Geen Mountain Coffee Fair Trade Organic French Roast Review & Giveaway


I have to have my coffee. I just can't get started in the morning without it. Green Mountain Coffee is a brand that most people are familiar with. Its the brand of choice of many of the local restaurants in my tourist town. I was excited  when it was starting to get sold in grocery stores. And now I'm even more excited to learn that they are offering  USDA certified organic varieties  This is great organic coffee that sells for a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend it to any coffee lover.


For review, I got to try out the Fair Trade Organic French Roast. Did you ever open a pack of coffee and you just knew it was going to be excellent because it smelled so fresh and delicious.  I couldn't stop breathing in that amazing scent.  I could tell  by the dark color and texture that it was as fresh as possible, newly roasted and freshly ground. I had to stand there and watch it brew, feeling my mouth water as I waited for what I knew was going to be a great cup of coffee. And I wasn't disappointed. It was smooth, not bitter at all, and strong enough without being overpowering.  Literally, one of the best cups of coffee I've ever made myself at home



In addition to french roast coffee, Green Mountain also offers organic house blends, decaf, flavored coffees and more.  All for the same reasonable prices.  You can find sampler packs that make great gifts for friends and family. You can also find a wide range of brewing equipment and accessories on their website to make sure you are getting the best cup of coffee possible.

Would you like to see for yourself how good organic coffee can be? One lucky winner receive the same organic french roast I received to review.
