Kroger often slaps their labels on other products and then sells them for lower prices, but I've never figured out which brand they re-labeled for this coffee. Could it actually be unique for them in this case?
I tried many types of "Colombian" and "Arabica beans" coffee over the years, including the big-name brands and various more expensive ones, but I finally stuck with Kroger.
EDIT:
The taste probably depends on how coffee is made too. Kroger Colombian turns out well with my drip coffee makers. Yet another (local) brand which tasted GREAT at a nearby donut shop was very bland with my slow-brew method at home. I had bought a bag of it from the donut shop, but the taste was nothing like what they had made with an industrial-sized coffee maker, which filled a pot in just seconds! Same coffee, very different results.
