Default Dunkin Donuts coffee/New England Coffee Question

I'm new here so forgive me if this is the wrong place to ask this or if it's
been asked a million times or if it's just a stupid question!!

I love Dunkin Donuts coffee. I recently learned that the New England Coffee
Co roasts the Dunkin Donuts coffee.

Does that mean I can buy New England Coffee blend and it will taste like
Dunkin Donuts coffee? Does anyone know which blend of New England Coffee is
the most similar to Dunkin Donuts Original Blend?

Thanks for any help! This would be great if true!

Oh, it's alright. Just be sure to stay awhile and get a feel for what's
talked about. Soon you'll be roasting your own and laughing at Dunkin'
Donuts coffee! (not really...but it's somewhat like that).

Good questions. No clue. Neither or them are particularly low in price, so
I'm not sure of your motivation for asking. And if you would like to find
out, you could call, or simply try both and compare.

On another note, I honestly like Dunkin' Donuts. It's not bad coffee and
soon they're supposed to be starting to use Fair Trade. I mean, it's not
particularly unique or exotic, but on some mornings where there isn't time
to brew my own at home, or some weeks when I don't have time to roast, I'm
not opposed to their coffee. It is funny though--they're the only place in
this country where you can go in and ask for a regular coffee and they'll
put cream and sugar in it for you.

I found that regular coffe meant cream and sugar at most
restaurants in Boston and just assumed it was a local thing....

I love it too! But not necessarily the already brewed kind from the
store, which, if fresh, is okay, but seems to have a strange and
unique foreign flavor all its own. I buy the bean and grind it at
home, and strangely it does not have that flavor.

In fact, after running all over New York City trying often more
expensive beans from places like Fairway, Zabars, Eli's, etc., it's
become my fallback standard weekly purchase. It's consistent, fairly
cheap (the recent two lbs for $10 holiday special was a godsend to a
cheap-o like me) and it has the flavor I like, all high-note and winey
with a bite, kind of like Zabar's Kenya AA (except without Zabar's
consistency problems). I also love that I can travel anywhere and not
have to worry if I run out.

You can also order it from "Your Morning Cup" at 516-345-CAFE and brew
it at home. DD coffee is made by New England Coffee company and is
available exclusively through Your Morning Cup (
www.yourmorningcup.com ) for that same great taste at home or in the
office! All locations in the NY metro area and long island they will
deliver it to your doo. Anywhere else they can ship it UPS or another
methode of choise. By the way, you are correct, in NY (and Long
Island) Regular means 2 sugars, and enough milk to be dark brown...
