I drink a ridiculous amount of coffee. In fact, I like to have just enough coffee where I begin to levitate above my own body.
Each week I plan on showcasing a K-Cup that helps me achieve this goal. This week, Green Mountain Coffee’s Dark Magic.
I will review the delicious cup on an "official" coffee grading system that emphasizes four critical categories: (1) Aroma; (2) Strength; (3) Taste; (4) Marketing Tactics that Forced Me to Force My Office to Purchase Said K-Cup. I will conclude each review with an Overall grade.
Aroma: 8
Dark Magic doesn’t quite sting the nostrils, but the office will know you are drinking some Joe.
Strength: 8
I usually drink 2 cups of coffee at the office. After the second cup of Dark Magic (20 ounces deep), I begin to levitate. This is a bold coffee. Amazon's tasting notes provide that Dark Magic has "Spellbinding complexity. Deep, dark and intense."
Taste: 7
Not bitter, but not the smoothest coffee I have ever tasted.
Marketing Tactics that Forced Me to Force My Office to Purchase Said K-Cup: 6
It's hard not to be intrigued by a beverage called Dark Magic. Anything magical at the office is a must try in my opinion.
Overall: 8
If you are looking for a reliable, bold coffee for your Keurig morning routine, give Dark Magic a try.
