Horrible artificial sweetener taste!
Horrible artificial sweetener taste that stays in your mouth! The ingredients list no sweeteners. This coffee tastes like nothing BUT artificial sweetener. And the taste won’t leave your mouth. Absolutely awful.

Might want to RECALL this product?
As others have noted, the “natural flavors” or sweeteners don’t describe what’s actually in the product, misleading the consumers. Hopefully it isn’t stevia, which is in the eastern ragweed family and an allergen to many ppl.
The brown sugar name is misleading. Label correctly or prepare for lawsuits.
Best of luck.

Best coffee ever
I am OBSESSED with this coffee!! Hands down, the best flavor available. Just ran through 10 bags & I am so disappointed that it's only available from January to June; I've been looking for it for months!!! I am counting down to January!

My Favorite Starbucks Flavor!!!
I absolutely LOVE this flavor. This is my favorite Starbucks coffee. I normally get the Cinnamon Dolce but this is much better than that. I can taste more cinnamon in this one. Please, please make this a permanent flavor.

Make this a permanent flavor!!!!
This is the BEST coffee my husband & I have ever had!! We drink LOTS of coffee and we LOVE Starbucks! We typically purchase Starbucks brand ground coffee and out of all the flavors we’ve had, this is the best and we’re so sad it’s limited edition and we only discovered it now! Please make this a permanent flavor!!!!

My favorite flavor
I absolutely love this flavor. I look forward to mornings and having my cup of this coffee. I buy the bag of ground coffee and I refuse to drink any other flavor. I am begging you to please make this flavor available all the time. please don't change it or take it away. The cinnamon roll flavor fits perfect with the brown sugar. Not to sweet trust perfect.

Another Complaint About The Fake Sweet Taste
There is an artificial-tasting sweetness. I don't like sugar in my coffee and never would have purchased this. All ingredients should have been listed on the package, regardless of the fact they are natural. It's deceiving.

Taste like fake sugar
This coffee definitely has a fake sweetener taste to it. So disappointed that it wasn’t disclosed on the package. People who drink their coffee black do not like sugar, especially fake sugar. This coffee would be good if you left that crap out. I think Starbucks needs a redo!

Buyer beware….Don’t drink the koolaid!
Well my wife bought this because she thought the flavor sounded good.
I love coffee! I drink it hot, I drink it cold, drink it 3 days old. It doesn’t matter if it’s black or flavored.
This flavor you ask? NASTY!
The aftertaste (fake sweetener) is horrible. I will be throwing them in the trash.

Artificially sweetened
Awful! I was not expecting it to be sweet. Like other Starbucks k-cups, I was expecting a hint of flavors. I do not take sugar or sweeteners in my coffee. I just wasted money because I’m throwing them all out.

BEWARE! Fake “natural” sweet additive ruins taste
Horrible artificial sweetener taste. Throwing the whole bag out, so disgusting. I want my money back. The package is certainly not properly labeled. Starbucks has clearly added some “natural” sweet additive, perhaps stevia or something similar, but should have warned customers. Just because it has no calories doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be disclosed when it is a fake swee...

Very Disappointed
Wayyyy too sweet. The cinnamon flavor is lost as well as the actual coffee taste. Very disappointing. I now have a number of keurig cups I won’t use. Hopefully I can give them away to someone with a sweet tooth
