First and foremost, I am a coffee addict--I admit it. If I go a day without coffee, I must be ill. I have two cups in the morning and often one in the afternoon. I love practically every kind of coffee--lattes, cappuccinos, coffee with any kind of cream and splenda. In a pinch, I will drink the coffee black, but that is not my preferred way. I also like iced coffee and frozen coffee--I'm sure you get the idea.
It's actually kind of funny because the vast majority of my life, I couldn't stand coffee. I used to watch my grandpa and mom drink cup after cup--sometimes six a day. It was Martin who got me hooked on coffee (my friend from England). I couldn't stand coffee or tea, and he sent me both from England. And I developed a taste for both. And then a few years ago, I got hooked on coffee--I had to go buy a coffee pot!
Now, at first, I was not terribly particular about the brand of coffee I got. I tried them all. My mom prefer Starbucks--after all, we do live in the Pacific Northwest. And I will say that in the past, I have not been impressed with Seattle's Best Coffee. I don't know why, but the taste just was not my thing.
When the chance to fry a free sample of Seattle's Best Coffee came up, I decided to give it a try again. I noticed when it arrived that the packaging was different, and there was a number on the bag--5. I did not even know what that meant.
One day shortly after that sample arrived, we ran out of our normal coffee. So I substituted the free sample of Seattle's Best--hoping it would be good. Here's the proof. It was not until my mom and I were done with our coffee that morning that I remembered that the coffee was not our normal brew. And my mom and I did not even notice! This coffee was so good and dark and rich like our normal brew. I was quite pleased. So pleased that I went out and bought a full-size pack of Seattle's Best coffee for us!
I have since learned that Seattle's Best has instituted a new level system. My mom and I prefer dark coffee so it makes sense that level 5 would be our favorite. But they have levels 1-5--something for every taste. In fact, they have all sorts of drinks that I have not even looked for. Check out their brand and products here.
My mom and I have since talked about the necessity to cut back on the price of coffee, and Seattle's Best is a moderately priced brand for a great price. I think it will become one of our staples now that I know what level we like. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Disclosure: I request a free sample of Seattle's Best Coffee. The company sent me a sample merely because I requested it. I chose to review it, and I was not financially compensated in any way. All opinions are 100 percent mine.
