I was so excited to find out I'd been chosen to sample Folgers Flavors coffee enhancers. They come in four varities...Hazelnut, Caramel, Vanilla and Mocha.
I tried them all...several times...in both cups of regular columbian coffee, and even in large cups of sweet tea. By far, the first three tasted wonderful. The last one was very dissapointing. It didn't taste like mocha or chocolate in any form...it tasted more like bitter metal.
Maybe I just got a bad bottle of the Mocha, but I strongly advise you to give the others a try before risking getting a foul tasting container of the Mocha one. I plan to add these to my shopping list for the foreseeable future.
The best benefit these coffee enhancers had for me was lessening my desire to add as much sugar to my cups of coffee. I actually used Zing sweetener in most cups I've made so far, and only one packet of natural sweetener each time. I topped most of them off with cinnamon..which added just the taste that I was craving. I haven't tried combining any of these enhancers yet, but I see that sort of experiment in the very near future.
Here's a copy of the review I wrote for the Folgers website:
