Super Coffee Names Top Ten Coffee Brands

PRLog (Press Release) - Oct 09, 2008 -
Popular online destination for coffee lovers SuperCoffees.com is pleased to announce the top ten coffee brands available. Based on rigorous testing of hundreds of varieties, Super Coffees selected the top ten based on public awareness, quality and overall market share.

"Selecting the top coffee brands is a challenging task," said Super Coffee founder Maude Brown. While Starbucks tries to fend off growing competition from the likes of McDonald's and Dunkin' Donuts on the restaurant level, there's plenty of competition for the coffee dollars of consumers at home. Super Coffee is pleased to bring this look at the top coffee brands in the U.S. based on Super Coffee's own research - http://supercoffees.com/, to the coffee loving community to help consumers make tasty decisions."
