When the single cup coffee maker craze began, we bought a Tassimo rather than a Keurig cuz it was cheaper. Soon found out that for every place you could find TassimoT-discs, there are 10 places to buy the K-cups, and, it seemed, a much larger selection of coffees too. We used the Tassimo until it died and bought a Keurig, but the coffee we could only find in T-disc was Gevalia Swiss Hazelnut. It was like freaking candy, but they don't put it out for Keurig, or even regular coffee pots. There are a bunch of Hazelnut coffees for Keurig out there, but they don't come close to the Gevalia.
I quit drinking coffee 10 years ago based on a recommendation from my Doctor. Strangely enough I don't miss it. And I drank coffee for almost 50 years.
