Will not work with Keurig! Frustrating
These cups rarely work in our Keurig because the cup tends to absorb the water almost entirely and let very little through. I have cut holes in the bottom of the "netting" to allow for better water flow, but to no avail. I have never had an issue with other brands of eco pods or with any other regular Keurig cup. I ordered several packages of 2 different flavors and they are all having the same issue!

Smooth cup of joe
Recently I stopped putting sugar in my coffee, you know, one small daily dose of sugar I can eliminate, right? Well it's been a year and I haven't *loved* my coffee since ........until now. What a difference a smooth, light roast, not bitter quality coffee can make. I used to sprinkle cinnamon in lieu of sugar in other light roast to make it less bitter, but I don't even need to do that with this organic light roast blend. But cinnamon is good for ya, so I prob still will. Bottom line, this is my new 'go to' coffee and I would recommend.

Organic French Roast
I got the organic french roast.• My pack came in boxes of 12 pods each. inside of the box is a plastic bag with 12 pods.• The pods are made of a kind of mesh filter cup, rather than a plastic cup.• The plastic bag does not allow reclosing. But it comes with a sticky tab to help reclose the bag. I just put mine in a ziplock.• made for keurig. Works fine.

Points for environmental friendliness, but could use a little fine tuning
One of the selling points that induced me to give this product a try was the environmental friendliness factor: nowhere near as much plastic as a regular K-cup and highly compostable. On that score the product delivers very well.There is one problem however: the filter paper they use in these coffee pods does not seem to do a very good job of filtering fine grit, meaning said grit shows up in my coffee, usually in a layer of fine silt near the bottom. Since I don't find this particularly appealing, that's a strike against this particular product. It might be possible to get around this by adding an extra filter to the brewing cup to catch the grit, but as of this writing I haven't had a chance to try that.Another minor drawback to these pods is, because the coffee grounds aren't fully encased in plastic, they don't keep near as long as regular K-cups once the bag has been opened. Not an issue if you tend to go through a whole box in a week or two, but folks like me who drink less coffee might find them getting a bit stale after a while.So... definite points for environmental friendliness, but I would suggest using stronger filter paper to minimize the grit if you want me to buy these again.

Glad I tried this coffee
What great coffee at a great price. I have tried much more expensive brands and also cheaper ones and none of them (for me) compare. This is a rich multi-layered coffee. Usually I drink my coffee with a medium amount of cream but this coffee is so smooth, I find I am now putting just a "splash" of cream into my cup. So this coffee is "saves" me from a few extra calories too!

Love the taste, not the price
I was looking for a new chocolate flavored coffee and found this. Out of four different chocolate flavored coffees. It won. I love the velvet chocolate flavor with a hint of caramel. Definitely decadently tasting. If I had a lot of money to spend or was getting it for a special occasion, I would definitely buy it again. But, being a big coffee drinker on a lower income job, this is not for me.But, the question is - is this coffee great tasting and worth buying? The answer is YES!!! Give it a try and you will be happy.

Surprisingly Good Decaf
I was very hesitant to try these pods, as I've tried pods like this (without bottoms) from another manufacturer, and they tasted like skunk water. (I won't mention the name, but they share their name with a popular body of water in San Francisco.These, however, were quite good. The pods were easy to use and didn't leave a mess (grounds) in my cup. They have a slightly roasted/nutty flavor which I enjoyed. They have a lower acid then some of the name-brand or more popular decaf coffees I've tried (which is what I was looking for).The pods came packaged in one large cellophane bag, which has to be taped closed (tape provided). I didn't trust that to be air-tight, so I put them - and the cellophane bag - in a ziploc baggie. I think this worked better, as I couldn't smell coffee OUTSIDE of the baggie, but I could smell it INSIDE of the baggie (and outside of the cellophane). Lesson: Don't trust the cellophane & tape provided.Also, I found that its a good idea to run a hot-water cycle after each cup, just to rinse out whatever coffee residue is left over. I do this anyway (good brewer maintenance... superstition... whatever) and found that there is a little bit of coffee left over in the brewer when the cycle is done. If you're one of those people who use their brewer for weird brews (soup anyone?), you'll definitely want to rinse it out first.Overall... if you've been smart enough to dive into Amazon's page 2 searches and find this coffee, I say GO FOR IT. It's much better than the normal decafs, and with no pod malfunctions, definitely worth a try.

Favorite flavor of Cameron's
We discovered Cameron's coffee at our local market and now we're in love. This is truly the best tasting coffee we've had. Really smooth, not bitter at all, and very realistic "true" flavor. This is our favorite flavor, Caramel Brownie. Their other varieties are also fantastic, especially the peppermint during the holidays. This stays fresh, is very flavorful, is packaged very nicely, and we love that the cups are the soft eco pod type. Highly recommended!

Flavour is Ok, pods not sealed fully
Does not have as much flavour as other kcups and maybe it has to do with the fact the capsules are partially exposed, who knows. In any case, it’s coffee and works in both my mini Keurig and large Keurig. As I mentioned, the pod is partially exposed and not enclosed in a typical plastic pod cup. The downside of it being open like that is you can’t store these in a kcup drawer or spinning rack as the exposure to air could significantly affect the flavour of the coffee overtime. I have to store mine in a ziplock or air tight container. Not a fan of this packaging style for that reason.

Yum
I have tried the sugar cookie, vanilla hazelnut, and brownies flavors. I wish this was available through subscribe and save. I love the ability to compost these pods and am currently switch from plastic pods to compostable pods, as well as my reusable pods. I wish these came in larger quantity boxes, as I drink a lot of coffee.Thank you!

Great tasting coffee
First time trying this flavor and let me tell you, its wonderful! If pecan is your thing, then this is a worthy buy! It be nice if they offered this is sizes bigger than 12 pods. The flavor is defined and wonderful and won't let you down! Delivery was super fast and was packed well! I'll be ordering this on a regular basis! One thing I would highly suggest is to put the coffee pods in a resealable plastic recyclable bag to maintain the freshness of the coffee. This is the reason for my 4 star rating.

Disappointing Chemical-like Taste
Sorry, but we did not enjoy this Cinnamon Sugar Cookie Coffee from Cameron's. The coffee had an unpleasant chemical-like taste and after trying 4 pods, we tossed the remainder into the compost bin.

Totally Recyclable
What I like is they are recyclable. What I don't like, is they are recyclable .. meaning. You must close the bag, keep them fresh or they go 'stale'. Can not just toss the pods in my basket (next to the machine) and pick one at will. Flavour is good, not great. Nothing special
