Sunday's Secret Single Serve

-


What good does it do you for me to enjoy a new coffee and not be able to tell you about it?

 None, really.  

 Except to give you hope that there's something on the horizon that will really make you smile if you like the convenience of single-serve coffee.

 One of my very favorite roasters provided me with a "prototype," if you will of a single serve coffee that is not quite ready to be unveiled.  I can't even show you the packaging!

 All I can say is this - it's worth the wait.  The measurement is perfect, there is no residue at the bottom of the cup and it stays super fresh.

 I tried a medium roast that was absolutely delicious.

 The secret - well, I can't tell you the whole secret, but I can tell you that they're going with a patented method to ensure the freshest, most true to roast flavor, from a single serve cup (a la K-Cup(TM)) model.

 That's all I can say right now.  But, I promise once I get the 'green light,' I'll give you the whole 4-1-1.

 I guess if you have to keep a secret, Sunday is probably the best day to do it.

You may not have noticed, but Eight O'Clock Coffee (which I used to refer to as Eight O'Clock Bean Coffee) has experienced a new attitude. There's new packaging and now there is even an Eight O'Clock K-Cup(R). I enjoy and delight in experiencing artisan roasted coffee and I can ride the "third wave" as good as the next person, but sometimes I just want to remember the way things used to be. So, the Eight O'Clock K-Cup  is the perfect way to enjoy a coffee that's always had a special place in my heart - but with a new twist. All these new single-serve coffees are making me lazy. But, don't worry, I'm an equal opportunity coffee-lover. Here's to the weekend!

All Time Favorite Coffee Jingles

I have consumed a lot of coffee over the last couple of decades, but it's mainly through "trial and error," "word of mouth," or "pure luck," that I found those I've enjoyed the most. And, of course, the folks who reach out and let me know about the great coffees that are out there. But with micro roasters becoming more and more popular, and grocery store coffee being talked about less, even though many supermarket varieties are very good, I can't help but remember some of those jingles and television commercials that remain etched in my mind. Some of my favorite coffee jingles: "Good to the Last Drop" (TM) (Maxwell House) "Richness Worth A Second Cup" (TM) (Yuban) "The Best Part of Waking Up, Is Folgers In Your Cup" (TM) And, last but not least, drumroll. . . .my all-time favorite: "Fill It To the Rim With Brim" (TM) (Brim Decaffeinated Coffee) (special thanks to my sister for remin...
