Starbucks Sumatra Dark Roast Coffee Keurig K-Cups, 16 Count
- 16 Count Starbucks Sumatra Dark Roast Coffee Keurig K-Cups
- Orthodox Union Kosher
- No mess design protects from air, light and moisture
- Each K-Cup brews perfect individual servings
Like the tiger indigenous to Sumatra, this coffee is big, bold and captivating. No other coffee has its distinctive earthy aroma and lingering low notes. The heavy, full body and concentrated herbal spice flavors of this dark roast are the hallmarks of a great Sumatran coffee.
The Keurig single-cup brewing system uses a special packaging for coffee, tea and hot cocoa called K-Cup portion packs or “K-Cups”. Each K-Cup is an airtight, mini-brewer that locks out oxygen, light, moisture and humidity while locking in freshness and flavor. Simply insert the no mess K-Cup into the brewer and hit the brew button for a fresh-brewed, perfect cup of coffee or tea in under a minute.

Love Sumatra, but if you order Grande…,
Starbucks Sumatra has always been my favorite, so I was excited when the K-cup finally came out. Overall, they did a very good job. But one big caveat: If you get a Tall or Grande at Starbucks, one K-cup is not going to a good substitute. The largest setting on a Keurig platinum is 12oz, which is a Tall in Starbucks lingo. I’ve enjoyed this at 8oz, but too much of a sacrifice at larger settings. What this means is I typically need 2 K-cups for my morning fix. This can be an issue for any of the bold coffees, but since I’ve been a Starbucks Sumatra drinker for years, I notice it more—in taste and in my wallet. I’ll continue to buy this, but I’m also drinking Green Mountain Sumatran Reserve. Green Mountain Fair Trade Organic Sumatran Reserve Extra Bold (24 K-cups) KeurigIt’s cheaper and I can use the 10 oz setting.

|A little pricy, BUT great for the bold coffee drinker!,
My father is all about blod coffee, especially with the keuring. He drinks about 4 cups a day and before the keuring use to have an espresso maker and make a cup at night. I don’t think I’ve seen a day where he DOESN’T drink coffee lol
So when I heard about the Starbucks K-Cups coming out back in late October early November, I knew this was something I wanted to try. But instead of buying a box for myself, when I saw the flavors I knew I rather buy one for my father instead. Well I was skeptical about it after I brought it home, but low and behold he drank every single cup in a week! Beside this brand and the “Rev” bold coffee, I think this is a winner! My father HATES flavored coffee and so it was all about the good taste of something bold.
So if you know someone who drinks only blod coffee and maybe also loves Starbucks, but also has a Keuring, get them this coffee! This could actually be cheaper than going to Starbucks. Also Bed, Bath & Beyond sells the cups. If you’ve got a 20% off coupon, especially around the holidays and can’t afford it on Amazon, try there to maybe test run this flavor.

|Delicious dark coffee,
I’ve tried two of the starbucks k-cups, one a medium roast miss, and this, a wonderful dark and bold cup of coffee that manages to be dark without being bitter or burnt. The dark Sumatra is a winner for people who like their coffee tall dark and delicious.
