    Quality Coffee with Chocolate Undertones

    Delicious Robust low acidity coffee with chocolate undertones. This is my daily go to coffee. We even bring it on vacation when we travel. I used buy it at Homegoods, Marshalls or TJ Maxx. I now have the Amazon Subscription for delivery every 5 weeks; it is a great value!

    Won our household taste test

    Tried a BUNCH of brands, and this one is the best by far. Strong without bitter aftertaste. And it's really good even when it's sat in the insulated carafe long enough to get cold (like, five hours).
