To buy or not to buy: Absolutely buy.
I must admit I had a free coupon for this one. I sat on it for a few days because sincerely, I didn’t expect anything out of the ordinary. You know, the ordinary, nearly non-existent coffee smell, coarse grinds, bitter taste, acid reflux. I noticed they had two types of cans on the shelf, as if in a transition of packages. Great, I thought, they changed the packaging (new look, same product), then gave out coupons for free coffee to make everybody feel good about their name.
I picked what I thought was the better looking package – if I was going to try the new Maxwell House coffee, I better have the prettier package displayed on my counter. Then I admired the yellow band at the top of the can with the text “Vanilla artificial flavor” (how fake could this flavor possibly be?). The can also indicates that I am about to enjoy this coffee brewed out of 100% Arabica beans, medium roasted, for almost $5 for 11 oz.
I consider myself a coffee addict, but like I said, I haven’t had much luck in finding the ideal coffee, the one and only that I couldn’t live without. Well, I think that changed today around 4:17pm: I must say that the Maxwell House Vanilla flavored coffee (yes, that artificial flavor) was the absolute best tasting and smelling coffee I have ever had. The house filled with the sweet taste of coffee, the texture was creamy and the taste divine. I would have had a second cup had it not been so late in the afternoon.
How could this product be improved? The only thing I would suggest is price. The price could get lower (how much does that Vanilla artificial flavor cost anyway?). That, and Maxwell House could make a room freshner with their coffee scent – until then I put the aluminum lid from the can on top of the fridge to give the air its wonderful coffee smell.
