Reviews for Green Mountain Coffee
Intense, sweet-toned aroma: cherryish fruit, hints of orange and flowers. In the cup rich, rounded acidity, fullish body, and continued cherry- and orange-toned fruit complicated by a dry, cocoaish chocolate. Simple, sweet finish.
Rich, deep, balanced coffee with tight-knit complexity in aroma and cup: night flowers, orange, berry, raisin. Delicately bright acidity, medium body, simple but cleanly rich finish.
Soft aroma of flowers and flowering grass, lime-like citrus and a hint of milky chocolate. Notes of toast, sweet citrus and dry white wine in the cup, with floral hints reemerging as it cools. Balanced acidity, medium body, with a hint of astringency in the mildly fruit-toned chocolate finish.
Aroma and flavor highlight notes of gently charred aromatic wood, dark chocolate and toast. As the cup cools, soft fruit flavors emerge (citrus?) as well as a hint of leather. Roastiness lingers in the finish, developing a cocoa toned sweetness in the long.
Lovely balance. Crisply sweet-toned aroma: lemon, flowers, and a deepening hint of pungent dried fruit. In the cup gently bright, with a continued delicate sweetness and complex cherryish fruit completely free of bitter or astringent imbalances. Cleanly simple finish.
An aromatically simple but deeply resonant coffee. Richly pungent aroma with hints of nut, raisin and dark chocolate. In the cup lightly syrupy mouthfeel and a quietly vibrant, roast-toned acidity. Continued suggestions of raisin or perhaps dried cherry, dark chocolate, nut. Clean, sweet, though rather short finish.
Straightforward, balanced traditional American cup: sweet but gently tart and acidy, lightly syrupy in mouthfeel, hints of aromatic wood and butter in the aroma turning toward a pungent dark chocolate in the cup. The chocolate suggestion saves a slightly astringent finish from simplicity.
Deeply and intensely roasty aroma, with notes of charred cedar, walnut and spicy chocolate. Medium body, somewhat thin mouthfeel, flavors of charred wood with hints of raisin, dark chocolate and earth. The short finish is sweet and rich, but simplifies, with an astringent roastiness lingering in the long.
(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce a 6-ounce serving size): Aromatic notes of chocolate, sweet tomato-like citrus and orange. Brightly balanced fruit-toned acidity, with sweet orange notes turning toward caramel and milky chocolate. Simple sweetness in the finish.
(As brewed in a Keurig B60 single-serve brewing device using a "K-Cup" capsule to produce a 6-ounce serving size): Simple roasty aroma with hints of earthiness and aromatic wood. Silky, though slightly lean body, with mild smokiness in flavor, creamy, almost caramel-like sweetness, and a chocolate note. The roasty character carries into the finish with slight astringency developing in the long.
A very comfortable coffee. Sweetly balanced aroma: dark chocolate, raisiny fruit. In the cup low-toned, gentle acidity, roundly silky mouthfeel, continued dark chocolate and raisin notes supported by aromatic wood and perhaps a hint of lemon. The chocolate notes persist in the quietly rich finish.
Aromatic notes of chocolate, peppery spices, nuts and soft, sweet-toned fruit. Rounded, balanced acidity, with full, buttery mouthfeel. Sweet raisin-like fruit notes in the cup fade toward dark chocolate and nut. A cocoaish chocolate carries into the finish.
Gentle, balanced and round. Light tangy notes in the aroma with hints of toast and geranium. In the cup soft chocolate and nut flavors are balanced by suggestions of citrus. Fairly clean in the finish with light nutty tones lingering in the long.
Sweet-toned, soft aroma with wood and molasses notes. In the cup medium body, very soft acidity, with flavor notes that in their sweet wood and fruity herb character distinctly resemble date. Clean, sweet, rather fast-fading finish.
Intense, simple aroma: sweet scorched wood, hint of dark chocolate. More complex in the cup: nut and dark chocolate dominate, with a distinct herb note, somewhere between rosemary and peppermint. Smooth, sweet finish, only slightly heavy in the long.
Aroma of stone fruit - peaches and plums - with a subtle suggestion of tangy white wine and herbs. In the cup sweet and balanced overall, with a juicy mouthfeel and hints of nut, tropical fruit and aromatic wood. Mild nutty tones linger in the finish.
Mildly toasty aroma, with sweet hints of flowers and orange-toned fruit. In the cup full body, straightforward toasty notes and, as the coffee cools, chocolate, nuts and tropical fruit. Pleasant cocoa in the long finish.
A round bakers' chocolate character in the aroma, with subtle berry, citrus and aromatic wood notes. Balanced acidity supports the dominant sweet chocolate tones in the cup. A long finish with fruit-toned cocoa complication, suggesting cocoa hulls or nibs.
Roundly balanced aroma; orange, chocolate, a hint of flowers. In the cup silky mouthfeel, crisp acidity. The orange notes turn pleasantly bittersweet (think fresh orange peel) and the hint of chocolate goes dark and raisiny. The orange notes carry deeply into the finish, with a revived suggestion of flowers.
Deep, smoke-toned aroma with gently scorched wood notes, fir perhaps. Medium-bodied in the cup; the scorched wood notes round toward a pungent, herby dark chocolate. Thin but cleanly roasty finish.
