We at G@H frown upon snobbery in most situations. Cheap wine may stain our teeth but does not offend our palates. An ice-cold Hamm’s goes down easy in the heat of summer. At the ballpark, we would choose a foot-long hotdog swimming in chili cheese over fresh Maine lobster.

When it comes to coffee, though, we discriminate. We do not insist our beans be scavenged from elephant dung. But, we do demand taste. We like coffee to kick. We crave bold flavor and captivating aroma.

Sometimes, our caffeinated destiny seems beyond our control. We can feel chained to the bland offerings of our places of employment. We try making due . We marinate that hot beverage posing as coffee in non-dairy creamer and Splenda. Alas, we merely put lipstick on a pig.

Although the meek may inherent the earth someday, the alert, energetic and gratified have the clear advantage now. Rise up. Seize the reins of your morning. Dominate your coffee with the Keurig K10 MINI Plus Brewing System. It brews a cup rapidly and quietly. It uses K cups, so you decide what to drink. Most importantly, this unit is perfect for your office. It is small. It is attractive. And, because it lacks a warming plate, you will not accidently burn down corporate headquarters.

Our favorite K-Cup flavors include Tully’s French Roast Extra Bold Coffee, Caribou Coffee Daybreak Morning Blend Coffee, and Gloria Jean’s Hazelnut Coffee.
