Cupping Method:I grabbed this pod awhile back, I think from a Marriott in Portland, ME with a K-cup.
I got stuck in the basement due to some work on the house, away from my espresso machine and pourover. And I was cold, and it's afternoon, so a decaf sounded good and I'd been meaning to test this one, if nothing else to exercise my K-Cup testing setup. I always feel like our site is to quite fair to GMCR and other K-cups because they're not really trying to compare with specialty coffee. Nonetheless I try to be fair and partial and grade them in relationship. And some commodity producers score 2 and 3 stars, where we see GMRC in the 3.5 to 4. This is a satisfying decaf that's quite clean. It's light, clean and has good chocolate note and a little bit of baking spice. Though I think overall it's fairly non-descript. You get the sense that might be what are going for?
It's not bad.
Thought it would be terrible but pleasantly surprised!
