As I know, this coffee is sold in the South. I've tried it a couple of times..it seems to be pretty good!

Not just the south, except for specialty stores it is almost exclusively a LOUISIANA Coffee... chicory.... yummy....

loves me my "double C" (as we used to call it!)

You're right....It's marketed as a "Louisiana" coffee....

Its local, but I can't stand it

There are Community Coffee stores around here - CC's Coffee House. They're a poor Starbucks knockoff. Their frozen cappucino is bitter and chunky with ice. I'll only do it if I'm desparate for a caffiene fix.

I much prefer Eight o'clock Coffee. I refuse to drink Folgers or any of the freeze dried crap. If I can't grind it in the store, I don't want it

I LOVEEE Community Coffee. It's really the only kind I can drink. My dad has drunk CC since I don't know when. It's definitely a Louisiana thing. I'm hoping that I can get an internship there next summer. Close to Baton Rouge and all the free coffee you can drink!!!

One of my profs at my school is from S. Louisiana, and got me addicted to the stuff. It's very good!!

I hope that you get can the internship!

Do you know what part of South Louisiana? I'm South Louisiana born and bred!!! I've also noticed that Community is primarily used in S. Louisiana. My family from N. Louisiana drinks Folgers and crap like that.

I think he's from around the Lafayette area. He went to school what was the University of Southwestern Louisiana (aka University of Louisiana @ Lafayette!) "Paquet Rouge" is very good!! Gotta love the chicory!!! Also, I think that most of the CC stores are in the southern part of the state...Baton Rouge, Lafayette, etc...

Too bad he didn't go to the better school...LSU!!!!! J/J of course.

I'm thinking about law school @ LSU! Louisiana seems like a cool place!!

I lived in Ruston and EVERYONE drank CC.....

But then again there are a lot of S LA transplants there.

Where I'm from, its really rare to drink CC. So when I'm at school, I try to drink as much as possible...
