This is Folgers? Yup! Deep, dark, smoky but smooth. No hint of bitterness so often found in extra dark roasts. This is a coffee with chops.
Let me back up a bit. Awhile ago I wrote about Folgers Gourmet Supreme. At that time it was the darkest roast Folgers produced and both Veronica and I...

When I first discovered Folger's Black Silk, I thought "Wow! Folger's has stepped up!" Boy, was I wrong. It was a step down. I bought 2 large containers and would not but it again.
It's just plain dark and bland! There's very little flavor and NO bite at all.
It's pretty... but worthless!

I recently discovered Black Silk, what an awesome surprise. I like my coffee to be able to stand up to cream, therefore, I like a darker, bolder taste. Many dark roast coffees taste burnt; Black Silk is smooth, I no longer add sugar; I add a little soy milk and I am a happy person with less calories and great taste. The price is awesome for such a great cup of coffee--bye, bye Starbucks!

I would recommend "Folger's Black Silk. It has a rich, dark ,smooth taste that I like. I enjoy a lot of European Coffee's and Folger's Black Silk reminds me of a few European Coffee's.
Since "Folger's Black Silk" coffee grounds are very fine, it uses less coffee per cup.
Coffee lovers have to like coffee that has a strong and robust flavor to enjoy " Folger's Black Silk.

Black Silk is the exact point where robust and smooth meet. This is an excellent coffee where if your taste buds aren't incinerated by hot sauce, habenaros and cigarettes you will revel in the delicate clarity of its stout charecter. If you like bitter coffee with an acidic bite and loitering caustic aftertaste you won't like this coffee. I liken it to a fine wine that has a delightful opening then moves to a significant body and then developes into a refined, clear finish. This is the journey every sip will bring to you.
I fall asleep at night with a smile knowing this great joy awaits.
I bought Folgers Black Silk on the reduced rack in my grocery store for 3.49 they had 2 I had a 1.00/2 coupon which made the deal even SWEETER!!!
I am not a Coffee expert BUT I really liked the flavor & after taste of this blend. I am always on the hunt for the best & most flavorful coffee at a price I can afford. This was a GREAT bargain.. But at 8.99 a container a little pricey. But I LOVED the Flavor
My husband and I have been hooked on Folgers Black Silk coffee since the first sip. We are huge coffee lovers and were skeptical about the quality and taste of ground Folgers coffee. It is a dark roast and has lots of flavor. It is great for entertaining and we take it with us wherever we go and share it with others. The flavor is very rich and bold. This is a great value for such great coffee!
Folgers black silk coffee is not a coffee that I would buy again. I loved the creamy chocolate flavor but Folgers black silk coffee had a black pepper taste to it. I don't like black pepper. I won't be buying Folgers black silk coffee again because of the black pepper taste.
