I bought this coffee specifically because it was Pumpkin Spice. Not only was there no hint of pumpkin spice in the taste but it produced no aroma whatsoever when brewing. Possibly the pods don’t create any of the aroma but there should have at least been the flavor. I don’t think they even packed my order with Pumpkin Spice. Don’t buy it.

The pods produced much weaker flavor coffee than expected for a dark roast. At the high price for these pods, I won’t be buying them again.

NOT WORTH THE ADDITIONAL COST
Saw the advertisement for Fabula Coffee and thought maybe they do have a better coffee. Received the shipment and decided to perform a taste test of their coffee and my own brand. I am not a professional coffee taster, however I was the plant engineer for a coffee plant and did participate in some real taste testing to determine multimillion dollar purchase transactions. I DID NOT find Fabula coffee any better than my brand, and my brand is almost half the cost. In fact, I found Fabula Coffee to have a more acidic aftertaste than my brand. And yes, I tested your medium roast with my medium roast coffee. Sorry Fabula Coffee, you failed with this customer.

Tastes good, but not good enough for the price
The coffee tastes not-quite-but-nearly as good as coffee ever tastes, and that's the problem: given the hype, I had expected something amazing, and instead I got coffee that tastes like every other expensive coffee--it's better than Maxwell House, I guess, but certainly no better than much else. Juan Valdez, for example, beats it hands-down. For $60, this coffee should taste like ambrosia.
It also should be noted that the K-Cups are quite flimsy: I've used seven, and three were wasted because they broke in the Keurig and flooded my cup with grounds.
Oh, and it gives me horrible diarrhea. Sorry to overshare, but there it is.
Conclusion: Price? Too high. Taste? Good, but not nearly good enough for the price. Build quality of the pods? Poor. Impact on my GI tract? You don't wanna know.
Sorry, everyone, but I simply cannot recommend this product. I'm buying Juan Valdez next time.

The coffee is weak tasting
The coffee, far from being the bold taste I ordered, lacks any taste. The concept of the biodegradable materials is great, but sadly the coffee is weak tasting

Exploding pods.
The coffee is good but the pods brake open during the brewing process and dump all the grounds into the machine. It is a real pain to clean it all out. Plus that cup is wasted because its full of grounds. Not sure what the issue is but not too happy with the quality of the pod itself.
