Coffee is a highly recognised aphrodisiac: the caffeine in the coffee endorses hormones that create sexual drive. But, if you’re looking to get laid tonight, don’t choose Keurig Green Mountain coffee for your sweet nothings. Keurig Green Mountain Coffee is a waste of desire, the brew is weak and watery, there is no fine line between bitter or acidic and overly creamy, and the lasting residue is something you don’t want on your tongue.
Keurig is a nationally renowned company. It was founded by some guy somewhere, that nobody really cares about, and apparently he liked coffee. And apparently it wasn't a passion strong enough to make good coffee. As of today the company has sold out 80 various brands and demeaned their 575 beverage varieties. Some of the the brands include, Van Houtte, Donut House, Tierney’s Iced Tea Co., Green Mountain Coffee, and Starbucks. Truthfully, I’ve never even heard of half of these companies-- that must explain the situation. As for the Keurig brewing system, it is specialized in making tea, iced coffee, hot coffee, and cold brew coffee.

For example, the Colombian Blend, while the best of the three flavors, was still less than satisfying. It’s watered down, instant mocha flavor, captured nothing short of ordinary. For as much hype the Keurig brands bestows on it’s coffee, you think they would be able to invent a decent mild brew. It’s flavor was nonexistent and unappealing. For a plus, it had a crisp freshness to it, but if you looking for that, turn on the tap. Nobody wakes her girlfriend up with a cup of colored
If you never had a Caramel Macchiato you are missing out. It is the combination of salty/sweet caramel with smooth milk and a warm/cold coffee finish. It’s basically heaven in a cup - no questions asked. Dunkin’ Donuts while doesn’t have the Caramel Macchiato however, they do have caramel flavored coffee. It’s nothing to compare to the Starbucks Macchiato but, it is a close second.
The alluring aroma of freshly brewed java is both tantalizing and calming to the senses, so much so, that most individuals are unable to fathom a morning or a day without a cup of fragrant, hot coffee in hand. Coffee is one of life’s little indulgences that have become a necessity for some, who find it increasing difficult to live without, as a result, Keurig created an innovative, and unique form of preparation. The Keurig machine makes it possible for a single serving of coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or water without the need to clean the machine in between its use. It eliminates the “stale-tasting” waste that results from the remnants of old coffee, which no coffee drinker desires, and it eradicates the need to clean the pot or brew basket, all this in less than a minute!
The Keurig coffee brewer is the leader in the retail market for single serves coffee brewers but it can do better. Keurig has been slowly losing some of its share of the retail market in recent years. In 2011 Keurig controlled 54 percent of the market which is down from its 2010 number of 60 percent and 2009 number of 63 percent (Geller). Keurig needs to take its product and it has to offer and enter into new markets and segments. It mainly needs to focus on the younger and lower income level of its
During the entire time I was reading your response I had a smile on my face given that Folgers was hands down the best part of waking up for my grandparents. As a result, I have many fond memories of early morning conversations with my grandparents during various stages of our lives and Folgers coffee is part of every one of those memories. Therefore, despite the fact I rarely drink coffee, I have a strong attachment and affinity for the Folgers brand. Subsequently, when I’m shopping and my wife has coffee on the shopping list, Folgers K-Cup Gourmet Coffee always finds its way into my shopping cart, even if another brand is on sale. Nonetheless, thank you for response this week, it unexpectedly elicited several small cherished memories
