GREEN MOUNTAIN'S "DOUBLE BLACK DIAMOND" K-CUP (TM)

-


Green Mountain's "Double Black Diamond" has a new look.  Happy to say it hasn't affected the flavor.  It's just as good, if not better, than I remembered it when I tried it the first time.

 As you know, I prefer a dark roast coffee, but I'm really making an effort to appreciate the medium, and even light - yes, I said, light, roast coffees.

 However, it's kind of hard when the K-Cups(TM) keep getting darker and better.

 Honestly, if given a blind taste test, I don't think I would have noticed the difference between this K-Cup(TM) and a pot of freshly brewed coffee.  

 While I don't use the Keurig the majority of the time, I love the fact that it's there when I need it.  It's quick, convenient, no mess and the only thing I have to clean is my mug.  

 Green Mountain is excellent coffee.  No doubt about that.  And they have really perfected the K-Cup(TM).  In my opinion, it's far superior to the original K-Cups(TM) when they came on the scene.  I used to think of the K-Cup(TM) as the coffee for when you don't have any other coffee.  Now, it's become part of my regular rotation.

 Available at Cross Country Cafe.  And the cool thing about Cross Country Cafe is that you can get all of your favorite Keurig products and coffees without leaving your computer.

 You can get 24 of the "Double Black Diamond" K-Cups for $13.99 at:

Face your fears head on with the Double Black Diamond extra bold, dark roast Keurig Kcup coffee. Dark roast is an understatement, this is perhaps the darkest of the Keurig Kcup coffees. The aromas are amazing, the taste is heavy bodied, toasty and delicious! Double Black Diamond Keurig Kcup coffee is an extra bold coffee that is strong enough to stand up to the highest water setting of your Keurig brewer. The truly brave drink it black but it tastes decadent with cream. *

It's Not Your Mother's Eight O'Clock Coffee - Columbia Single Serve Cup

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
