Gently balanced acidity, medium body, silky mouthfeel. Sweet-toned in the cup, with continued caramel, toast and citrus notes.

By Mark Twainfrom VermontAbout Me Everyday DrinkerProsAccommodates All Cup SizesConsPricey / Poor ValueBest UsesComments about Barista Prima® House Blend:"The difference between Barista Prima and other coffees is the difference between lightening and the lightening bug!" -Mark TwainComment on this review12/14/2012(1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) 5.0Hard to beat By Topofmurrayhillfrom New York, NYAbout Me Everyday DrinkerProsConsBest UsesComments about Barista Prima® House Blend:I'm very averse to watery-tasting coffee, so I lean towards the bolder K-Cups and never brew more than 8 oz. This was one of the first K-Cups I tried and it remains my favorite. For the sake of variety, I always buy other K-Cups with every order (including new ones to try out), but I still haven't found another with such a combination of rich flavor, smoothness and a nice finish with no bitter aftertaste. Although I do enjoy some of the darker roasts and super-bold blends, I think Barista Prime House Blend has the best overall balance of qualities for people who like a bold K-Cup. Try it out.Comment on this review6/23/2012(3 of 3 customers found this review helpful) 5.0Good cup of coffee By Morning Josiefrom CT USAAbout Me Everyday DrinkerProsAccommodates All Cup SizesConsBest UsesEverydayHomeOfficeWeekendsComments about Barista Prima® House Blend:This was a great cup of coffee. I struggle to find a cup of coffee that tastes as good as it smells. This is a medium roast but has a bit of a bite to it. Not as strong as Starbucks. Nice flavor.Comment on this review6/2/2012(1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) 4.0Deliciousness in a cup By TwinCinfrom Castleton,NYAbout Me Everyday DrinkerProsConsBest UsesEverydayComments about Barista Prima® House Blend:Delicious!! Usually drink Dark Magic but this is just as good if not better. Don't go by the price, it reduces down to just .72/cup. How many people spend $2.50 on a cup of coffee at their local coffee house. This is much better!!!Comment on this review2/14/2012(2 of 2 customers found this review helpful) 4.0Great everyday coffee for me.

It was the main reason that we kept the account and paid the ridiculously high GM prices. However, the last order was a particularly inferior "gas station" coffee with the Barista label plastered on top. We could not have been more disappointed, and can't decide whether the account is worth keeping. It will be a long time before we order any more GM coffee!Comment on this review10/14/2011(0 of 1 customers found this review helpful) 1.0Too Strong-omg By Ingafrom NJAbout Me Everyday DrinkerProsConsBest UsesToo wake up a zombieComments about Barista Prima® House Blend:This coffee is incredibly strong. I love trying the best of the best, and I thought House Blend was a good choice...that is until I had my first cup. I ended up giving half the box away, which then was given away to someone else.Comment on this review10/6/2011 4.0Delicious By cyberdolfrom central indianaAbout Me Coffee AficionadoProsJust right not bitterConsPricey poor valueBest UsesEverydayComments about Barista Prima® House Blend:Everyday morining and evening.
