The Best USA 🇺🇸 Grocery Store Coffee

As a Starbucks employee who hates Pike Place, seeing James wince at a slurp of it is all I’ve ever wanted

To address the Philz controversy: I didn’t realise they weren’t widely available. It was heavily suggested in the Patreon poll to pick the coffees, so I presumed it had decent distinction US-wide. My apologies! I also don’t think I understood the massive grocery variation by region (coming from a small island). Feel free to pick your own winner from the top 4! Regardless - I hope this was a fun video!

I thought it was very funny that he consistently described the Canadian coffee as "friendly" 🍁

As I work corporate for one of these manufacturers, I have been waiting for us to be trashed by James for so long :)

As a Canadian watching tim horton's make it as far as it did really validates that the employee's in store just don't know how to make coffee

As a Canadian who doesn’t really like Tim’s, I still couldn’t help but shout “that’s my boy!” every time that cup went through

That venomous "I know what you are" at the chicory imposter was everything! 🤣

Including beans vs pre-ground seems like a GIANT confounding factor

I’m usually annoyed by slurping, but he sounds like Velcro ripping when he does it so idm LMAOO

Its been 3 years, I would love a repeat of this. Especially since some other roasters like Blue Bottle have spread out more commercially, I think the competition has more good coffees on the market
