    Caribou Daybreak Morning Blend

    I don't enjoy bitter, strong coffee so I have drunk Caribou coffee for years. Good flavor, and taste. Smooth, an enjoyable cup of coffee. I prefer the light roast but will order the medium roast also. Caribou Morning Coffee wakes me up quietly and gently without turning me into "a Karen". Good coffee.
