Chicory saved my love of coffee!
I've been suffering with acid reflux for a while now and giving up coffee was not an option for me, as suggested by some. I happened to read that chicory coffee could be the answer and lo and behold it is! So I looked on line and found Community coffee to have it. I was already a fan of their coffee so was delighted to find their Chicory. I mix it with regular coffee and the blend satisfies my taste and seems to have no acid reflux aftermath. I am very happy about this and will be ordering from Community regularly. Also bought the Chicory/Regular coffee blend cups for my Keurig machine. Great to have all delivered to my front door!!

Makes great coffee even more delicious
I've been buying Community Coffee's ground chicory for about a year and a half, and whenever I run out, my coffee suddenly becomes bland and, no matter how strong I make it, tastes less rich.
This chicory really adds smoothness and depth to your coffee. I love that I can use it with a variety of different coffees and vary the amount depending on the flavor I want. I've also used Community Coffee's coffee with chicory, and that's really tasty, too.
Another bonus: I can drink more coffee without worrying about the caffeine, since chicory is naturally caffeine free.
I like purchasing directly from Community Coffee's website because it cuts out the middleman. :-)

Amazingly, this pure chicory brew has unexpected health benefits. I bought it because I haven't been able to drink coffee for years, and I remember my mother saying many years ago that they had to drink chicory in WWII due to coffee rationing. Not only does this taste wonderful, all sorts of good things started happening. I read up on chicory to see if I was mistaken, but no, it actually has medicinal benefits, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-anxiety, alkalizes the body, and helps heal digestive diseases. This hugely alleviates some chronic issues I have. I do a faux "Bulletproof" thing - I add powdered coconut cream and some vegan butter and stir. Yum!

Delicious Decaf Alternative
I'm primarily a coffee drinker but occasionally enjoy coffee+chicory as well ("discovered" it many years ago during a visit to New Orleans). I'd never had the opportunity to try drinking chicory by itself until a co-worker brought some instant into the office. Since I'm trying to stick to decaf in the afternoons, I found it to be a nice change of pace. In the process of trying to find it online I came across Community Coffee and decided to give your pure ground chicory a try. I think it's great both mixed with coffee and just by itself! It's fast becoming my go-to drink in the evenings!
I was pleasantly surprised with the quick delivery and expect to become regular customer.

Best tasting stuff!!!
I first tasted this in South Africa and went crazy for it. When we got back to the states I vowed to find Chicory here. I purchased several different brands but by far Community Coffee Ground Pure Chicory Is the absolute best on the market. I don't mix it with coffee at all. I like just the chicory. I also use a French Drip Pot. I use 1 tsp of Chicory for each cup of water. I add cream and sugar to taste and then I sit back and enjoy. Sooooo good!!!

Coffee drinkers do NOT know what they are missing. Adding chickory to your preferred brand of coffee mellows and smooths the blend. Because it is so much less in price, when added to your brand, it stretches value without loosing any flavor. Instead, it improves flavor. I have been ""addicted"" for 2 years now and I can tell such a difference in bitter taste WITHOUT chickory. I give it as gifts to family and friends - everyone should try it at least once.

Chicory
I have visited NOLA many times and became a big coffee and chicory fan. About two years ago, I discovered Community Coffee Chicory. I mix it with a lot of different coffees and it really brings out the flavor and color that you look for in a good cup. Mostly drink 1 measure chicory to 3 measures of Costco's 100% columbian in a 10 cup coffee maker. Great stuff! It gotten rave reviews from a lot of friends who are committed high end coffee drinkers. Thanks.

A Miracle Drink!
I’ve been a Community Coffee drinker all of my life - 30+ years of Dark & Medium Roast with Chicory. A coworker from Afghanistan mentioned that Chicory has great health benefits, so I began looking for fresh Chicory only to find Pure Chicory here.
The positive reviews on this site are correct. The taste is great without adding coffee. I drink it black and love the fact that I can have a hot cup after dinner.
I’ve only been drinking it for a couple of weeks, but I have noticed this: 1) It purges!!! 2) my abs are flatter and more defined without having worked out - I’m recovering from a knee injury. 3) I don’t snack or eat as much 4) I don’t crave carbs anymore. Go figure!
BTW - I shared my comments with my coworker and he shared my comments with his Mom. His Mom told him to tell me that in their country, the week before the wedding the brides drink Chicory tea to look like models in their wedding garments.
