Eight O' Clock Coffee Review & Pinterest Sweeps Announcement

Sponsored post*

My morning coffee is really something I just can't live without. Eight O' Clock Coffee is America's Original Gourmet Coffee. It is available in a variety of flavors and grinds and is now available in K-cups for Keurig systems. I was given the opportunity to try the K-cups, the Original Ground (100% Arabica beans at a medium roast), and French Vanilla (lightly roasted 100% Arabic beans infused with sweet french vanilla).

Review: I am really not a coffee snob - to me, a cup of coffee is a cup of coffee. However, I was pretty impressed with the Eight O' Clock flavors. The Original was my husband's preference. We both use flavored creamer so he likes regular coffee. The taste was smooth and the strength was perfect. The medium roast is definitely my preference and it made for a really enjoyable cup of coffee. I really liked the French Vanilla. It reminded me of a cappuccino when I added French Vanilla creamer to it - a real sweet treat!  I do not have a Keurig machine so my mom will get to enjoy the K-cups and I will be sure to choose the Eight O' Clock Coffee cups when I go to visit! Overall, I was very satisfied with the taste and quality of this brand. It is started to make me rethink my "a cup of coffee is a cup of coffee" mentality!!
