Small Amy’s Blend Coffee from Caribou Coffee

Item Purchased: Small Amy’s Blend Coffee from Caribou Coffee
Location Purchased: Caribou Coffee / 1328 S. Halsted / Chicago, IL
Price: $1.50 + tax

Review: Why is it that my two favorite blends of Caribou coffee are only seasonal? First, the Perennial blend that comes out at the beginning of what is supposed to be spring (It was 32 degrees here in Chicago today). Second is the late spring offering, Amy’s Blend which is sold in conjunction with the National Breast Cancer Foundation, where 10% of the proceeds from this coffee go. Now I know it may not be a sound, profit-making business decision, but why not keep Amy’s Blend brewing all year round to raise even more funds for Cancer research?

Amy’s Blend is a light-to-medium roast despite what the packaging may tell you. Ignore, also, the claims of a melon taste to this coffee. There is an extremely minor citrus taste deep within an offsetting and perfectly flavorful earthy coffee taste that any self-respecting coffee drinker has grown to love. The two flavors mingle and combine well with each other and any extras you happen to drop into your morning cup.

Drink up people! This stuff will be gone before you realize it.
