Light Coffee Sampler
So Much Delicious Coffee!
Light roast and dark roast coffee can be very different in taste, flavor, body, and complexity because different amounts of roasting produce distinct characteristics. Which has more caffeine? If you measure your coffee by scoops, light roasted coffee will have more caffeine. Given the beans are denser than a darker roast. However, if you weigh out your scoops, darker roasts will have more caffeine, because there is less mass. The difference between the roasts is in taste, not the amount of caffeine kick!
Marcus loves the rich, full-bodied taste of a bold coffee. I, however, was so pleased to learn that I don’t have to sacrifice the smoother flavor of the lighter roasts that I enjoy to get the caffeine I want! If you prefer the more complex flavor of light roast coffee like I do and would like the convenience of enjoying a variety of multilayered, lighter bodied coffees then this sampler box is the perfect match for you.

My thoughts about the Light Coffee Sampler
Over the years we have tried many of Two Rivers Coffee Sampler Packs and every time we try one of their sampler packs we discover at least one new coffee that one of us becomes a huge fan of. Often these are coffees that neither of us would have tried otherwise. This box was no exception!
From Brooklyn Bean Roastery, we found eight Breakfast Blend and two Breakfast Blend Decaf cups. There were four Morning Roast and two Morning Roast Decaf k-cups from Hamilton Mills. Java Factory didn’t disappoint with its eight Wakey Wakey cups. Realtree made the biggest showing in our box with nine Buckshot Blend k-cups, From Workaholics there were five Take It Sleazy cups. And, last but not least we found two Pier 3 Decafs cups to try. So what’s our new love? Pier 3 Decaf was the only coffee I hadn’t previously had the pleasure of trying. And, yes I have now fallen in love with the smooth flavorful taste that it offers. This and the Brooklyn Bean Roastery Decaf will be enjoyed when it’s too late to have caffeine and we still want to enjoy a cup of coffee.
We are very happy with the variety of the assorted brands that were included in this sampler pack. Each one offers a complex flavor that is multilayered with notes that are unique to its origin. It will definitely be on our wishlist for future occasions.

What a great idea to try a sampler first! There are so many different flavors to choose from! Coffee is my comfy food/drink!! And to have so many different flavors is such a plus!! Thank you for sharing!
I really like that storage drawer. I would be happy trying any of these coffee flavors.
What a great way to try different blends of coffee. Light roast is the perfect blend to start my day.
I like both light and dark roasts, so the review is excellent. I appreciated reading about the product line.
I love sampler packs! You can try ones you normally wouldn’t!
I would love to try these

I learned a lot about light roasts. Maybe I’ve been committed to French Roast for too long.
I like the idea of a sampler….fun to try all the different kinds.
I love trying different types of coffee. I love a lighter coffee at night even though it has more caffeine. I recently found out through DNA testing that I have the gene that makes me metabolize coffee faster and it has less of an effect on me. I always wondered why coffee didn’t keep me awake.
Samplers are the perfect to inspire someone, almost impossible to be disappointed.
I love these samplers. I definitely need one of those drawers!!
Thanks for sharing!
This coffee sampler sounds amazing. There is nothing I hate more than bitter coffee. They all sound like they are pretty smooth….
Thanks for the review! I absolutely love coffee in the drawer it’s pretty handy and cute
Had no idea light roast had more caffeine…I always assumed dark roast had more caffeine.
