POD REVIEW – Coffee People’s BLACK TIGER
This is my first review of a coffee pod. We have tried many of the common pods. We are forever searching for the one that packs the most punch with the least amount of bitterness. We have settled mostly on two flavors. The one I will cover in this post is Coffee People’s BLACK TIGER.
Black Tiger is by far the strongest we have tried to date. You can feel the caffeine kick in almost immediately. I am not up to speed with the lingo on how to review coffee so please forgive my ignorance. I enjoy Black Tiger on those days when you wake up really tired. The label on the front of the pod already sets the tone for what you are about to taste. A bold looking Tiger stares at you as you place it into the machine. And when you take the first sip bold is what you get. I would describe the taste as heavy earthy or tobacco like. It holds it’s taste regardless of what flavored creamers you add. In closeing Black Tiger is so far my morning fuel when the day starts rough.
I’m going to have to try this coffee for my rough days. Right now, I drink Green Mountain Coffee’s Newman’s Own Extra Bold. I don’t know much about coffee lingo either but my family agrees that they like it when I drink it as my fast forward self is much more fun to watch. It’s pretty smooth and has an almost chocolate milk kind of texture when you add cream. It’s flavor seems to stand up to the cream though like you say Black Tiger does. Have you tried it?
I like Newmans Own pods also. They are really mild and smooth. You need to use the small cup setting to get a good flavor.
