We have a grocery chain here called HEB, their brand is pretty good and I like target's archer farms too
As far as canned coffees go, Costco's Kirkland brand is drinkable. I don't by any means prefer it, but it's not one of the coffees I won't drink.
I'm still confused, by canned coffee do you mean instant freeze dried coffee or roasted beans sold in a can?
I like whole bean, grind at home as needed. Also, it was rated much higher than Starbucks by consumer digest. I use a french press for coffee making so it may be different if you use a different method.
If you enjoy espresso roasts made in a regular drip method, the Cuban family that owned and ran Rowland down in Miami put out a nine or ten different offerings until just recently. Their most well known is "Cafe Bustelo" and "Pilon", which until recently were both made with 100% Arabica. My last shipment was labeled "Arabica Blend". Upon further inquiry, I have read where the family company had been sold to the big boys.
I know some of these Latin roasts are too too dark for some of you elitists, but hey, we're talking about canned, ground coffee. These Caribbean espressos give a good, strong pot, and can be custom made with varying water/coffee ratios depending on your tastes.

My local supermarket just started carrying some of these--I'll need to try a few out.
Since getting a Keurig machine a few months ago, the convenience has greatly multiplied my coffee consumption. We recently added a refillable basket filter for it, which allows for the use of non-prepackaged-Keurig coffees. It seems I'm settling mostly on the darker and espresso roasts, with the Chock Full Of Nuts Dark Roast and especially Cafe Bustelo being my current favorites. The machine does have a bit of trouble pushing the water through the basket when I brew the fine ground Bustelo (it comes out slower, and seems to leak some of the water from the side), but it doesn't seem to be causing any permanent damage. If anyone can suggest some less finely ground Arabica coffees that work well in a Keurig machine, I'm anxious to try.
BTW - how do you keep the Pilon coffee fresh after you open that package?
Is that a trick question? It isn't fresh before you open it, so how can it be fresh after you open it?BTW - how do you keep the Pilon coffee fresh after you open that package?
