Cupping Method:I had this coffee at a kid's playspace in Woburn, MA called Vinkari Safari in what I would call the standard K-Cup machine.

My dad got this roast for me as a gift. It is BJ's (wholesale grocery club) brand and it actually exceeded my expectations. Good coffee flavor, balanced, a little sweet, clean finish. It did seem to be strongly caffeinated, so keep that in mind if it is a concern. Another thing that I appreciated, but others might not, is that this was more of a medium roast than dark.
I was running out of steam this morning watching my kids at a playspace, and this was the only coffee they had. It was pretty obvious from the other snacks as well, the folks there shop at BJ's! Anyhow, this is your par for the course medium/dark roast K-cup. It's not too bitter, and has a nice aroma, chocolate lead out, and a bit of smokiness with a fairly rich mouthfeel and some caramel/maple sweetness. It lacks acidity or that nice orange/citrus you get with a medium Colombian, but is fairly smooth.
