i got it to try, and it does smell GREAT when it is brewing.

however...

i found the taste to be a bit...off...somehow. it was almost as if the flavor of the coffee and the flavor of the hazelnut did not come together...they were still 2 distinct and separate flavors.

i'm going to try it again...i find that it is a good idea to come back to discs that you didn't like originally and try them again...maybe add a bit less sweetener or sugar...or vary your cream/half&half amounts...just because of how each coffee has its own "sweet spot" where it shines in flavor.

for example, i wasn't too keen on the CN Kenya at first, but someone on here (maybe Wolfsatz?) wrote that you need to watch your sugar amount with that variety...so i adjusted down to a 1/2 pack of Truvia instead of a whole pack, and WOW...did it make a difference!

that disc is my absolute favorite now....so hopefully, the hazelnut will be better on the 2nd try.

now i want to go try a cup...lol....but since it is almost 9pm, maybe that's not the best idea.

Oh, my, maybe I shouldn't say this but this made me LOL! I didn't notice the typo until you pointed it out! It's ironic as I've seen this same word used to describe the G coffees on reviews.

I know it's only a typo, but that has got to be the funniest thing I've read on here.
From dictionary.com

Swill [swil] ~ noun
1) moist garbage fed to hogs

But I agree, I'd like to try it also.
