Amazon Brand - Solimo Variety Pack Light and Medium Roast Coffee Pods (Kona, Breakfast, Donut), Compatible with Keurig 2.0 K-Cup Brewers, 100 Count

I roast my own beans...have for 24 years now...so I am picky. I don't use pods much, but I bought these for my roommate who does. Flavor matters to me, so I always brew "low and slow". Low temperature so I don't extract all the bitterness, and Slower (stronger) brew to increase seep time to extract more of that un-bittered flavor...and I usually only brew 4-6 oz at a time. This is what I recommend for ANY pod. Longer time is OK if it has more grounds to compensate, but there is a limit, as brewing can cause streams of water inside the pod, so brewer design matters since pods are pods (more number of injectors is a HUGE plus, BTW). So, I was not worried when reviews state that the flavor goes away after 8 or 10 ounces...this is always the case. In fact, it's more likely the case with better beans, since better beans don't have as much bitterness to extract, so when you pull a typical bean for a long draw, you get additional horrible flavors. EXPERIMENT YOURSELF: do a 12 oz pull, and continually change out cups so that you only get ~ 2 oz per cup. By the 8th oz of any coffee, you tongue will be cringing. ALL THREE were smooth, with pleasant flavor. Sure, the flavor was not "bold" by my standards, but it also was not weak. In fact, it was pretty good for a mild-medium roast, and on my scale of coffee flavor, that is better than most you will encounter. Certainly better than Starbuck's or Peet's, both of whom have perfected there roasts and bean selections to give a lot of flavor for a long draw. No coffee connoisseur would ever call their coffees complex or pleasantly aromatic, or anything better than minimally OK. So, I'm not saying these are wonderful coffees. There are only the best Pods I've encountered yet, and a great bang for the buck for someone who brews small cups.

I first bought this when Amazon put it on sale for half what I paid for it this time. I expected the price to go up after the introduction of it, but was hoping they'd continue to offer it at a better price than what it's become. Still, we've tried just about every nationally familiar brand of K-cups out there, and all of the three grinds in this package easily stand up to the biggest brand names you can think of. I don't even have a favorite; they're all good. Just pick one up, pop it into the machine, and I know it's going to be good. Something else: a LOT of the national brands sold by the Great-Big-Warehouse-Stores-I-Won't-Mention have raised their prices to close to that of this product, but have reduced the number of K-cups to 94, sometimes 96. Apparently they believe people will continue to buy less product for more money. This is a full 100-count box of assorted coffee pods, delivered to the door, decent price, good flavor. I'll take it.

A solid choice if you’re looking for an affordable everyday coffee option. The flavors are smooth and mild, making them easy to drink without being too strong or bitter. It’s a nice variety to switch things up without committing to just one flavor. For the price, the quality is better than expected. The pods work well in a Keurig and brew consistently. While they may not have the depth of more expensive brands, they’re perfect for morning coffee or when you want something light and simple. Overall, these coffee pods are a great value and a budget-friendly option that still delivers good taste.

This pack offers a great selection, featuring Kona, Breakfast, and Donut blends, so there’s something for every mood and time of day. The Kona blend has a smooth, rich flavor that I absolutely love for my morning cup. The Breakfast blend is perfect for a lighter start, while the Donut blend adds a nice hint of sweetness—great for an afternoon pick-me-up. Each pod brews perfectly in my Keurig 2.0, with no issues at all. With 100 pods in the box, it’s an excellent value for the quality you get. I appreciate having a variety to choose from without having to buy multiple boxes. Overall, I highly recommend the Solimo Variety Pack for anyone looking to enjoy different coffee experiences at home!

A good variety of great tasting coffee and a really great price! Will definitely be buying again.

This light medium variety pack is our go to morning brew. We start off our day with Kona blend (purple). My second cup is donut blend (pink) with a splash of cream. Later morning is breakfast blend ( blue) that tastes great either way, black or with cream. They have distinctive flavors and are very reliable in their flavor profiles over time. I love this set, smooth and delicious.

HOLD ON -- before you diss this brand based on my review, the Solimo DARK roast is definitely worth purchasing. Now on to the light and medium pods. Simply put, they were too light and to me, tasteless. If you truly like a VERY light roast, these may suit your taste. Usually I can put light roast pods on the lowest Keurig water selection and be satisfied. Not with these. Won't be purchasing again -- but will be purchasing its stronger variety pack version.

this is the lighter counterpart to the dark variety pack and it's the one i reach for more often. kona, breakfast blend and donut shop are all on the mild, smooth end, so there's no bitterness and nothing that needs a lot of cream to be drinkable. the kona is the standout for me, mellow and a bit sweet. donut shop is the crowd pleaser that everyone recognizes. breakfast blend is the easy default. having three that are all in the same general lane means you're not gambling on getting something you don't want when you grab a pod half asleep. 100 count at this price is well under what the branded pods cost and the quality gap is small. brews cleanly, no leaking or grounds in the cup. good everyday coffee to keep stocked, especially if you prefer lighter roasts.
