Coffee People K-Cup Extra Bold Wake Up Call Bold, 24-Count Boxes (Pack of 2)

Since getting my Keurig brewer for Christmas, I've been experimenting with different K-Cups. I like a rather strong cup of coffee and I found that the standard K-Cups generally produce too weak a brew for my tastes. I have chosen to use extra bold K-Cups since they contain about a third more coffee.

Wake Up Call has definitely become one of my favorite brews. It's definitely a strong brew, but it doesn't have the bitterness that a French or Italian roast has. It has a rich, slightly smoky flavor with a great finish. Coffee People produce a very good product - an equally good extra bold Coffee People variety is called "Donut Shop Coffee". Unfortunately it's not available yet from Amazon but can be purchased elsewhere.

The only reason I rated Wake Up Call 4 stars instead of 5 is that the two boxes I purchased from Amazon were several months outdated (probably should've sent them back). About 10 of the 50 K-Cups did not brew properly - they clogged up the brewer and gave me a cup full of coffee grinds. No other variety of K-Cups has ever done this to me, and I don't know if it was just a bad batch or was the result of being past the expiration date. In any case, if you order these from Amazon be sure to check to make sure you receive fresh product.

Ordered this by mistake, go figure and it was the best we tried so far! Rich flavor.

I've tried all the different brands and blends in my office but this is the one all my clients choose and want to know where and how to get it.

This has become our absolute favorite k-cup. It has a bold flavor without any bitterness. In fact, we have noticed a slightly sweet finish which balances the boldness perfectly.

Bright, bold flavor without bitterness. Yum! Only gave it 5 stars because I like cowboy coffee or the Costa Rican stuff made in a special coffee sock best.
