Kirkland Coffee from Costco

[ivyrose]

Has anyone ever tried Kirkland Coffee from Costco? Kirkland is the store brand for Costco. Their coffee is SOOOOO good. It comes in a 3 pound can and costs $7.29!!!!! Can you believe that???? I tried it a while ago and now a hooked. My whole family loves it so much that they have all switched. The only problem is I am the only one near a Costco, so I always have to pick it up for them. You should see the looks I get when I buy 10 at a time!!LOLOL
If you have a Costco around you, give it a try. Also, the decaf is good. I am not a decaf fan, but this is tollerable.

I do not have a Costco in my area, so I am jealous! Nice of you to pick up coffee for your loved ones. :)

I used to buy Kirkland coffee and yes it does taste real good. We moved and fortunately a Costco just opened in August so I am still able to get their coffee. Thanks for reminding me !!!:rolleyes:

I am a fairly savvy but cheap coffee drinker. I like full flavored coffees but hate the aftertaste of some of the more popular yuppie brands such as Starbucks. I also don't appreciate being ripped off by the inflated prices these firms charge.
I was raised in NYC and appreciate a good cup of coffee. I have been buying Colombian coffees particularly Folger's 100%Colombian Med-Dark Roast which my wife and I brew faithfully each morning and havearrived at a good coffee/water ratio.
Last week, while shopping at Costco, we saw Folgers Medium Roast -Classic (not Colombian) on sale but since it wasn't what we drink we passed on the sale. Right next to it was an actual 3lb(48oz) can of Kirkland Colombian for about $9.00 or so as I recall. My wife suggested we give it a try so we bought a can.(BTW most of the coffee companies selling so called 3lb cans are actually selling 35 oz or so of the product-almost 1 lb less that 3lbs)
Got to open it this week and made a pot. Much to my surprise it surpassed the Folgers in taste. This is a fairly strong coffee but no bitter/acidic after taste just as I like it.
Finally have the coffee to water ratio down - 1 to 2 - and it is fantastic.
My only hope is that they hold the price on this and hopefully demand will not exceed supply.
Excellent, excellent value, I am stoked!!!
