Crave Beverages Flavored Coffee Pods, Compatible with Keurig K-Cup Brewers, Butter Toffee, 100 Count

Update 1/23: Wow even years later the company delivers. I just bought a new coffee machine Ninja Dual Pro and there's a way to make a stronger brew with k-pods - so I tried Rich Brew setting with these in 6 oz, 8 oz and extra-strong Specialty Brew on 4 oz. First of all not all k-cups will have a compatible cup with my Ninja (those with hard plastic won't pierce at all). But these babies pierce wonderfully, you will hear a loud pop!This morning alone I had 3 cups of coffee, and really liked the flavors but now I guess my taste buds changed because I couldn't really discern the flavors all that much. They all sounds super exciting like "chocolate hazelnut"(my most favorite flavor in the world), but I couldn't really taste it. So, finally I decided to have one cup with no sweetener just so I can gauge the bitterness, and honestly even though it can't compete w French Press or Espresso, it's still nice and not overly acidic or bitter. A hint of bitterness but very smooth. The 8 oz setting is good enough, and hits the perfect spot - with 6 oz and 4 oz you immediately in bitter territory and I have to pour a ton of half-n-half which is more carbs than I want. Overall it's STILL an amazing coffee! Even though I didn't get lucky this time to get awesome flavors like raspberry or cherry chocolate, (I ordered a smaller batch) and got the dreaded cinnamon and toffee, I am super happy and had finished them all - they are not as strong anymore, not too acidic or bitter, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy again. I had a 40 pack but wish I gotten the 100 pack, the value is incredible and its totally worth it. They bring SO MUCH delight to my mornings!!!5 years ago: It’s damn good coffee!!! I received around 120 pods when was supposed to be 100, the flavors are amazing although I haven’t even tried them all. Pod quality is superb 5 stars, very sturdy and never broke. My favorite and strongest flavor is Hazelnut, it’s very caramel like , then Caramel less pronounced, then Vanilla is barely there. Also a blueberry was a pleasant surprise and I liked it. Maple and Pecan I can’t ever really tell the flavor as it’s so faint. Also to compare I bought a Green Mountain caramel vanilla pod, and to me this coffee is stronger, although the flavor only compares to Hazelnut in strength. I haven’t tried Cinnamon yet. Overall INCREDIBLE value for the money and strong coffee that’s awesome but not overpowering in terms of flavor. My least favorite flavor was Toffee, it’s the most artificial yucky flavor that I just couldn’t stand and it’s a strong one like hazelnut. But overall LOVE the coffee, and it’s better than Green mountain so I absolutely recommend it!!!! What an amazing find !!!

Good variety of coffee options for a good price. We sometimes prefer the Keurig rather than coffee grounds for our coffee pot, this pack provided a good variety of flavors. They were a good quality, seemed to be fresh, and we enjoyed trying different flavors!

I ordered the 40 count sampler that included various flavors. I had 4 of a raspberry flavor that I don't see on the photo or listing so I think the actual flavors you receive will vary. Other listings also list random flavors not mentioned (like choco cherry) so don't count on receiving what you see listed, which may be good or maybe not. I didn't care for the raspberry flavor so getting 10% of my order for a flavor not listed wasn't great. (There's a hilarious review on here for the raspberry flavor and beavers and it's origins that I fully agree with!). I don't usually like fruit flavors which is why i ordered this sampler which was listed as heavy on the pecan and toffee flavors.For many years I've bought and used flavored creamers in plain coffee. I'm learning that many of the creamers have chemical ingredients so I'm trying to wean myself off their use. I thought I'd try some flavored coffees to drink black which is why I bought these. Crave doesn't list the ingredients for the flavoring on the package.Overall they are a mixed box (literally as they just come loose in an amazon box). Some flavors are better than others, of course. I did not find them to be strong in coffee flavor and not strong in specialty flavor. I would say they are medium at best. It is hard to find strong coffees in k-cups and so I don't hold it against these but these are definitely not going to turbo boost your day with strength if you like over 8 oz of brew. I'm about halfway through the sampler and the only flavor I have removed to give away is the raspberry.The cups are super cute in design. They are bright and all show a woman with a cup of coffee and a cartoon smile on the cup. They are different colors according to flavor. I have not had any problem with them fitting into my coffee maker's Kcup holder. My local stores are selling other brand coffee Kcups at close to 80 cents a piece or more. This Crave sample was half that price and I appreciate the savings. It's even less if you subscribe and save.Who is this ideal for? I'd say it's ideal for an Airbnb, VRBO, STR or bed and breakfast situation. The price is right. It's an assortment of flavors. And they will look super cute in your Kcup holder or display. And if guests take them home unused it won't break the bank. It is also a good purchase for someone who wants to try the various flavors that are available by themselves. Also pretty good for keeping on hand a mixed sampler for company.The price was great. The flavors were YMMV (your mileage may vary). You will probably find a couple you like and a couple you don't, but that's the whole point of a sampler. The listing says they are Kosher and that they have 0 calories and 0 sweeteners although there's nothing in the box that lists ingredients. It says Arabica beans are used. In the Q&A the manufacturer (Two Rivers Coffee) says there is 120mg of caffeine per 8 oz cup. They also say in Q&A that the ingredients are "100% Arabica coffee beans and artificial flavoring" They also say "Artificial flavors are considered a trade secret. They fall under the category of GRAS- Generally recognized as safe for Human consumption by the FDA." so take that as you will...Overall I would say these are GOOD. Some are very good, some are meh. They are not my holy grail but I will keep them in stock in our vacation place that we airbnb out.

I love these flavors! Light and not over powering, coffee is not bitter so no need for me to add sugar like my BJ’s brand name coffee I usually get. Good caffeine boost without the jitters and again I can’t stress enough how good the flavors are! Simply must try! I was not thrilled it seemed the pods were just thrown in the box and all mixed up. My OCD could not handle the chaos so I had to organize the pods by flavor. No big deal as long as it is not cheap bitter coffee. Great value for the price!

These are heavy on certain flavors and light on the blueberry. I wish it also contained some peanut butter cup, some cherry, some cheesecake and in general a broader spectrum of sweet flavors. I think there's enough caffeine in these and the flavors you do get are tasty. And the price is still somewhat reasonable.If I could change one minor thing, apart from a broader spectrum of flavors, and more blueberry which happens to be my favorite flavor though I wouldn't want a box of only blueberry, I would say the picture of the crazy looking guy in a range of colors on the packaging is the number one comment I get from guests. It's never complimentary. "Weird" is a typical comment. But the coffee is good.

Sick of that plain coffee, try these, great taste, great variety

A nice mild flavor, not too strong.

These are clearly built to make small cups of coffee. I make 12oz cups and the coffee smells great but the coffee seems super watered down so you can barely taste the flavour. If you have 8oz cups I’m sure you could taste the flavours better.

I am on my third order of these k cups and I will for sure keep ordering. There are some I like more than others, but none that I dislike. My husband doesn’t like the blueberry but the rest are totally bangers! Only flavoured coffee that I have found that’s actually a reasonable price and I love the large amount of them. We drink a lot of coffee so buying boxes of 12 really isn’t reasonable for us. As long as the price doesn’t go through the roof, we will definitely keep buying these!

These are so wonderful. Variety of flavours, and so far, all flavours are tasty.
