Dang I used to love coffee....a lot.
But now I quit caffine and life sucks.
I used to buy coffee from Todd Carmichael from NYC.
I forgethis companies name...google him.
He had a show on TV called "Deadly Grounds" where they followed him around the jungles of the world buying rare coffee.
I bought from him long before the show.....quit not long after the show started.
The goofy show aside, he is a true coffee master and has great coffee.
Man I miss coffee.

Grew up on it too . Its changed or Ive changed . Yuban changed too ... I loved Yuban up untill about 2012 or so . Both Jennifer and I .. it was all we'd drink and then one day the packaging artwork changed and so did the blend . Lol , we went through two tubs thinking somehow it has to be us ... but it wasnt . God I loved Yuban

Probably when they moved to "fair trade" beans.
I heard a lot of brands had to change their suppliers.

The Doughnut Shop roast is the closest tasting to the original. Nowadays when I buy it I go with the Dark and Bold or Columbian..

The last coffee I really liked was the Dunkin Donuts brand from the grocery store. I quit caffine in ohhhhh, about 2019. But that Dunkin stuff was great!
I grew up on Hills Bros.....thats what my mommy bought for decades. :)
