Flavored Coffee

Flavored Coffee: Your Favorite Beverage With A Special Twist!

Coffee lovers everywhere no longer have to settle for the same old flavors when choosing a blend of their favorite beverage. Moving beyond the darkness and mildness of coffee flavor, coffee manufacturers are beginning to offer flavored coffee in several different varieties. These coffees are now available in dozens of different flavors, and can be purchased at your local grocer, as well as online. Our expert team of coffee lovers went on a taste testing spree of some of the more popular varieties of flavored coffee. Once the caffeine rush wore off, and they were able to get a few hours of sleep again, they sat down and reported to us what their favorite types of flavored coffee were.

The "Typical" Flavors

Of course we're certain that you've heard of the most common types of coffee. Even though the flavors may not be new to you, they were still among the top choices in our panel. Flavors like hazelnut and amaretto topped the list when our panel was asked their all time favorite type of flavored coffee; but lesser know flavors such as Irish cream (all the flavor with none of the kick!) and cinnamon were also quite popular.

Dessert Coffees

Next on the list of favorites were the dessert coffee types. Of these, the chocolate and raspberry combination seemed to be the most popular, with peppermint flavored coffee a close second. Both blends were dark and rich as a dessert coffee should be, and carried all of the flavor their names bespoke. Other popular flavors were caramel and toffee flavored coffee, as well as the ever popular French vanilla.

Fruit Coffees

Some of the more unusual types of flavored coffee we found were available in several different fruit flavors. These unusual flavors came in varieties such as Blueberry flavored coffee, orange chai coffee, and even apple flavored coffee.

With so many different flavors to choose from, you may spend years tasting thousands of different flavors before you find your favorite. There are classics like chocolate flavored coffee, and more modern flavors like maple pecan. Whichever you choose as your favorite, you're sure to be pleased with the many different varieties available. And if you have a coffee lover in your life, you can also purchase gift baskets with several different varieties of flavored coffee inside, so that he or she can choose their favorite flavor, as well.
