Default What's the best tasting decaf coffee?

For years I have been drinking Brown Gold Decaf and have found it to
be the best tasting AND reasonably priced decaf coffee around.

In recent months it has started tasting muddy to me. I tried my
wife's Brown Gold regular caffeine coffee and found it to be of MUCH
higher quality.

So I'm looking to make a change.

I brew my coffee with an electric filter coffee maker, if that makes a
difference.

Any suggestions?

And thanks in advance!

I like Meijer's house brand, hazelnut decaf.

Millstone Hazelnut Decaf (I get it at Sam's Club) is very decent. I
like it a lot.--r3

ACK!!!
Flavoured coffee has to be the worst crap foisted on the buying public since
decaf.
Good coffee (decaf or natural) is just that - good coffee!
Adding Yuppy flavour is just a way to market an inferior product for yet
more dollars.
As to machines that are advertised to make good coffee -
forgettaboutaboutit.
They don't exist.
For more information go to
alt.coffee
If you are even slightly interested in good coffee that is .

Ken.

I don't drink or like flavored coffee myself, but I did buy a couple of
pounds of Ghiradelli chocolate coffee a few years ago. I thought it was
much better (richer) than a cup of brewed coffee that you could add the
chocolate to it yourself (and cinnamon?).
As far as Ghiradelli using inferior coffee beans for their chocolate-infused
coffee beans, they didn't taste inferior to me.

Yuppy flavor? I looked up the definition of yuppy: this is the first one I
found:
Definition yuppie, yuppy
noun [C] DISAPPROVING
a young person who lives in a city, earns a lot of money and spends it doing
fashionable things and buying expensive possessions
Curious, do you like Starbucks beans? If not their beans, their roasting?
P.S. Yes, I've wandered in an out of the coffee ng. Thanks.

I'm normally not a Starbucks fan, but I've found their decaf is very good.

One of those happenstance things -- I was at my mother's for Thanksgiving
last year and she invited some neighbors in for coffee and dessert. She
wanted just enough decaf to make one pot of coffee, since she didn't think
she'd use any leftovers. The only decaf her local grocery had in the "buy
as much as you want" bins was Starbucks.

It tasted like regular coffee. This year I'll buy enough to make 2 pots --
people wanted a second cup and we didn't have any ground coffee left.

Where are you? For a mellow evening cuppa decaf, I like the Decaf Queen
Anne Blend available at the Queen Anne Thriftways and Metropolitan
Markets in Pugetopolis.
