Product Details Return to Top Tasting Notes Are you after a rough, decadent coffee that stands up to cream and sugar? Sumatra is for you. One of over 13,000 islands in the Indonesian archipelago, Sumatra is a land where coffee is grown by very small shareholders, then purchased from roadsides, consolidated, sorted, and exported. This unusual coffee is processed using a hybrid of the wet and dry processing methods to produce a subdued, huge-bodied, syrupy coffee with an aroma like autumn leaves and a taste reminiscent of butterscotch, herbs, and wild mushrooms.

I have been trying to drink more decaf for some time but found all of them to be either harsh or tasteless. This one is by far the best I have ever had. I'm thrilled with this discovery.Comment on this review10/15/2009 5.0My favorite Coffee ever!

I hate when I run out and have to resort to the other decaf blends that just are too watery and not strong enough for my taste. It tastes like a North Pacific blend.Gift:NoComment on this review10/14/2009 5.0A worthy Decaf cousin to Mahogany By K-Cup Newbiefrom Los AngelesAbout Me ChefProsAttractive Mouthfeel/BodyBalanced AcidityExceptional/Interesting FlavorNot BitterPleasing AromaPleasing RoastSmooth TasteConsBest UsesSingle-Cup/PodsComments about Caribou Coffee K-Cup Sumatran Decaf:I just LOVE Caribou's Mahogany, so I thought I'd try this decaf from the same home for comparison's sake and to have for those occasions when I prefer decaf. I was impressed, as you can see. Rich and full-bodied satisfaction and, as decaf goes, a real standout. I still prefer Mahogany as my daily first-choice, but this Sumatra decaf is a great companion.Gift:NoComment on this review10/1/2009 5.0very roasty blend mmmmmm By judyfrom modesto, caAbout Me Average JoeProsPleasing AromaPleasing RoastConsBest UsesComments about Caribou Coffee K-Cup Sumatran Decaf:i have my 2 cups every mormingGift:NoComment on this review9/15/2009 5.0Great taste By Trichfrom Edmonton, AlbertaAbout Me Coffee ConnoisseurProsAttractive Mouthfeel/BodyExceptional/Interesting FlavorNot BitterPleasing AromaPleasing RoastSmooth TasteConsBest UsesSingle-Cup/PodsComments about Caribou Coffee K-Cup Sumatran Decaf:My favourite decaf when I want a stronger cup of coffee.Gift:NoComment on this review8/21/2009 5.0A Decaf with Teeth By KeurigKrazyfrom Gaithersburg, MDComments about Caribou Coffee K-Cup Sumatran Decaf:Most decafs seem taste wimpy, but this one really has some teeth.
