Yeah, we’re talking auto-drip, medium grind coffee. It still comes in cans. Plastic, not metal. But, they are real cans. The Yuban I just bought came in a cardboard can with a metal bottom.

I get Yuban organic at the grocery store sometimes. It seems better than any of the bigger brands, though not as good as fresh stuff from the local roaster.
