Besides being a great tasting cup of coffee, I like the idea that's it's organic as well as a fair-trade product. It was also a great price and ends up costing only 39 1/2 cents per cup. You certainly won't get anything at the big "S" for that price! My husband and I both like this one and have received our second shipment. We've had our Keurig/Breville coffee maker (which we just love!) for about 6 weeks now and have been ordering all varieties of coffee. Coffee People's Tree Hugger, Jet Fuel, Wake Up Call, along with Paul Newman's Extra Bold, are all at the top of our favorite's list so far. Try it, I'm sure you'll like it!

I drink bold k-cups brewed at 7oz with one cream pod.

I just compared my first morning cup of this coffee with my favorite k-cup, Timothy's Rainforest Espresso, and find the Tree Hugger to lack depth. It has neither the strong coffee scent or taste I desire but it is smooth, with no chickory-like bitterness and not nauseatingly weak like some of the flavored coffees.

Unless my family requests it, I won't buy it again.

Added note: I thought I might be too harsh in my review so today I had Rainforest first and Tree Hugger second. Tree Hugger is a decent cup of coffee and better than McDonald's but still not as good as Rainforest.

My favorite K-cup as been Timothys x-bold rainforest blend, and I think treehuggers every bit as good. For me, a 10oz.cup is strong yet mellow, but usually I make it a 14 oz. (take it plain) which is about the strenght of most restaurant coffees. Good restaurant quality pretty much describes this blend. I love that it's it fair trade and organic, but doesn't specify rainforest alliance certification. That is important to me, enough to spend more money, and drink less. Timothys rainforest is certified and that is enough to sway me to their side.

If you like a light to medium roast coffee you can't do much better than this.

This is the absolute best tasting coffee I've tried to date and I've tried quite a few of them. I used to think CP donut shop was good, CP kona was a little better IMO, but tree hugger puts them both on the back burner for me.

This was so good I had to get it on auto delivery, which by the way makes this coffee only $17.25 per 48 k-cups or 36 cents a piece, you can't find a cup this good for a better price.

Tree Hugger is good for those who drink coffee black.
If you put cream in your coffee then you may like Santa Buzz better since it is like Tree Hugger but a little stronger.

In many of these reviews people don't say whether they drink coffee black or with cream, etc. Coffee seems to get toned down when things are added to it.

Honestly, I bought this for the name. I've got a friend who also has a Keurig who is a little right of Cheney who'll get the second box as a gag gift. That said it makes a pretty good cup of coffee. I use the larger of the two settings on my machine so I like a coffee that has a little extra kick to it. The "Fair Trade" is a plus as I'm in favor of those arrangements when reasonable as it appears here. Not as concerned about the organic aspect as it's coffee. If I was that concerned about organic, I probably wouldn't be drinking coffee anyway. I'll probably reload on this if the price stays reasonable. I do tend to bounce around on my k-cups though, that's one of the perks. (pun intended)

Don't be scared off by this being labeled as extra bold because it really is not. I brew this on the 2nd size setting which makes what I call a "normal" sized cup of coffee. It brews a smooth & easy to drink cup. I was looking for a product to have on hand when I have guests. This fit the bill! In comparison I typically drink Wake Up Call which I brew on the tallest (travel mug) size setting & it is really extra bold. Enjoy!!

This Tree Hugger coffee is supposed to be extra bold, but it's not! It is weak tasting compared to the other extra bold K-cups that I drink. I have to make it with very little water, and it still doesn't turn out strong enough for my taste! I would never buy it again. I drink it in the afternoon, to use up what I still have in the box. I usually just drink coffee in the morning.

We've tried a ton of different K-Cups, this one wins easily. Great cup of coffee.

Price was good, but flavor was bitter. I would probably not buy this one again.
