Finally tried Dunkin' Doughnuts Coffee!

Reminded me of grocery-store-brand coffee in the plastic containers...

All I can say is, IF YOU ADVERTISE IT, THEY WILL COME.

I'm in the minority it seems 'cause I HATE DD coffee !

Too weak & if you leave it up to them, WAY TOO MUCH cream & sugar.

Here in CT you can find a D&D every block..I abhor their coffee weak,burnt crap. McDonald's Newman's Blend is way better and cheaper.

People seem to love it....or is it that they just settle because it's convenient ?

I make my own or hit the 7-11 on the way to work & grab some of their Dark Mountain Roast...good stuff & my locals are good about keeping it fresh

It's the fact that it's convenient...they are everywhere in the Northeast. I drink Bengal Traders from the Mobil Gas Station. Cheaper,fresh and better than the D&D that is right next door.

What kind of review is this?? You've stated you don't like it but fail to point out why. We need specifics here...."it sucks" just doesn't fly. Per TGP etiquette, we need context, descrptions, reasons why you think DD coffee sucks....this kind of slander is the scourge of TGP.












Hope you see my tongue in cheek!!

I've been missing Tim Hortons ever since I moved to New England. Dunkin seems to run New England, and I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Their coffee is weak and never seems to taste fresh, even when it's a new pot. I am however becoming a fan of Peets Coffee.

On a whim I bought a bag of their ground coffee and it's become my usual brew now. I keep the bag tightly rolled up in the freezer and it lasts well.

Dunkin Donuts coffee sucks the big green one. This product is one of the biggest scams ever foisted on the American public, IMO.

Tim Horton's coffee, now THAT'S good joe!

I find it's good for a sweet, creamed coffee-like drink. But it doesn't really beat a nice bold, fresh ground arabica bean, or any of the other higher end coffees you can get at any halfway decent coffee shop.
