Try it, you'll like it! Oct 17, 2009
By Marie I ordered Black Tiger by accident...I like the new(and economical)packaging of the Coffee People coffee, and meant to order the Donut Shop medium coffee in the "new box". When I tried Black tiger, I liked it.It's a bit strong, but not burned tasting.I add a little water sometimes to bring it to my taste. So I now have both Donut Shop and Black Tiger, and, love them both! And...I love my Keurig coffee maker(a Christmas gift for my husband and I from our daughter). A little bit of a luxury, but I have fresh cup of coffee every time!

Keep coming back to tiger Oct 27, 2009
By Vallorbs I have tried many of the K cups from Coffee People and they all have their strengths. I drink them everyday and find myself always coming back to the black tiger. It is coffee with rich earthy flavors and mild acid finish in excellent balance. A little early morning time alone with a cup of fresh brewed black tiger K-cup is what makes the start of the day a real treat for me. I have seen some compare jet fuel to black tiger and think that you will have a challenge telling the difference. It probably does not matter too much, because if you like or dislike the one, the other will likely be the same result. What a great find. Thanks coffee people!

Smooth, Strong and Rich Oct 24, 2009
By Coffee Lover

Sweet! I found Black Tiger in the display or coffees at my car dealer while I was waiting for my car and tried a cup. It was fantastic; just the right blend of acidity and richness in a coffee with a good punch. I came home and ordered some for myself and, while I keep trying different K-Cups, I keep going back to the Tiger.

Bold but not bitter Oct 17, 2010
By C. Taylor NOTE: This is a review of this coffee in the K-cup format, not of Amazon's packaging. However, I have never had trouble with the Frustration-free packaging; I simply cannot comment in this case.
Reviewer's preferences: Strong, medium-dark roast coffees, mid-to-heavily sweetened with whole milk (4:1 ratio or a little heavier toward the coffee side). I occasionally add a hint of vanilla syrup and cream or half-and-half if a coffee is overly bitter.
I picked up this coffee in a large sampler box of Coffee People "Extra Bold" K-cups, which I have just finished off. The collection contained the following blends/coffees: Wake-up Call, Jet Fuel, Black Tiger, and Organic. I have had each coffee multiple times. From the four, I give the Organic blend the top spot with a slight edge over Black Tiger (we're talking 9.1/10 over 9.0/10 here). Both the Black Tiger and Organic were strong and bold in flavor but not too bitter, while the Wake-up Call tended to be a little more harsh on the palate. The Jet Fuel blend was appropriately named, as it almost always required a little vanilla and more milk or even heavy cream to make it palatable.
Qualities of Coffee People Black Tiger blend: Strong, medium-to-heavy dark coffee flavor (think bold Columbian or Italian roast strength) with a rich aroma and barely-there nutty note. Bitterness on the mild end, a little above most medium roast coffees, but still pleasant. Mild-to-medium acidity (mellow), with no sourness of note and a slightly nutty or even earthy flavor. Flavor envelops the entire mouth, but rarely overwhelms the palate. Substantial body, but not heavy or syrupy. Takes to sweeteners and milk/cream well without disappearing or losing nuance. Very good bold coffee, with a distinguishable flavor profile but still primarily made up of the familiar flavors unique to coffee.

Ok, but not the best I've tasted Jun 02, 2010
By Petit Oiseau

Black Tiger makes a good cup of coffee, but not great. It's got a bit of a bite and could be a little smoother. I really enjoy a rich, robust coffee and was hoping for that according to the name--just a bit disappointed. I have found Timothy's Rainforest Extra Bold Espresso K-Cup a much more satisfying cup. The 50 pack in the simple brown box, though, is a great idea--there's enough waste with the K-cups that the simpler the outer packaging, the better.
