Green Mountain Coffee Decaf K-Cup, Dark Magic, 12-Count

Customer Reviews

Good at first, but gradually loses flavourFollowing a couple heart attacks last year my doctors insisted that I either give up coffee altogether or switch to decaf and limit myself to one or two cups a day. I purchased a k-cup brewer so I could make a cup at a time and began my search for a flavourful decaf coffee available in k-cups. Green Mountain Dark Magic was the second one I tried. It has fairly good flavour for the first few sips, but after that the flavour steadily weakens. By the bottom of the cup it basically tastes like warm water to me. That may, in part, be my 65-year-old taste buds .... but on the other hand I didn't need to drink decaf until I was older and that's probably true of most other decaf drinkers.3Nice, dark cup of decaf!My husband likes dark, bold coffee. These dark magic decaf k cups fit the bill perfectly. We use large coffee mugs and these make a strong enough cup of coffee that he does not need to use two pods for a cup.Coffee has a tendency to irritate his stomach and so far this coffee has not bothered him at all .I have not been able to find this same brand and style at a regular store but Amazon's price is comparable or better than grocery store prices on K Cups anyway as well as being more convenient.I will definitely be buying these again!5The only decaf K-cup that will give me 10 ounces of coffee flavor!The only decaf k-cup that will give me 10 ounces of coffee flavor! Yes, that's true. If you could look at my order history here on Amazon, you'd know - I've tried them all. Dark Magic decaf is amazingly good and flavors the full 10 ounces plus easily accepts cream if you like it. I have to admit that I don't consider myself a coffee connoisseur, because I like to make coffee that tastes like dessert. I also have to drink decaf. But I do like that coffee flavor. I was despairing after I got my Keurig because none of the k-cups I purchased could give me 10 ounces and still taste like coffee. So I went down to 8 ounces and have a few favorites that are ok. Then I found Dark Magic decaf and my search was over. Try it!5Robust flavor in a coffee podI was very happy to find Green Mountain Coffee Dark Magic. One of my complaints about the pod coffee makers was the weak coffee that it made. Even changing the size of the cup you brewed didn t give me the full coffee flavor I desired. Once I found these pods, however, I was happy, They give you the full-bodied flavor of a traditionally brewed cup of coffee. Kudos!5I love my coffee boldI love my coffee bold, strong and I drink it black. This is the best decaf I have found. Most decafs a too mild. I don't want the caffeine but I want a full bodied cup of coffee.This is my go to decaf. If you like Black Tiger - a full bodied regular coffee - you should like this decaf.5Decaf for Me....I recently tried this after normally buying Caribou or Barista Prima brand decafs... I'm liking this brand better...and seem to be going through more of it during the day...so there lies the evidence. I won't attempt to desribe the taste other than to say it's good. Bold simply means that the cup contains more coffee than normal...5Wonderful decaf!I love coffee. Always have. But due to a health problem (caffeine causes vertigo for me) I can no longer drink all the wonderful blends the coffee world has to offer. THANK GOODNESS for Green Mountain Decaf Dark Magic k-cups! You can find a light roast decaf k-cup just about anywhere but never a dark roast. This coffee satisfies all my desires for a rich, full bodied cup of coffee. Thank you Green Mountain!5MISLEADING ADVERTISINGBeware !!! Misleading advertising ! I am a satisfied customer of Dark Magic Decaf K-Cups. The pictured K-Cups led me to believe that there was a stronger blend. With that in mind, I ordered the Extra Bold. I received regular Dark Magic Decaf K-Cups...NOT the EXTRA BOLD as shown in their photo. Knowing this I could have ordered it from Amazon Prime and saved $7 dollars. I complained to the seller and this is what they told me:"Thank you for your email. There are several issues that arise from this situation. Let us briefly explain.Green Mountain/Keurig, the manufacturer of the Green Mountain Dark Magic Decaf brand K-Cups, likes to periodically and randomly change the graphical representation of their K-Cups...the blend, roast, amount of grounds, etc. never changes, but they redesign the lids of the K-Cups seemingly without any need to do so. This creates massive customer confusion, but they continue to redesign the lids nevertheless. Thus, the Green Mountain Dark Magic Decaf that Green Mountain sold 3 years ago and 2 years ago and last year and now are all exactly the same (in amount of grounds, the time that the beans spend roasting, etc.). Green Mountain has never sold any other type of the Green Mountain Dark Magic Decaf except for the one that they originally created and are still selling (BTW, you're welcome to confirm this with Green Mountain directly and/or do a Google image search to find the various graphical redesigns of this blend). This is one major issue.The other major issue is that Amazon allows multiple sellers to submit different information to the same listing and an algorithm chooses which information to display on the site (no seller has any control over this). We have submitted the correct information through our account, but the algorithm may choose other sellers' submissions to display. We have also contacted Amazon to change the displayed information manually, but shortly after this is done, the algorithm brings up other sellers' information.We know that this is a long explanation, but we wanted you to know what's actually happening in the background. All in all, there is only one type of Green Mountain Dark Magic Decaf (not a "Regular" one versus an "Extra Bold" one), as it has always been (Green Mountain doesn't make any other one).Thus, all in all, you received the same "Green Mountain Dark Magic Decaf" that has always been made.Thank you for your business. All the best,Deals On Call Customer Service"2This decaf coffee has an excellent strong flavorSomeone gave us an old Keurig machine and I don't take caffeine, so thought I'd test out various decaf pods. This Green Mountain Dark Magic is by far my fave. I don't drink regular coffee so don't actually know how it compares, but it tastes and smells great to me. And no slight caffeinated feeling afterwards, as some decafs leave you with.5BEST DECAF THERE ISI love dark dark coffee, but cannot tolerate caffeine. I am a coffee snob, and only drink decaf espresso made with my very expensive machine. However, at my boyfriend's house he only has a Keurig so I ordered this coffee fully expecting to hate it. Well, I LOVE IT! It is rich,, flavorful and delicious. I am a convert and am going to buy a Keurig for my house too.5
