WATERBURY, VERMONT (October 19, 2009) – Coffee drinkers have a new reason to celebrate with the introduction of the Donut House™ Collection, a full line of regular, decaf and flavored coffees in K-Cup® portion packs for use with Keurig® Single-Cup Brewing Systems.
The four varieties in this collection, rolled out by Green Mountain Coffee®, include Donut House™ Coffee, Donut House™ Decaf, Chocolate Glazed Donut™, and Cinnamon Roll™ coffees. This lineup offers a delicious, straightforward cup of coffee, and flavored selections with the taste and aroma of freshly-glazed goodness.
“Coffee and a donut is a combination that’s hard to resist,” said TJ Whalen, Vice President of Marketing for Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc.’s Specialty Coffee Business Unit. “Our Donut House Collection of K-Cups delivers a bold, dependable richness and flavor you can enjoy without stepping out of your own house. The taste reminds me why I first started drinking coffee.”
The friendly donut man on the product packaging suggests days gone-by when life was less complicated and coffee was ordered “regular.” The Donut House Collection of coffees for home or office can be found in 24-count boxes of K-Cups now available online at www.GreenMountainCoffee.com and at www.Keurig.com.
