N-Cap's Espresso Royal by Mr Coffee is an intense, chocolatey coffee pod that delivers a pleasant, light flavor with subtle earthy notes. While the taste becomes more bitter towards the end, the balance of sweetness and acidity remains. The nutty and slightly sweet notes are followed by a fragrant, somewhat bitter aftertaste, making this an enjoyable coffee with a pleasing aroma.
Rating: 3.5/5 - The earthy notes detract from the coffee somewhat, but it's still pleasant overall.
The manufacturer describes this pod as one with an intensity level of 7, with fruity, floral, sultana and chocolate notes. I'd say these are fairly accurate, though the slight earthiness isn't really accounted for.
