Organic decaf with compostable cups!
I ordered the Downtime Decaf when I ran out of my usual brand and couldn't get it for over a week. I was pleasantly surprised by this one. So much, in fact, that it'll probably replace my usual brand going forward. This coffee just has a nice flavor and aroma, is smooth and made even better by the fact that it comes in compostable cups. It's not terribly easy to find all that, especially for a reasonable price. I did, however, have one k-cup incident where it filled my coffee cup with grounds -- but since it was one out of an entire bag, no stars docked for this. I would recommend this brand!

Works just fine in my Keurig 2.0
I got this Swiss water decaffeinated coffee simply to try out the compostable pods since I like to compost. I didn't expect to fall in love with this coffee and call it my favorite.I recently decided to drink coffee black as a possible way to reduce calories and reduce hunger. I wasn't a full time coffee drinker before, nor am I anywhere near an expert. I just know that if I was going to drink coffee black that I needed to find good quality coffee if I wanted to enjoy this transition. Caffeinated coffees were good enough to get started, but later in the day I'd try regular cheap decaffeinated coffees and I didn't like the taste at all. I then researched the process of how they are made, which led me to Swiss-water decaffinated coffees. Much Much better in taste.I have a Keurig and got sick of trying to salvage the small amount of coffee in plastic K-cups to put into my compost, so I happened to stumble across this product on Amazon with the compostable pods. I was worried about a few reviews that said they won't work in a Keurig 2.0. But I bought them anyway and they work just fine, no errors, no mess. They also work fine in my Ninja coffee maker. It's only been a few weeks, so I can't say yet how well or how long it takes the pods to blend into compost, but it is sure nice to just toss them straight into the compost without doing any extra nor a need to throw away plastic into the trash.The taste.... like I said, I'm no expert at coffee, I do not have the experience of trying all brands and types of coffee the world offers, this may just be what an average good cup of coffee tastes like, but to me it is my favorite flavor of coffee so far. It has that bitter coffee taste that reminds me of the bitterness of unsweetened dark chocolate.... the desirable kind of bitterness, not too strong to make your face scrunch, but enough stick with your tongue for several minutes after each sip. It's very desirable and now I find myself wanting to drink this coffee all throughout the day as my beverage of choice, not just a gimmick to suppress appetite... which after 2 months I don't think it suppresses appetite at all like keto coffee can. But that's fine, it was worth a try. Now I'm happy to have discovered a new drink that I love.The product comes in a box and contains two metallic-looking freshness bags. When you open them up, the small of wonderful coffee is yours to enjoy. I'm very happy with this purchase. I will be auto-repurchasing this coffee.

Surprisingly aromatic and rich
You have to be careful with these compostable k cups. Not that they're not compostable (they are) but how they're stored makes a big difference. I recently switched to these from my compostables at my regular grocery store because I only buy them on sale but they've not been so in weeks. So on a whim I bought these. I'm so glad I did. They come in a bag with "loose" k cups but the bag is the sturdy vented kind that ground or whole bean coffee comes in. It has the fold over structure with the flat "twist tie" kind of material which makes them store nicer than what I've used from other companies. I may still invest in a mason jar vacuum setup to really keep them fresh since I only use one a day, but if I don't I'm fine with thisMeanwhile the flavor is terrific. It's rich, aromatic, has a little nuttiness that Colombian coffee is known for. It's a good value $ but I'd have to buy it on sale here in order to beat the price at my grocery store. But no matter. I've found a really good option and that makes me happy

Amazing flavor. Only 1 wish list item (make pod Lids paper based rather than resin)
These pods taste amazing. The French brew is full of flavor and full-bodied. Amazing brew.The main reason I got this pod was to get away from plastic leaching chemicals of K-cups.These came up as highly reasonably priced as well as organic grounds.Only problem I found is that the lid (where the pod brand is printed) is made of compostable resin.While not traditional petrochemical plastic, my concerns are the potential for chemical additives, possible leaching when exposed to hot liquids, and the need for industrial composting to ensure proper breakdown.I wish they made it from paper. That way, I can be sure there are no chemical migration or microplastic concerns.

Great Coffee
I was not expecting each pod to be individually wrapped. It says the wrapping is biodegradable; I would have chosen the 15 pods to a pack had I known each pod was wrapped separately. I may not have read the description carefully enough though. I love the coffee and love that it is available without all the plastic. Thank you for making beaniac available to us! It is a great alternative and has great flavor.

Change in produt....
Gone from a 5 star to a 3!! I have purchased this product for what seems years now and truly love the vanilla flavor that is just right...not so strong that you do not know it is coffee. The packaging is also fantastic, keeping it fresh. The last three or four shipments I have received have been different. Their seems to be a height difference in the ring that holds it in the k cup holder in the machine. This does not allow it to be punctured completely so the water does not penetrate the pod. I have had to keep a sharp object nearby to make sure all 4 holes are completely through. I hope this is changed back so I can keep using this great coffee, but it is getting old making sure each pod will deliver!

Affordable eco friendly and delicious
The dark roast version of this coffee is amazing. I’m not a morning person so I love the convenience of a K cup, but also try to be eco- conscious when possible. I love that these are compostable and don’t contribute to plastic waste. Plus the price is awesome.
