Ekobrew and Coffee Bundles

You may have noticed that we’re getting a little obsessed with our Ekobrew Reusable Filters for Keurig Single Cup Brewers. We blog about them, Facebook about them, and spotlight them in almost every newsletter with no sign of stopping anytime soon. That’s because the response to these nifty, cost effective, and environmentally friendly filters has been overwhelming! To keep the pace going strong, we have decided to add product bundles to the website; Ekobrew filter and coffee combos that will save you money and help you decide which varieties of coffee to use in your Keurig machine.

We looked closely at what coffee varieties our fans have been ordering when they buy their Ekobrew filters. We used this information to hand pick coffee for the best bundles possible. After much deliberation we settled on 3 unique bundles:

Ekobrew Bundle #1 – Flavor:

1 lb Hazelnut flavored coffee

1 lb Jamaican Me Crazy flavored coffee

1 Ekobrew Reusable Filter

Hazelnut and Jamaican Me Crazy are our 2 most popular flavors. They are sure to please any fan of flavored coffee. Can’t decide which one to try first? Using your Ekobrew in your Keurig brewer is so easy you can treat yourself to a cup of both.

 

Ekobrew Bundle #2 – Greatest Hits:

1 lb Italian Roast Espresso coffee

1 lb Colombian Supremo coffee

1 Ekobrew Reusable Filter

Many households are split when it comes to coffee preferences: Dark, rich coffees versus lighter roasted coffees with more subtle flavors. No more arguing over which coffee to make a full pot of every morning. Our Greatest Hits bundle matches the Ekobrew filter with a pair of our most popular dark and light roast.

 

Ekobrew Bundle #3 – Double Bundle:

1 lb French Roast coffee

1 lb Breakfast Blend coffee

2 Ekobrew Reusable Filters

We were surprised at how many of our fans have been buying more than one Ekobrew Reusable filter at a time. It makes sense when you think about it though… People love their Keurigs because they are quick and convenient. With two Ekobrews, you can have your next cup ready for brewing before your first one is even finished. The Double Bundle comes with French Roast and Breakfast Blend, 2 extremely popular blends that are sure to please any palate.

Whether you are buying them as a gift or for yourself, we are sure you will love all 3 bundles. As always, we love comments and feedback. Feel free to comment on other products you would like bundled with your Ekobrew filter. Maybe a 3-pack? How about one of our popular sampler packs with an Ekobrew? You tell us.

 

Inspiration comes from the strangest places

You may be wondering what Mad Marchness flavored coffee tastes like.  Names like French Vanilla and Hawaiian Hazelnut are easy.  Even coffees like Jamaican Me Crazy and Vermont Maple Crunch are fairly easy to infer what they taste like.  But what the heck does Mad Marchness taste like?

For that answer we need to take a trip… to the bar.

For many people, St. Patrick’s Day is equated with drinking.  While I am not Irish, I will admit that going to the bar after the parade was my favorite part of the holiday after I turned 21.  For me, it just wasn’t a successful St. Patrick’s Day without drinking at least one Irish Car Bomb.  What is an Irish Car Bomb?  It’s a beer cocktail of immense magnitude.  My dad refers to the drink as a boilermaker — dropping a shot of liquor into a beer.  What distinguishes an Irish Car Bomb are the ingredients:  You start with a shot glass of Irish Cream (usually Bailey’s brand)  with a layer of  Irish Whiskey floating across the top (typically Jameson Irish Whiskey but it’s your choice  — I know better than to argue with someone over which Irish Whiskey is best).  Next you drop the shot glass into a nice big glass of Guinness Stout and drink it “bomb” style… that means chugging it as fast as you can.

Mad Marchness is a wicked little combination of Chocolate Stout flavor, Irish Cream flavor and yes, Whiskey flavor.  It won’t get you drunk, but it also won’t leave you hung over.  When we first tested our coffee version of an Irish Car Bomb we were very surprised at how well chocolate, liqueur, and whiskey flavors complimented coffee.  Even people who never had the alcoholic beverage still enjoyed their Mad Marchness.  Who would have thought that a popular bar drink would make for such a popular coffee?  Especially a bar drink that is so intensely delicious at night then immensely regrettable the next morning.  Mad Marchness has become so popular we had to also offer it as a tea.

Try Mad Marchness soon, it will soon disappear from the website again until next year.  Just remember, if you’re going to drink it “bomb style” let it cool first.  Chugging scalding hot coffee is NOT recommended.

Celebrate the Eyes of March!
