This is most definitely the worst K-Cup I have ever tasted. I have had the pleasure of tasting the majority of K-Cup varieties and this by far the worst!!!! It smells horrible and tastes even worse. The best way to describe the odor is the burnt aroma that would come from a coffee pot that was left on a burner until all you could smell was the charred remains. Since when does Burnt = Kahlua? After brewing this in my office, I was trying to find lysol or air freshner to clear the air. I feel I need to run vinegar through machine to clear any trace of this bad coffee. I have 23 more K-Cups out of the box of 24 if anyone wants them for free.

I was pretty excited to receive this flavor, as Kahlua is one of my favorite flavors. Upon making the coffee, my wife walked through the kitchen and asked if a skunk has sprayed outside of the window. The coffee gives off a VERY strong aroma when brewed. If you like a strong cup of coffee, this one is for you. As the earlier poster stated, I didn’t get much of the Kahula flavor that I was hoping for. Not sure if I’ll even use up the cups due to the aroma that is created when brewing. Out of all of the flavors I have tried, this is probably the worst.

The smell and taste are undescribeable. I love Timothys and I love Kahlua, this confused me. The smell was so bad my sister woke up and thought there was a skunk outside the kitchen. We brewed another, still smelled and tasted aweful. I didnt even want to give them away to anyone because I would feel bad.

This robust flavor stands up well to a travel-sized mug and is indeed very smooth as described, but I didn’t get an actual Kahlua flavor much, if at all. At first the flavor seemed to have a burned taste to me–the very flavor I was avoiding with the single serving Keurig system. I decided to test it by adding some real Kahlua to standard unflavored coffee and found it didn’t taste vastly different–so I guess this is how it is supposed to taste, but it’s not what I expected. The guy in the liquor store said that without the alcohol you wouldn’t get the exact taste. Overall, I found the flavor okay in a big mug (too strong for me in a cup) and the two-box pack is a good value.

This coffee does not taste like Kahlua, it only tastes marginal. It’s drinkable with enough sugar, but it’s not very good. Maybe it’s not my style of coffee, for example Gloria Jean’s pumpkin spice is excellent and Green Mountain Nantucket Blend, and for decaf I like Green Mountain French Roast decaf and GM Hazelnut decaf. Bellacino French Vanilla was fabulous but it is discontinued.
