Green Mountain Coffee review.




If you don't know what Bzz agent is it is a site that sends free products from all different companies to try out and review. If this sounds like something you want to do sign up at www.bzzagent.com.

As a BzzAgent, I received free samples to try of Green Mountain Coffee in exchange for my review.

First of all, I have to admit I was a bit hesitant about trying a different coffee. I normally drink Starbucks, and in the past when I've tried a different coffee, it was bitter and I couldn't drink it.

I was pleasantly surprised Green Mountain wasn't bitter at all. In fact, it was very comparable to Starbucks. The price was also pretty much the same, even though a few cents more, but that's okay. I know my money is going to a great cause-and I'm getting my get up and go too.

Another plus is that Green Mountain is also Fair Trade Certified. Fair Trade helps farmers get a fair price for their beans, improves working conditions, assists in protecting the environment, and supports community developments such as new schools, roads, health clinics and safer drinking water. Also check out the live stream of their concerts, Green Mountain Coffee's Facebook page.

 The taste is great, the price is comparable to other Fair Trade coffees, and it's available pretty much anywhere. My friends and I each had a cup the other night and agreed it was one of our favorites. I distributed the coupons and saved one for myself so I can stock up and have a delicious cup whenever I want!
