It's somewhat amazing that the Keurig coffee maker, that uses single serving cups to brew the delicious caffeine elixir, has so come to dominate the market for what it does. There are lots of different flavors of Keurig coffees, some made by Keurig and some by other manufacturers. Now I can see having the varietals; the Sumatrans, the Colombians, the Costa Ricans, the Ethiopians, the Kenyans, the Tanzanian Peaberrys, etc. And then of course there are flavored coffees like vanilla, hazelnut, raspberry, mocha. And different roasts, like French and Italian. All that makes sense, and there is significant variety of those flavors. And Starbucks and Peets and Green Mountain and Caribou and many of the other major grinders and brewers have their own K-cups, and blends and roasts that have distinctiveness.
So now there's places like Dunkin' Donuts and the Donut House and Donut Shop and mass market coffees like Folgers and Millstone and Eight O'Clock and Chock Full o'Nuts all have K-cups, too. At this point it becomes hard to actually tell the difference between the different kinds of swill, because at this point there's very little difference in taste. It's all about branding.
But there is a flavor that I haven't seen out yet. And this is a flavor that hundreds of thousands of office workers in these great United States (and likely around the world) are very familiar with. And it's extremely distinctive from all the other good flavors. So I propose that somebody out there should make this wondrous flavor:
What do you think? A winner?
