Dunkin donuts around here is Swill, if you ask any of my friends they generally shy away from most dunkin donuts as do i, since dunkin donuts has invaded the super market isles I’ve yet to hear about how there coffee is, this is where west coasters come to save the day. Stacy Finz of the San Francisco Chronicle has put the coffee to the test.
The article starts off on the fact they have sampled the coffee before on trips to the East Coast.
The West Coasters in the Food department who had tasted it on past trips to New York and New England were frankly not that impressed, which of course led to heated debates with the East Coasters in the office.
Personally if i had a time machine thats the only way I’ve known to get a good coffee from dunkin donuts. Likely Denis Leary can back me up on this one… as the article goes on to explain that they did an informal blind taste test , dunkin donuts was the least favorable of the coffees presented
In an informal blind tasting, the Dunkin’ Donuts coffee turned out to be our least favorite, with most of us leaning toward Tully’s and Peet’s.
The opinion in the end made me laugh because its right on..
“Thin, weak and lackluster,” was the way one staffer described it. Others thought it was typical office coffee – fine, but nothing distinctive.
between bluesteel and myself we always go out of the way to find good coffee. Dunkin donuts was that at one point in history but not so much now.. if you think the supermarket branding is not so well watch out for local ones around where i live.
