Pros & Cons
Pros
The 'coffee and chicory' blend i was raised with in new orleans is a specific taste and i used to call it the original flavored coffee' on my packaging. Many times, coffee is made using 50% community and 50% other full caffeine brands to both add flav... Read More
It has just the right about of bitterness for the perfect cup. Unique flavor that is so mellow. One of the most flavorful coffees out there.
Community is a mainstay in the coffee industry and well respected for a consistent product. Buying this combo at $25 or less is a bargain.
Cons
Very faint aroma of chicory. It tastes like it is old or compounded or roasted incorrectly, or something. All i can say is the coffee was stale.
Unremarkable and disappointing. Is this a bait and switch and i'm told this is non-returnable!

Highlights
Quality
Dark roast taste with the addition of chicory is a winner.
The grind-size works well with drip-machines, pour-overs and it even worked well in an old percolator.
☕️ honestly, it's like little café quality coffee at home!
Another thing that's cool is both brand are equal quality but are totally different in style!
Packaging/appearance
I bought it because of the packaging.
Competitiveness
It's a real bargin in these inflationary times.
Save money by buying ten one pound bricks compared to store prices.
If i perhaps want a 2nd cup in one day, then it's best for me to wait around 4-ish pm, if i have my 1st cup fairly early enough.
