Very surprising. I expected this coffee to be overpowering even for a dark roast fiend like me. It has a wonderful full flavor with a nice finish and no burned or charred taste. I love it!

Very nice, sweet, chocolatey overtones. Down side is the slightly charred aftertaste, and the relatively thin body. In the end, even though this one had its merits, I prefer the Gormet Cafe French Roast and Costa Rican for dark roasts. If there was a 3 1/2 stars, that'd be my rating.

A rich full cup of coffee just the way I like it. I didn't notice any bitterness at all.

This one had a strong burnt dark roast flavor and was a big step down from the Much prefered the 52nd St Gutatemala Dark.

Wonderful expresso that tastes like it was brewed through a copper expresso maker.

Good Starbucks style flavor and aroma.
One of the better coffee PODS out there.

By and large I find Cafejo to be delicious coffee.
That said, there are a few pods that I'm mixed
about. This is one of them.
First off, it isn't really espresso and it isn't really
coffee. It's an odd hybrid. This makes sense given
that no single-serving coffee maker has the
requisite number of bars of pressure to make "true"
espresso.
At first sip, I usually want to spit this stuff out. It's
powerful, earthy, and very dark. If you're half
asleep, it really wakes you up. Oddly, the foam is
the worst part. Once it settles, the coffee gets
appreciably better.
With further sips, Espresso Gold becomes even
more pleasant but you never quite forget that you
are drinking one bold cup of joe. It's not a coffee
you can just "forget about."
By the bottom of the cup, you like it. It still has that
earthy quality to it but you begin to enjoy the
subtler notes of flavor.
That said, I won't be ordering this again because,
although it mellows out to something quite
drinkable, it is not as immediately satisfying as the
Kenya, Sumatra, or Adrenaline dark brews.

Fabulous aroma followed by a wonderfully strong taste.

Liquid gunpowder! Wonderful aroma and flavor -- I never thought I could get this from a pod. Thanks!

10 oz setting on the Bunn made a very strong cup. I like espresso, but a full size cup of this was too intense for me.

Excellent! Much better than just their other Espresso Italiano. Bold, dark, rich and smooth body.

Very good dark roast, (4.5 stars)nice smokey notes on the finish. This larger pod is the absolute max that will fit in my Senseo (single holder). Most of the time I make a CafeMocha out of my morning cup. This blend holds up nicely to the chocolate (Trader Joe's chocolate syrup - no corn syrup in it!). My coffees are usually sweetened with Stevia, by the way.

The only reason it's listed as "dark" is because they use overstuffed pods (which don't work in my SimpleHuman A40 pod brewer.) Don't buy unless your brewer can handle thick pods.

Nice deep flavor. The unnamed reviewer who starts their review "By and large" has said everything that needs to be.
