What is the red bag blend?
Let's say it is 25 years ago, and you go to the store and buy a red bag of Community Coffee, no fancy grinds, roasts, names, flavors, etc., just the famous, and nearly ubiquitous coffee in Lake Charles, LA. It's great, brewed at home, or in cafes and restaurants and gas stations. Now, back to today. Is this supposed to be the same, exact blend, roast, and grind? If not, which one sold today is the same as the old red bag? Or is it like Coca Cola, where you have to get the Mexican Cokes for the true recipe? Don't know. It is a nice coffee, but sometimes these things matter.

Its mellow taste just keeps calling you back for more.

Something changed...
This coffee used to be good, and somewhere in the summer of 2023 it changed. There is now a very bitter taste (lingers with a bad after taste too), some have even described as a chemical taste. We were told the formula did not change, but after ruling out all other variables, that is all we can conclude. We have found other blends that are acceptable, but this one no longer works for us.

Best coffee and staff.
What makes the coffee great isn’t just the fine cup to start the day. It’s the service. Customerservice is the finest group of great people I have ever dealt with. A totally wonderful way to do business. Yes I am a long time customer.

Perfect mix between med- dark roast. I usually like dark roast, but coffee is smooth and rich. My current favorite

Indiana loves Community Coffee!
Great product. Wish they would bring back the American Classic in 3 oz. packets. I used to order all of the office coffee supplies from Community but they quit offering a lot of items.

Ordered for my mom
My mom use to drink dark roast but now as she is in her nineties she says it's too strong for her so I ordered the blend cafe for her which she loves.

When you want something a little lighter
Great roast for dark roast drinkers when you want something just a little lighter. Community doesn't make a bad product EVER!!!!

Best coffee ever!
Don’t buy this if you’re expecting a coffee that tastes like a candy bar….it doesn’t. But do wait for the subtlness…the hints. They are there and they are remarkable!
I’ve been drinking coffee for 60+ years and Cafe Special is the best I’ve ever had. I almost didn’t try it because I don’t like ‘flavored’ coffees but for a reason I still don’t understand I bought it. I never plan to buy anything else as long as this is available.

Nothing like described.
Grew up on dark roast chicory. Tried this looking for one that isn’t bitter because I’m not using sugar anymore. Can’t even smell it brewing! . It’s bitter and flat with only a burnt taste. Guess they’ve focused on all the flavored types now. I’m looking for one to enjoy with only cream. This isn’t it. So much for Community. Tastes like cheap convenience store coffee! I’m a daily, sometimes three times a day coffee drinker.

I like to try something new.
I like to try something new with each order. It's ok, but certainly not my favorite. The flavor seems a bit flat.
