I've tried 15-20 different k-cups and would rate Timothy's Parisian Night (can you say French Roast) in the top third. At the 7.25 oz setting it makes a full-bodied, dark brew with a nutty, almost earthy taste. It's very much a European-style blend, and with a dash of half and half makes a passable Viennese 'brauner.'

Buy this coffee if you enjoy a great strong tasting coffee.

I've found Timothy's K-cups to be consistently good, better than the Green Mountain varieties I've tried (with the G.M. exceptions of Nantucket and Newman's Own.) But Parisian Night is the first Timothy's offering that didn't impress me. I bought two boxes of it from Amazon and have tried using different brew strengths, but it always tastes bland. It's bold and strong as advertised, but plebeian. To someone who's just bought a Keurig and had this blend as their first cup, it might taste pretty good; but compared with all the other, better K-cup varieties that are available, this one is better off skipped. I think it's just a fancy name for a boring blend that has nothing distinctive about it at all. Their "Midnight" dark roast is definitely more tasty, and even better than that are their Columbian and Italian K-cups, which are very smooth. I think Timothy's has the best Columbian K-cups on the market. But Parisian Night, well...let's just say that everybody makes mistakes!

I've tried quite a variety of K cups and this is my favorite. Prior to this I liked the Van Houtte Eclipse blend (and still do), but this is a little smoother. As other reviewers have said, it's a very strong cup, but with a smooth finish. Perhaps the negative reviewer likes a little bite at the finish, which this doesn't have.

These coffee pods are strong enough to make a good 8 oz. cup of coffee, and are much better than many of the other k-cups, which I have found too weak.

Of all the K-Cups I have tried so far, this is the most full flavored and robust roast. I would recommend this product to anyone who uses K-Cups and likes a full bodied coffee.

We love our Keurig maching and this coffee is rich dark and delicious. Very smooth and strong. Yum!

I bought this coffee for work as we were bored with our current selection and it was a massive hit. It has nice rich flavour with no nasty after taste.

This is one of my two favorite K-Cup coffees. The other is Timothy's World Coffee, Extra Bold Rainforest Espresso. I use a little half and half and need a coffee with enough strength to taste rich with the cream. I tried these because they both have 25% more coffee than other k-cups. These 2 Extra Bold coffees have enabled us to use our Keurig as an everyday coffee maker. It is great having a rich, fresh cup of coffee without the mess of grinding and cleaning!

When we started up our new Keurig Brewer, we tried over 40 different coffees
over several months and recorded our overall preferences on a scale of 1 to
5. Each coffee was rated several times. The overall winner was Timothy's
Extra Bold Parisian Nights coffee, and now we seldom drink any other.
