What is your favorite brand of coffee and why do you like it? While I
have always like Maxwell House, I have been exploring other coffees and recently ordered some from Cafe Du Monde. Anyone ever have it? I've also had Gevelia, and it's not bad, but sort of expensive. I plan on trying Starbucks soon. And you? Mark Ferrante |

Mark Ferrante I like the many blends Gevalia offers but I had to stop ordering it because I don't drink all that much coffee. Starbucks, IMO, is overrated. Cafe du Monde? Is that coffee with chicory? My fiance brings me some sort of coffee at times on his trips back from Lousiana... let me think... oh! it's Community coffee with chicory. Historical note: chickory was added during the American Civil War to stretch, if not replace, the coffee reserves. Ditto in WWII. In fact, it was often brewed by itself as faux coffee. Jill |

My family likes Arvid Nordquist mellanrost, which a friend from Sweden introduced to us as a better alternative to Gevalia. It is expensive in the U.S. but ~$3 a half kilo (about a pound) in Sweden. We like it because it is flavorful and smooth, not harsh or bitter. gloria p |

Montecristo brand for me. They have some outstanding African coffee blends
as well as a find Cuban blend. They also package estate grown Blue Mountain beans. For daily brew I like Chock Full of Nuts. Paul "FERRANTE" wrote in message ...

Ethiopian 'Horse' Harrar blended 2:1 with 'Grade 1' Sulawesi Toraja and a bit of Ugandan Bugisu tossed in, roasted about 15 seconds into second crack. That's my favorite this week. Life's too short for shitty coffee. My favorite is Millstone beans, I grind them at home, I like flavored coffees and will skip around , sometimes the flavors, sometimes the breakfast blend. Rosie |

We love coffee, but are limited to decaf. Wish I could find a decent decaf coffee... ;o( On Sat, 18 Oct 2003 16:04:58 -0400, FERRANTE wrote: What is your favorite brand of coffee and why do you like it?
