastes, not just what you brew for yourself everyday. I happen to enjoy strong, deeply roasted blends (the kind that you usually find at the specialty coffee shops which seem to be all over the place now). However, not everyone shares my enjoyment of a strong, full-bodied cup of coffee.
I have many friends who often say something like “I love coffee but Starbucks is just too strong for me”. Enter Donut Blend. I have purchased many boxes of Coffee People’s Donut Shop Coffee and it is a favorite for many of my friends and family. When Timothy’s announced that they were coming out with the “Original Donut Blend” I got in line to try it. Here is my take on it:
It is certainly a little lighter than Coffee People’s version but the taste is more complex with clean, bright notes of spice and low acidity. Surprisingly, it reminds me a little of the Peaberry Kona coffee that I brought back from Hawaii. It is a perfect blend for those who like their coffee black or with just a little cream and still want it to taste like coffee. If someone drinks several cups a day I think that Timothy’s Donut Blend will not overwhelm their taste buds and will still taste fresh cup after cup. Mind you, I drink Newman’s Own Bold Blend on a regular basis and will continue to do so, but if I am having more than two cups (for those “special” mornings when nothing seems to go right) or if I am having a cup later in the day I will drink this one.
Just rating it on what I want in a coffee I give it four stars, but judging it for what it is (and not just what I like), it fully delivers and deserves five stars.
Coffee People Medium Extra Bold, Donut Shop K-Cups for Keurig Brewers (Pack of 50) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]
I currently use Coffee People’s version of Donut Shop and when I saw Timothy’s version I wanted to give it a try. This is not as full body as Coffee People’s version but I really like the smooth low acidity taste. If you don’t want a bold rich flavor I think you will love this smooth great tasting coffee as much as I do.
This is a great choice for real coffee lovers– a delicious light-medium roast flavor.
No burnt or charred flavor that you get from Dark Roast or French Roast coffees, which many people think are “stronger” but in actuality just taste stronger because the beans are over-roasted (burnt). It’s also easier to mask the flavor of crappy beans when you dark-roast them.
Good quality here for a single-use item. If you actually enjoy the taste of coffee and drink it black, like I do, you will love this blend. It’s so good.
