Maxwell House Ground Coffee, 100% Colombian

Maxwell House Ground Coffee, 100% Colombian, sits squarely in the coffee aisle — a familiar metal canister on shelves alongside instant coffee jars, other ground and whole-bean coffees, single-serve pods, coffee filters and creamers. It reads as an everyday staple for routines: picked up on weekly grocery runs, grabbed for weekday mornings, tossed into a road‑trip supply bag or bought as a “keep the office stocked” item. The brand leans on heritage and reliability: a legacy American label positioned toward practical, value-conscious shoppers who favor consistent, no‑fuss flavor over boutique trends. Marketing evokes mid-century break-room nostalgia and steady energy rather than specialty origin stories. The label is plain and straightforward: “100% Colombian” signals single-origin sourcing but there are no kid-focused graphics, no health-halo claims like “low acid” or “antioxidants,” and no organic or fair-trade certification on the stated information. Processing is simple in everyday terms — green beans roasted and ground — not chemically reformulated or mixed with additives. Sensory notes lean into the product copy: medium roast with a strong, full-bodied aroma, a clean, slightly toasted finish and the comforting ritual of brewing. The 23.1-ounce canister is designed for pantry storage and repeated daily use; many households scoop into a filter for drip machines, stash grounds for French press mornings, or keep a small jar by the office kettle. In American grocery culture, this coffee functions as a dependable, communal-shelf item — the kind of familiar can that signals “we have coffee” at family breakfasts, staff rooms and shared apartments.
