K-Cup review: Caribou Coffee Daybreak Morning Blend

The first k-cup in the journey is the Caribou Coffee Daybreak Morning Blend, pictured below.


I chose it arbitrarily from the non flavored section of my Keurig 5060 K-Cup Carousel, and got down to business.

The Caribou Coffee Daybreak Morning Blend had a great aroma as it brewed (but really, what coffee doesn't smell good as it brews?), and I was excited to try it.  However, I found that like most other "breakfast" style coffees, it tasted a bit too bright and lacked the flavor I was looking for.  If you typically like a breakfast blend style coffee, you might enjoy this k-cup.  However, if you like a bolder taste to your coffee, skip this one (and for that matter, all other "breakfast" style coffees) completely.  This is not a k-cup I will be purchasing again.

The low down:

Flavor:  5  It was pretty weak.
Price:  4  At about $0.84 a cup, it is a bit pricey.
Overall rating: 4.5  Not the best
Would I buy again?:  No
