With the others, I sometimes need to be in the mood for them, but with the Tully's, I can pretty much drink them anytime. I prefer the House Blend by a small margin, but these have both become some of my favorite K-Cups, along with Gloria Jean's Black Gold, Timothy's Rainforest Espresso and Midnight Magic, and Coffee People Donut Shop. I'll keep the Full City Roast around. I recently purchased Tully's Full City Roast, as well as Tully's House Blend. They are both excellent, but personally, I am giving the Full City Roast a 4, and the House Blend a 5.
This is not a great cup of coffee, but is certainly is a good cup of coffee. I have tried several K-Cups and so far this is my favorite. I'm not a dark roast guy, so if that is your pleasure you might want to try something else.
Besides, my coffee affliction is way to huge to be held down to a little spinning coffee merry-go-round.For the first few months my coffee problem went spinning out of control. I've given up my Mr. But please don't take my word as gospel, everybody's different. I think and reflect over my coffee as I delight in each and every sip. Coffee and now have a Keurig Home Brewing System and I make my coffee a cup at a time and I really love it. I used to drink a couple pots a day, but now I've cut way, way back, so now that I'm not into quantity, I'm into quality. At least the best twenty-two flavors I've come across in the hundreds I've tried. So when I reach into the breakfast tub for example, I never know which of the seven flavors that I'm going to wind up with.
For awhile I used a Chrome Carosel, made by Keurig, but I had to keep filling it and also it was kind of clumsy for me. I am a coffee drinker of the first order. When I absolutely have to have an extra cup during that quiet, coffee drinking them, then that's the flavor I go for. How often does that happen, when one cup isn't enough. It's a quiet time for me.
I don't drink coffee during my meal, but afterwards, instead of desert. That's not so bad though, better a coffee crutch than something else.In my opinion these are the twenty-two best cups of joy in the whole wide world. You have to dive right right in, take a chance, try several flavors till you find the one or the twenty-two that you like best. Still, from two pots a java a day, down to four cups, is a pretty good thing, I'm not as wired as I used to be, but let's face it, I'm still running on coffee. I had boxes and boxes of coffee in my pantry, refrigerator, cupboards, garage, even in the trunk of my car, but now I've sort of got my gourmet coffee disorder in hand and down to twenty-eight flavors.For Breakfast I have my favorite seven and they are: Timothy's World Coffee, Extra Bold Fair Trade Nicaraguan, Timothy's World Coffee, Midnight Magic, Bold, Timothy's World Coffee, Kona Blend, Tully's French Roast Coffee K-Cups, Coffee People Bold Black Tiger Dark Roast, Timothy's World Coffee, Morning Blend and Coffee People Coffee, Wake Up Call Bold.For Lunch I have my favorite seven and they are: Gloria Jean's Coffees Hazelnut Coffee, Emeril's K-cups, Big Easy Bold, Gloria Jean's Coffees, Black Gold Extra Bold, Timothy's World Coffee, Private Blend, Timothy's World Coffee, Extra Bold Parisian Nights, Timothy's World Coffee, Colombian La Vereda and Gloria Jean's Coffees GJ Special BlendAnd for dinner, yes I drink coffee in the evening as well, but that's not so bad, considering I don't drink alcohol, don't smoke, don't eat sweets and eat very little meat. Only about once a day. I really enjoy, really savior a good cuppa joe.
I know for some, having twenty-two different flavors of coffee in my kitchen might seem a bit much, maybe even a bit quirky, well everyone's gotta have their quirks, besides, I've cut way down.Now, about that twenty-second flavor. If it kept me up at night, well then that would be different, but it doesn't.Anyway for dinner I'll drink one of these seven: Tully's Full City Roast Coffee, Gloria Jean's Coffee, Mudslide, Timothy's World Coffee, Italian Blend, Green Mountain Coffee K-Cups Dark Magic Extra Bold, Green Mountain Coffee Nantucket Blend, Timothy's World Coffee, San Lorenzo Dark and Gloria Jean's Coffee, Classic Reserve.And then there is my absolute favorite, number twenty-two and that is Extra Bold Rainforest Espresso, a Timothy's World Coffee.I keep my k-cups in three large assorted tupperware tubs, marked in red sharpie, of course, Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. It only takes a minute to make a cup and each cup is different, depending on my mood.I've been drinking K-cup coffee for a couple years now and have more of these little cups in my house than you can shake a stick at. Sometimes I'll eat meat, but not often, so a cup of coffee with dinner doesn't seem so bad, considering.
But buying this for the office is both economical and easy This and Newman's Own Organics are my favorite K-cups. They get the closest to freshly ground brewed coffee, but I still don't think pod coffee can ever compete with freshly brewed Seattle coffee.
I'm pretty happy with them and will probably re-order them for the forseeable future. After going through a box of the Timothy's Kona Blend cups, I wanted to try something a little richer. The Tully's Full City cups make a nice full-flavor cup of coffee, even at the larger size cups.
