Default Walmart Great Value coffee

Sheldar here has often told us about how good this coffee is.
Here's a backup review that I saw in another ng a few days ago.

For years I found Peets, Starbucks, Cafe Trieste, boutique
coffees,etc., to be overpriced, but acceptable. Then they entered
into
rip-off prices. Thus, I switched to TJs, but then TJs too entered
the
rip-off zone.

So, I have been trying various reasonably priced brewing coffees.
The
latest, which I've been trying for several days is Walmart's
Great
Value brand Colombian coffee. I paid $3.80 for a 12 oz bag.
Without
waxing poetic about flavor complexity, under taste, aroma, etc.,
suffice
it to say, it's handily in the same flavor zone as Peets,
Starbucks,
TJs etc. It certainly tastes better than Farmers Brothers,
Costcos
Kirkland brand, etc. and it tastes way, way, better than the
usual
lowbrow Folgers, Hills Brothers, Maxwell House, etc.

I am no doubt buying the larger quantity of it next time.

Unfortunately, it doesn't come in whole bean, so I'll still pay a
tad
more for such. A good bang-for-the-flavor-buck whole bean I've
found is
Seattle's best, which I use for espresso.
