Starbucks House Blend Coffee has aroma, body and flavor all in balance. House Blend is a medium roast with notes of cocoa and toffee. The Story of House Blend: It’s deceptively simple. A blend of fine Latin American beans roasted to a glistening, dark chestnut color. Loaded with flavor, balancing tastes of toffee and cocoa, just a touch of sweetness from the roast. This coffee is our beginning, the very first blend we ever created for you back in 1971. And this one blend set the course for the way our master blenders and roasters work even today. A true reflection of us and a delicious cup of coffee, period. It all starts from here. From K-Cup to the Perfect Cup: It's easy to brew the perfect cup at home with your favorite Starbucks K-Cup pods. You'll discover a variety of blends to fit your mood, the season or the tastes of gathered guests. Adding a touch of inspiration like milk, cream, syrup or a variety of other customizations lets you put a personal twist on your favorite Starbucks brew. Starbucks K-Cup pods make a perfect cup of coffee easy to enjoy—whether it's a moment at the start of a new day, or as a reward at the end of a long one.
