It's Baaaack!
Five Star Hotel blend fans, I've just received word: It's available once again! It seems I wasn't alone in bemoaning its being discontinued. Community Coffee heard and responded. They care! In my opinion, the new Amber Sunrise blend (as suggested by Community Coffee) was no substitute. It's too light and too weak. In trying to find a replacement, I discovered In Between Roast to be very good. Even though it has a hint of the darker roast flavor, of which I am not a big fan, it makes a rich, good tasting cup. I brewed a stovetop percolator pot full this morning: excellent. And the Colombian Altura is also very nice. Enjoy your next mug of Five Star!

It began for me in 1992
I have drank Hotel Blend every morning for well over 24 years. I recall first moving to Memphis when Community coffee wasn't yet available. I would have family send CARE-PACKS through the mail with Hotel Blend. Then the local grocers began to carry Community in the late 90's. It has been available now for nearly 20 years, but in the past year has become EXTREMELY hard to find anywhere in the Memphis area. We would generally stay stocked up both at our house and our summer cabin. Not sure what we are going to do now. I cannot think of another brand or flavor on the market that comes close to that ""experience"" except Douwe Egberts in liquid form. I hope they bring Hotel Blend back!

Disappointed in Lafayette
I have only 2 brands of coffee in my 61 years 1-Seaport Inbetween Roast 2-Community Hotel Blend. I discovered Community Hotel Blend at a motel café in Lake Charles upon several overnights for work. I usually don't like hotel coffee or any other brands of coffee-I am a creature of habit but the coffee was so good, I asked the waitress the brand and I went back to Lafayette searching for it and found it in the stores. When I opened my business, I ordered the same coffee for years. Now you are discontinuing it, without public notice. I am very disappointed and upset. I am on my last pack and don't know what I will drink next. If I had known, I would have bought a couple of cases. Disappointed In Lafayette

Always an excellent cup of coffee!
Hotel Blend is the perfect cup of coffee! I drink my coffee black, plain, basic medium brew and I taste every bit of the flavor. This blend is a masterpiece, nothing strange, it's just very, very good! If my local store is out of Hotel Blend I will buy Breakfast Blend, but I still prefer Hotel Blend, any time if day!

My Favorite!
This is my favorite blend and I've just learned it's going away and being replaced with another blend. I really hate to see this happen. This is the only non-flavored blend I enjoy. I've been enjoying this blend for many years. Best flavor. Not bitter and very smooth. Sad to see my favorite going away.

Best coffee ever!
Several years ago, we discovered Hotel Blend and have been drinking only Hotel Blend ever since. We have moved to Bogalusa and cannot find it in any of the stores. It's delicious coffee and we miss it. We are using the House Blend, but it doesn't quite have the same flavor even though it is good.

It's the best!
I have drank 5 Star Hotel Blend for over 12 years. I have decided to join the coffee club, and would love to get the 5 Star Hotel Blend in 2 pound bags if that's possible. For the last 4 months I have turned my attention to Cafe' Special, which is another fine coffee from Community Coffee.

Favorite of the Everyday blends
Over the past month I've tried multiple blends of Community Coffee; the end result was Hotel Blend being the best balanced--not too strong, not too mild. A very close second, not surprisingly, was Between Roast. Hotel Blend seems to be a bit more refined, and my favorite.
