How to Use
Lift the brewer handle, insert one pod, close the lid, and choose your cup size. Peet's recommends the 8 oz (237 mL) setting for the fullest flavor; the 6 oz setting makes a stronger cup, and a larger setting gives a lighter one. For iced coffee, brew a 6 oz cup directly over a glass full of ice. Store the box in a cool, dry cupboard away from heat and light and use the pods by the best-by date printed on the box.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Peet's Major Dickason's Blend K-Cup contain allergens?
No. Each pod contains only 100 percent Arabica ground coffee, and no allergens are declared on the box. The coffee is caffeinated and unflavored. If you have a specific sensitivity, read the printed ingredient statement on the box you receive, since packaging information is the final source for any product.
How do I brew Peet's Major Dickason's K-Cup pods?
Place one pod in any Keurig K-Cup brewer, close the handle, and select a cup size. Peet's suggests 8 oz (237 mL) for the intended strength; choose 6 oz for a bolder cup or brew over ice for iced coffee. Do not reuse a pod. Keep unused pods sealed in the box in a dry cupboard.
What does Major Dickason's Blend taste like compared to other Peet's roasts?
Major Dickason's is Peet's flagship dark roast: rich, full-bodied, and smooth, with low acidity and a deep roasted character. It is bolder than Peet's medium roasts such as Big Bang, and rounder than the very dark French Roast. If you like a strong, satisfying cup without bitterness, this is the classic choice.
How many pods are in the box and how long will they last?
The box holds 75 sealed K-Cup pods with a total net weight of 2.03 lb (921 g). At one cup a day that is about two and a half months of coffee. Each pod is individually sealed, so the coffee stays fresh until you brew it; use the pods by the date stamped on the box.
I originally tried Peet's coffee (medium roast, Big Bang) via an influenser thing, and was impressed by how bold it was for a medium roast. I really enjoyed it. My preference is dark roast coffee, black, unsweetened.. the darker the better. I want it bold, smooth, and chewy. I figured if Peet's can make a gorgeous dark leaning medium, then I must try one of their actual dark roasts. So I came here to find some. This is good! It is strong for a K-cup. I usually brew k-cups at 8 ounces for best flavor, but this can be easily brewed at 10 ounces. Try 6 ounces for extra bite, or for pouring over ice. I intend to try their other dark roasts, and even their decaf (occasionally I still want coffee but dont want the caffeine). This Major Dickason's Blend has a little something I can't quite pinpoint. It has a hint of tang that I normally avoid, yet that deep undertone of dark roasts keeps it solidly in my favor. I really like this, but it is maybe #2 or 3 in my list of preferred coffee, but it is on the list of coffee I would repurchase!. I see that they also offer other dark roasts, so I will be sure to try them out. My usual dark roasts are:San Fransisco Bay Extra Dark Italian RoastGreen Mountain Dark MagicAs for others in my household, my husband drank some and he is more of a Caribou medium or light roast drinker (blegh). I had my mom over for coffee, and I made this for her. She never knows what I am making, but usually it is a medum or dark roast. She definitely noticed that this was different and very good. She thought it had a good strong coffee flavor. She added a little cream and sugar.I'm pleased. My box of loose cups is exactly as expected. No problems, no issues, no concerns. Will highly likely buy again.
Always loved Peet's coffee. Has the best flavor and strength, it's compatible with almost every meal, I really liked it but now I drink tea. It's a decent value for its money, just for the taste and the flavor it's worth it.
Great coffee quality, love the freshness and texture of this dark roast, easy on the belly and the K cups are easy to use
Good toasty roast quality aftertaste. I liked it better than Starbucks French roast or the Beets medium. Good quantity compared to Starbucks and just as strong.
One of the best coffees I have had. Strong. Not bitter. Smooth and great taste. Would recommend it to any coffee lover.
I love this coffee blend. However approximately 10 of the 75 k-cups were Eight O'Clock Coffee brand. Do better.
If you’re looking for the perfect balance of quality and convenience, look no further. I’ve tried countless brands, but this has officially become my all-time favorite go-to coffee. The taste is remarkably smooth and consistent. It features rich, chocolatey undertones with just a hint of caramel sweetness—no bitter aftertaste or burnt notes here. It’s bold enough to wake you up but smooth enough to drink black (Which is the way I like my coffee - Black and Bitter like my soul). For the quality of the beans, the price point is fantastic. It rivals some of the high-end specialty roasters I used to frequent, but at a fraction of the cost per ounce. This is my go-to on monthly auto-order through Amazon. The Subscribe & Save discount makes the value even better, and I never have to worry about that "emergency" morning where the bag is empty. It arrives at my door like clockwork, perfectly fresh every time.
Peet’s Coffee Major Dickason’s Blend is, hands down, the dark roast that all other dark roasts wish they could be. From the first sip, this blend greets you with a smooth yet powerful depth that balances boldness and richness without tipping into bitterness. It’s like a symphony in a cup: earthy, complex, and full-bodied with that satisfying “wake-you-up” strength that true coffee lovers crave. It’s no wonder this blend has earned a near cult following—and I’m happily among them.These K-Cups make it easy to enjoy barista-level flavor with single-serve convenience. I’ve tried plenty of pods from other brands that promised dark roast intensity but delivered watered-down disappointment. Not so here. Each pod brews a strong, aromatic cup every time, and the flavor holds up even with a splash of cream or a dash of oat milk. It tastes fresh and potent—none of that stale, cardboard taste you sometimes get from bulk pod packs.Value-wise, the 75-count box is a steal, especially when you catch it on sale like I did. At under 50 cents per pod, it’s far more affordable than daily coffee runs, but the quality doesn’t suffer one bit. In fact, many guests who’ve tried it at my house have been shocked it came from a Keurig and not a French press or pour-over setup. That’s how well-crafted this roast is.Whether you’re jump-starting your morning, powering through work, or settling in for a late-night writing session, Major Dickason’s Blend delivers that warm, roasty comfort you can count on. There’s no acidic aftertaste or artificial sharpness—just clean, dark roast perfection.If you’re searching for a bold, no-nonsense coffee that’s as smooth as it is strong, Peet’s Major Dickason’s Blend is your match. Once you go Peet’s, you may never go back.
