Oh my gosh so good!
This is by far one of the best tasting coffees I've ever tasted. I brewed mine in a Keurig single cup coffee maker. The flavor is amazing. The smell of the coffee just invites you to drink another cup! I had company over and served them this coffee and they all wanted to know what type it was. I guess it was a hit for multiple people in our house! I'm definitely going to purchase this coffee again. Great product!

Not what I expected from Folgers
I got the Black Gold, because I wanted a full bold flavor coffee and I was very disappointed. When you open the package there's no rich coffee aroma and when you brew it there's still no aroma. Which I really like to smell. The coffee wasn't rich it's bitter. So I tried it with creamer and it was still bitter, it tastes like when they were roasting the coffee beans they burnt them. I did like the packaging it's very nice, but the coffee is awful. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

    Great tasting coffee
    This is great coffee. A really good medium roast. I wish it was sold at all Walmart stores. Unfortunately it is carried by very few stores, but is availble on-line. This is such a good coffee that I don't need to add nearly as much cream and sugar. A really good flavor yet not as acidic as regular coffee.

    Folgers 1850 medium Roast
    OK I received this Folgers 1850 Pioneer Blend medium roast, I tried it when I wanted a slightly bolder taste in the morning to get me going. I went by the package directions and dang! that certainly was an eye opener, it was way to strong for my liking so I made another pot using 1/2 the amount suggested and that was much better still a tad bitter but drinkable, actually it made a really good iced coffee for an afternoon treat. I can recommend the Folgers 1850 Pioneer Blend Medium Roast more as an ice coffee treat unless ya'll enjoy strong coffee then by all means go for it. I tried it as an ice coffee with a couple of my favorite flavored creamers that I'm pretty sure most who like a sweet taste will enjoy.

    Nice with a rich roast
    I was happy to be able to test out this new Folgers Pioneer blend Medium Roast. I think Folgers has a nice rich bitter taste in my opinion. This Folgers Pioneer ground coffee gave me that same taste and aroma as a Folgers classic medium roast normally should. I made this with the rich roast setting on my coffee maker and it gave me a nice deep dark color that was very enjoyable. If you are a fan of Folgers coffee and want to try out a new look to change it up I would recommend you give this coffee a shot. If you are hoping this kind of Folgers is completely different then the classic Folgers medium roast then you may not want to seek this out. In my honest opinion I just don't see a major difference between the two but mostly just see this packaging as a new look to show the history of this Folgers Pioneer coffee. This was a pleasant cup of coffee on my rich roast setting. I was happy to give this a shot for my honest opinions. I provided a close up of the coffee pack with it's true color and a close up of what the coffee looks like on my rich roast setting for my coffee maker. I thought this might be something different or have some sort of a twist but why mess with what works anyways.

    Flavorful Coffee
    I received the 12 oz. Folgers 1850 Pioneer Blend Ground Coffee in the Medium Roast for free from the Walmart Spark Reviewer program. This is a new product just released this month from Folgers which is owned by the J.M. Smuckers Company. The name “1850 by Folgers” is so-named because it's the year Folgers was founded during the 1850's Gold Rush in California. This is a new premium artisanal brand for them made with 100- percent Arabica beans. There are four blends available: Lantern Glow Light Roast, Pioneer Blend Medium Roast, Trailblazer Medium-Dark Roast, and Black Gold Dark Roast. It can be purchased in ground, whole bean or in pods. They say each blend is fire-roasted and steel-cut, producing a blend that is strong and smooth, but not bitter. I have to say the Medium Blend, which is middle-of-the-road in strength, was plenty strong. I typically buy the Dark Roast at the coffee shop but add plenty of cream. I didn't make this with the two tablespoons per cup as they recommended. I only used one level tablespoon and it was plenty strong. I did only use 2% milk which might have made a difference. The flavor was smooth and satisfying. The smell of the ground coffee in the bag makes me want some every time I walk passed it!

    Very enjoyable cup of coffee
    Made from 100% Arabica beans, this is an overall delicious blend of coffee. The rich aroma upon opening the bag is wonderful and remains appealing even after brewing. For my first cup, I followed the directions on the bag (2 tablespoons of coffee per 6 fl oz of water). The result was a smooth and well-balanced coffee with no burnt aftertaste to it. I prefer a stronger brew, so for the next batch I added a tablespoon or two more to the pot. Very nice robust flavor and I didn't find it to be too bitter even with the increased strength. This pre-ground coffee is a medium roast, so if some in your family like dark, and others enjoy light, this is a good compromise everyone can appreciate.

    Perfectly mild smooth coffe
    I received this bag of The Folger Coffee Co.(S.F. 1850 Ca.) Pioneer Blend ground coffee in exchange for this review. This is a medium roast coffee. I did enjoy the coffee even though I prefer my coffee a little stronger. It has a very smooth mild flavor, which I like for more of an evening with dessert coffee. If you rather a mild coffee than this would be perfect for you. The directions call for 2 Tablespoons of coffee per 6oz water, my usual brand only calls for 1 heaping tablespoon so this would actually require almost double the amount of product for the same amount of beverage. Since I received it for free I'm not sure of the cost.

    Full Smooth Bold Flavor
    The 1850 Pioneer Blend Medium Roast ground coffee by Folgers, is truly bold, some what nutty, smooth and 100% Arabica coffee. I also tried this coffee in the K-Cups and I prefer the ground since I can adjust the amount of grounds per cup. I prefer a mild or light medium coffee and I found that I can use very little of this ground blend per cup and still have full bodied flavor. Not only is the taste high quality so is the packaging. The package is dark navy blue with white and gold lettering. The package also has a nice brief story of James A Folger blazing ahead during the gold rush. Coffee is always something you just have to try for yourself to appreciate it since we all are individual. However, some coffees stand out above others and Folgers has stood the test of time. I have several coffee machines and I tried this particular ground coffee in a percolator and in a coffee drip machine. The flavor was the same and made a great flavorful cup every time.

    Smooth, but average tasting coffee
    Folgers 1850 Pioneer Blend is a smooth tasting coffee. No acidic after taste. I would compare this to most other run of the mill restaurant coffee. Nothing in the taste to purchase this again in the future. I did not see this product available in two of the grocery stores that I shop at in Columbus, Ohio. I used to drink Folgers coffee years ago and was excited when I got the chance to try the 1850 Pioneer Blend. I was disappointed. It seems to me that more energy went into the packaging and description for marketing rather than offering a new tasting coffee line to their successful product line. When I did research this new blend online I see that it was marketed for millennials. In today's market, there are too many other better tasting coffees available to the consumer including freshly brewed coffee at some of the fast food chains.
