Customer Reviews
Tassimo never had it so good!
Finally! Starbucks for my Tassimo. I purchased the Tassimo (which is a fabulous machine - but if you're reading this review for T-Discs you probably already know that!) over a year ago to replace my daily Starbucks habit.
Until now, I had been steadily rotating through the store-available coffee selections (Gevalia, Maxwell House, Seattle's Best). These all worked fine, but now I'm really using the machine as I had originally intended.
These T-Discs come 12 to a package, and they're fat (think twice the height of a regular coffee disc). Amazon's price on this two pack is very competitive, and I have recently seen them available at places like Bed Bath & Beyond (more expensive, but instant gratification).
The flavor of this House Blend is true to form - if you're a fan of Starbucks, it will be familar to you. Granted, it's not grinder fresh like you would get from whole beans minced seconds before brewing, but it's pretty darn close. I wasn't sure what to expect but I will definitely be ordering this again.
Even when it's not on sale, it works out to less than a dollar a cup. Cheaper than walking into Starbucks, more expensive than buying a canister of Folgers - but the one cup convenience and superior taste just can't be beat.
Highly recommended for Tassimophiles who crave their Starbucks.
STRONG Stuff !!
Ok...I'm not a religious Starbucks person, but I pop in there once in a Blue moon.
This coffee does closely mirror what I've had as their "house blend" in the past.
Plainly, it is a VERY STRONG cup of coffee. Slightly biting, and just a little too strong for my taste.
Even still, this has a better taste than the weak and watery Gevalia Coffee Creama.
As a previous review stated, these Starbucks discs are "double thick" with coffee, not like the smaller discs you get with Gevalia, or even Espresso. (they are about as thick as a milk/creamer disc for a Cappuccino)
When I would make auto drip coffee at home, I rarely put more than one teaspoon of sugar in with milk, however, with this Starbucks house blend I put in 2 heaping teaspoons of sugar and milk, and this coffee was STILL STRONG.
By the time I was finished half a cup, I was wide awake.
I think if I split one cup into 2, and cut it with some real half and half, plus the sugar, this would be more agreeable to my taste.
Obviously, it comes down to individual taste.
In general, this is a very good, very strong cup of coffee.
I'm giving this 5 stars because the product delivers as advertised and at a reasonable price on Amazon.
If I were paying full retail price the rating would drop to 4 stars.
I'm looking forward to trying the other Starbucks T-discs to see the nuances they've captured.
Best Tassimo Option
Starbucks has this coffee just the way I think it should be. Each disc has twice the coffee and tastes twice as good. I no longer have to brew a cup of coffee and add a shot of espresso to get a palatable cup. So, even though the price per disc is higher, each tasty cup is more economical. I like all three blends, but the House Blend is my favorite.
