In New Hampshire skiing so testing out the K-cup pods in the hotel room. I liked the Kirkland decaf from last night more that this Day to Day breakfast blend. This pod is chocolatety and close to having a nice caramel note but doesn't quite have the natural sweetness. Zero fruitiness at all.
It's slightly rubbery and has just a touch cloying mouthfeel. I'd guess it has some robusta mixed in. On the bright side it is fairly balanced and easy to drink without a lot of bitterness.Cupping Method:Used Poland Spring water in a 2.0 machine.

Day 3 of trying the hotel K-Cups. This one lands accurately as a French note and brings a solid balance of the smoke notes you would expect. It also has a good smooth mouthfeel though thinner than what you see in really good French roasts. Solid level of sweetness of caramel sweetness.
Unfortunately, It's quite rubbery in the lead palate, and that never quite goes away. Perhaps from Robusta. It's enough to put it in the mediocre hotel coffee category for me.
