Hello,
I have been tasting several brands/blends of coffee looking for “my perfect cup”.
My interest is in a full, smokey aroma and flavor. Earthy, grassy, caramel, smoke.
I will not hold your feet to the fire and hold you accountable for your opinions. As tastes may vary.
As experts in the coffee industry, I am reaching out to ask, if you were me, what brands/blends would you try?
I look forward to your reply.

Happy, Merry, Ho Ho Ho!
I have been addicted to Dark magic since my sister gave me a new K, for Christmas 2016. My old one had passed on.
Last month I ordered two 48 count. On Christmas day I opened the second one, made my son and his wife a cup, To my surprise when I took my first sip it was like brown water. I went to the kitch looked at the pod, it was breakfast blend! I poured out the rest of the box. All Dark Magic, ? I am not too sure what happened but only One Odd Pod?

To Whom this may concern,
Could you please give me information on how your coffee club cards work at the places where they are distributed. I was under the impression that if you have a coffee club card and you buy six to eight cups from gas stations where they hand out your cards, they are to stamp them to show that you purchased six to eight cups and on the last stamp you should get a free cup.
I have had several cards stamped at various gas stations and they stamp the card every time I purchase a cup. Itdid not seem to matter where the card was stamped.
Recently I went to a Gulf Gas station in the Town of Manchester, CT 163, Silver Lane, 06040.
I wanted my card stamped and the cashier told me they do not stamp any other gas stations’ card. I did not know there were different cards for each gas station? I have never had any problems showing that card at other stations. They all seem to stamp the card. each time I purchase a coffee.
Could you send me a copy of your coffee club rules and regulations. If I am mistaken, it should not matter where I purchased the coffee. I should not have to drive around Manchester to find a place where they have a club card stamped just to purchase a cup of your wonderful coffee. That is ridiculous.
I would appreciate any Thing you could do for me.

I have always purchased your delicious Green Mountain Half/Calf K-cup coffee. I was thrilled your company was probably the first (and maybe only) coffee company to think of a K-cup half/calf blend .But recently you changed the blend. Why? It was so perfect before! Now it tastes like something I can’t even explain except that it tastes nothing like any coffee I have ever had. If your company does not actually create/select/blend the coffee mix, then I request you forward this information to the executive management (or contractor) that actually makes these decisions. I create my own half/calf blend to brew at home but love the quick and easy convenience of my Keurig K-cup coffee maker too. But, now you have lost me as a customer and probably many others. I am so sad to say good bye…..but let me know if you reverse course which would make me and many other customers happy purchasers again!.

To whom it may concern:
My sister and I have enjoyed your Spicy Egg Nog Coffee. We were so very disappointed and upset that it has been discontinued. I have searched the internet looking for some other company that may have it and no one does. By any chance would you still have the spicy egg nog? I would love to surprise my sister with it during the Christmas season. Thanks

I have bought your coffee for many years. However I tuned into Fox News today to see what propaganda and fake news stories they were peddling today and saw your advertisement. I thought you were a conscientious company! I thought you were socially responsible! If so why are you advertising on this awful propaganda channel that espouses lies and misrepresents the truth to the public? I will no longer buy anything from Green Mountain, until you stop advertising on this unamerican propanganda channel (Fox) . My entire family has now committed to boy buy your products as well and we will make others aware so they can stop buying your coffee!

Does fair price mean American standards more or South American standards less.

I want my GM columbian coffee. The Price Chopper where I bought your grind your own beans no longer sells your coffee. Oh, they have a few small bags of flavored stuff. I retired as a Registerd Nurse after years of drinking really bad coffee.
Several years ago I saw a doXXXXentary about how your organization helped pickers, who climbed mountians to pick the wild beans, create a cooperative so they would get a fair price for their work. Big time respect for your company!
I’m retired, hand to mouth income from Social Security. I can’t afford the Keurig coffee system. How can I get your wonderful coffee for a reasonable price?
P.S. I lived in Vermont for 10 years, loved the beliefs and attitudes of the citizens. Especially Uncle Bernie.
