K-Cup Coffee Review: Green Mountain's Our Blend

Green Mountain's Our Blend K-Cup Coffee is not "my" blend.  I have tried the Our Blend a few times and eachGreen_Mountain_Our_Blend_K-Cups.jpg time it doesn't taste any better (in my opinion.)  Why? Probably because of my taste preference for earthy, rich and darker coffees.  I wish I would like Green Mountain's Our Blend because it is a very popular blend for Green Mountain and it is served at many fine restaurants on the East Coast.  Funny enough, it tastes like the type of coffee I typically drink at fine restaurants here in the Midwest too.  The problem for me is that I tend to like very few fine restaurant coffees!  My choice is usually an espresso.

Nevertheless, beyond my personal opinion, Green Mountain's Our Blend is described as, "smooth and aromatic blend made exclusively from American coffees."  American coffees tend to have light body, simplicity and sharp acidity. They are typically thought of as having bright flavors with a clean, crisp finish.  Since it is a blend, the mix is well-balanced.   The "Our Blend" coffee is a light/medium roast. 

You have to try it for yourself.  A good rule of thumb is if you like fine restaurant coffee, then you may prefer the Green Mountain Our Blend K-Cups.   For me, I will stick with other outstanding coffee from Green Mountain.
