Folgers coffee, coffee for all tastes
Folgers coffee company slogan: “The best part of waking up is Folger’s in your cup!” is well known to us all.
The company was founded by James A. Folger in the 19th century in San Francisco. Proctor & Gamble acquired Folger’s in 1963, after it had become one of the major brands of coffee in America.
It not only offers several basic coffees, but has developed Folger’s several gourmet selections as well, you can buy them online at CoffeeForLess.com
For those who use ground coffee on a daily basis, Folger’s Classic Roast is the most popular.
The Simply Smooth collection was created for those who love coffee, but have sensitive stomachs. It comes in regular and decaffeinated. Choosing quality coffee beans and roasting them to a level that will ensure good flavor without irritating sensitive stomachs.
Folger’s Flavors.. gives the coffee fan even more to experiment with
Chocolate Silk combines the richness of chocolate with a full-bodied coffee flavor that appeals to chocolate fans everywhere.
Cinnamon Swirl adds a delightful hint of cinnamon to a rich coffee.
French Vanilla is a very mellow coffee with the enticing scent of vanilla, and finally,
Hazelnut combines a rich nuttiness to another mellow coffee.
