The actual coffee taste is fine, it's balanced and light and I don't find it vary acidic; but it is way too sweet for me. I really wish there was an unsweetened version of this for those that don't like there coffee sweetened or diabetics.
No, I do not recommend this product.

This coffee is OK, but it's not as good as Gazebo used to be. I've been waiting 3 years or them to bring it back ...Starbucks guys, are you listening???

i like this kind of coffee, but i dont "love it" like i did the Gazebo Blend, (now not made anymore, sadly) 1. no matter how much grinds you use,it comes out way too acitic. 2. it does not taste anything like the perfect! gazebo blend that was discontinued in late 2010. yes, i am only an iced coffee drinker, and yes i do put up with this blend, but i much rather prefer the Gazebo blend. Dear Starbucks please bring back the Gazebo Blend, its not the same, its far from the same

Good coffee

Most iced coffees you buy are a sort of blonde roast. This isn't, and that's a good thing. This is a bit of a darker roast with a full flavor. I find that it has a sort of snap when you first drink it, and it has an after taste that really lets you know that you're drinking a coffee. This is really nice compared to your run of the mill iced blends that are too sweet. You can still have a coffee taste with the refreshment of an iced coffee with this blend.
Yes, I recommend this product.

My son and I were noticing we were purchasing an awful lot of iced coffees from Starbucks so we decided to buy what we needed to make our own, which was the iced coffee blend and a frenchmpress. It's delicious and taste exactly like you get in the store because it is exactly what you get in store. My son and I have two iced coffees a day and doing it this way has saved us money! I highly reccomend this blend. Thank you!

THIS Iced Coffee is NO Gazebo

Can't say how disappointed I am with this blend. It pales in comparison to Gazebo. I completely understand the desire to appeal to coffee drinkers on a broader scale, but you're homogenizing :(
I've just ordered another Iced Coffee Blend which is described as A bold, bright and refreshing blend of East African coffees artfully crafted to enjoy on ice. WHAT GAZEBO was and what an Iced Coffee should be!!!
BRING BACK GAZEBO!!!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

This coffee is exactly like the Barista version from Starbucks, with the added benefit of being able to brew it fresh and have it in your refrigerator whenever you want it. With a little half&half and splenda, this smooth, bright coffee could quickly become your next addiction. My husband is proof. Before I bought this blend he usually refused coffee of any type, iced or hot. Now he will actually request a glass, and be slightly offended if I don't offer to make him a glass when I make one for myself. Delicious!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I drank this only. All summer. Straight. If your a go hard coffee drinker, or you're just a person who prefers the natural taste in beverages like me, you'll love this. No sugar (gross) no milk (ick). BLACK. ICED. COFFEE. Perfection. This is the best blend.
It was so good that I bought the half pound to brew for myself. SO DELICIOUS. (And saved me a good penny lol) If Starbucks has a different blend in the making, this one is going to be hard to beat. And if you all do create a different blend. PLEASE KEEP THIS ONE AS THE ORIGINAL! Its too good to not be here another summer.
Yes, I recommend this product.

My Favorite Starbucks Coffee

Okay, to be honest I am not that big of a coffee drinker. I'm also not a big fan in general of Starbucks coffee. This coffee, however, is by far my favorite that they offer, and one of my favorites anywhere.
I do prefer iced over hot coffee, and this particular coffee does the job. I actually look forward to drinking it in the morning. I am a bummed that it is seasonal, and I really hope they bring it back next year.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Before this was available, I tried making Starbucks iced coffee with some of their other blends and just couldn't get it right. I don't like hot coffee, only iced. I drink this strong with a little caramel syrup and recommend it to my friends who enjoy iced coffee. (and it saves me from using gas to get to my local Starbucks for my iced coffee fix!)

Because I love Starbucks Iced Coffee and Coffee Frappacino's from my local Starbucks I thought I'd give this a try. I like it with Milk, my Husband does not. Making a pot like I did a couple of nights ago and waking up to it brewed and ready to go, makes these hot summer days very refreshing. I'll take some to work in my Customizable Cold Cup 24oz. and enjoy it all day long.

It seemed like no matter how much or how little coffee grinds I used this turned out tasting bitter and acidic for me. I don't have this problem with other starbucks coffee's. Too bad because I like iced coffee, but not this blend.

Iced Coffee Made at Home

While I enjoyed their iced coffee blend, I do wish they made it available for purchase in decaffeinated. I made it regular strength (not what they said on the side of the package) and I still had to add water to it as it was very strong. But over all it was very flavorful and did not have the burnt taste that their coffee has sometimes.
I also was unaware that they can grind any of their whole beans for you and they actually will ask what type of coffee maker you use and what type of filters.
This iced coffee is great. I don't much care for the iced coffee made in the store. This blend is much less bitter, therefore much more drinkable and refreshing!
