I always found BRCC to be pretty decent coffee. Though I'd agree, they have a heck of a marketing scheme and their prices and shipping are high. I'm surprised I don't hear more about Alpha coffee, that used to be Lock and Load Java. For those looking to support veteran owned companies it's another good choice. We've always like their coffee a lot and it was traditionally a bit cheaper.

I tried a bag of their coffee. The first bag was sent to the wrong address, and they sent a 2nd bag for free. Curiously, the 1st bag showed up the same day as the 2nd bag, so I got a two-for-one deal. I liked the first bag, nothing special. I began to dislike it halfway thru the 2nd bag, and never even finished it. I wouldn't buy from them again. The coffee I can get at any HEB is better and cheaper. |

Can anyone explain to me how or Why this "Lifestyle Brand" marketing is even a thing?
I fit their target demographic, yet feel no compulsion to buy their coffee. They claim to be veterans and like guns. Therefore, people feel obligated to buy their product. The entire shtick feels like pandering to me. It's embarrassing. Maybe I'm just jealous I didn't think of it first.

I've never tried their coffee before, but picked up a bag of the Silencer Smooth 2 hours ago from one of the local FFLs. I'll brew a cup later today and let you guys know what I think.
Figure they do a monthly bulk buy and deliver it for $4 more a bag (considering shipping to AK sucks) that's a good deal IMO. But I'll pay ~$16 a bag for good coffee. Hell, the stuff we used to serve at the shop started at $30 a pound + shipping and went up to $60 a pound.

I'd say its one step above something like the bulk Starbucks or Gevalia coffee you can get at any store, but you're honestly paying for the huge production hype section of their budget.
If your hype gets me to try your product, great! But the second part of that equation is that your product is good enough to where I'd keep purchasing it. Not the case, unfortunately. I honestly couldn't tell much of difference between the BRC offering and basically everything at the store besides it just felt like it was less mass produced. For real coffee you need to look into single origins that taste good to you; kind of like whiskey, and go from there. I particularly love the beans that come from a specific part of Guatemala where the volcanic soil gives the coffee a very specific taste. https://verterecoffee.com/collections/single-origin/products/guatemala-shb-ep-laurel |

I drink 2-3 bags a month. I've been getting their subscription/coffee club for about 9 months now, and the best part, they ship to me while deployed with an APO address.
Is it the best coffee in the world? I have no idea. Is it good coffee, yes. Am I happy to keep buying it, yes. Does the back of every bag I've looked at say "a portion of profits go to veteran, LEO, and gun rights organizations"? Yup. I'll keep buying. |

Then this months batch arrived and it is weak and tasteless. I sent them an email yesterday, haven't heard back yet. Black Silk is my normal. |
