Carte Noire Voluptuoso has a smoother taste (not weaker) than Kenya. Voluptoso is great black without anything added. the Kenya is great when I want to add some half-half and sugar free flavor syrup.

Try the Carte Noire Kenya or the Mastro Lorenzo Crema.
Those 2 are right up the alley of SBux.

Carte Noire Voluptuoso is next of my 'To Try List'.

Well, there are supposed to be three new bold Gevalias coming this summer. I think some of us still hanging are willing to give it the old college try but this is probably Tassimo's last hope in retaining its Starbucks and bold preference customers so they better be fantastic and not just good enough.

No news whatsoever on Kraft partnering with a premium coffee house coffee like Keurig has done.

In the meantime, you might want to look at some of the other European offerings. You will get a smaller cup, though.

I'm looking to replace Starbucks AK and Verona. The Maxwell house and Kenco equate to dishwater! I'm still looking!
