Black Rifle Coffee.....Say What???

Black Rifle Coffee.....Say What??? - 11/21/21 02:39 AM

I hadn't heard about this.....


Black Rifle Coffee — Who Disavowed Rittenhouse — Silent After Not Guilty Verdict


Quote
The veteran-founded coffee company had distanced itself from Rittenhouse after the teenager took a post-bail photo wearing a Black Rifle Coffee T-shirt and BlazeTV host Elijah Schaffer posted the photo along with the caption, “Kyle Rittenhouse drinks the best coffee in America.”

Schaffer, whose podcast was sponsored by Black Rifle Coffee, deleted his tweet, and a company spokeswoman said to the Salt Lake Tribune, “We did have a conversation with Schaffer, and he understands that the post was a mistake.”

The company’s CEO Evan Hafer also issued a statement disavowing any relationship with Rittenhouse that said, “We do not sponsor nor do we have a relationship with the 17-year-old facing charges in Kenosha, WI.”..........

Hafer acknowledged its disavowal of Rittenhouse may have cost the company customers but said it allowed the company to “draw a line in the sand,” according to the Times article.

‘It’s such a repugnant group of people,” Hafer told the Times. “It’s like the worst of American society, and I got to flush the toilet of some of those people that kind of hijacked portions of the brand.”

Hafer added, “The racism [expletive] really pisses me off…I hate racist, Proud Boy-ish people. Like, I’ll pay them to leave my customer base. I would gladly chop all of those people out of my [expletive] customer database and pay them to get the [expletive] out.”.............

Black Rifle messed up. I have heard they’re very wishy washy. But I don’t drink coffee.

I do. They shoulda been silent fron the get-go, but I'm sure they felt they had to comment, since he wore their shirt. They chose poorly.

I like it BUT they are getting too big and have to kiss everybody's azz. They are everywhere and lost their "small batch" status. Now they will pay the price. I wont buy anymore.

Those guys are a bunch of clowns. Run around acting like real bad asses but deep down they are punks, especially that Mat Best. I have no use for fools like that.

It seems they want to do something great and step on their dick everytime. That is unfortunate..

The real badarses of the military, the Marine and Army Infantry drink instant coffee. The CRats from WWII had small packets of instant coffee in them.. Only the REMF's had constant access to coffee grounds and and percolators.

Indeed, I don't like their coffee anyway.
Funny, how they seem, to have nothing to say now....

I already like the coffee I like. While I support our veterans and troops, their message seemed to want to capitalize off of them. Hard pass with no regrets.

I say pizz on em’

So, while on the subject of coffee, I used to buy some of the BR coffee on occasions and liked it, but I drink Folgers 98% of the time. What company sells a good coffee similar to Black Rifle, preferably a dark roast?

Just stay with folders it’s what I drink. I don’t like bodega coffee. Just folders black. If I’m drinking something else I’m not making it.

They have some funny videos on YouTube past that the only coffee of theirs I e drank was a gift. I would never buy their product.

I haven't tasted BR coffee. I do like dark roast coffee and mostly drink Community Signature Blend dark roast.

Evan Hafer was on the 11/17 Meateater podcast and announced that they were going public with Black Rifle Coffee. I wonder what kind of effect this will have on that kind of business move.

Never tried it, but they aren't the first ones to put a political foot in their mouth over the R case. Some are continuing to do it, even after the verdict so.....

Bison Union. They're out of Wyoming, and have pretty good coffee. I used to order it quite often, but have just been getting whatever HEB has lately.

Whiskey Morning Coffee
Located in Tolar, TX
Aged in Bourbon barrels or the Texian coffee is smoked over cherry and pecan wood. Both are really good and fresh.

To me, the overbearing bro vet antics drove me away more than their politics and mediocre coffee. It was funny for about 5 minutes, but is just immature. That’s not how we act all of the time.

Re: Black Rifle Coffee.....Say What??? - 11/22/21 06:13 PM

I have drank a ton of coffee in my day. I drink two cups at the house and a pot by myself at the office nearly every day. Would love to hear an explanation of either what is so good or what is so mediocre about their coffee.

Ive drank their coffee, its not bad its not special. Black coffee is black coffee, much of the differences is in how you brew it. It was nothing more than a neat fad if you ask me, much like many other things, all the cool kids had to get some of it and name drop it. I drink store brand coffee and think its every bit as good as the goofy chit.

I think the issue in original post was from a year ago. At any rate I noticed Black Rifle was all over the Cabela's on the last visit.

Never heard of him before this post

Quote
He served five tours with the 2nd Ranger Battalion, four in the Iraq War, and one in Afghanistan.[3][5] After leaving the military, Best completed his Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts from Ashford University,[6] and worked as a contractor for the Central Intelligence Agency.[7][8]

Rangers count deployments differently, a single high risk mission can count as a deployment, even if it's short term.

I've been order directly from Bright And Early out of Houston. Texas roaster.

Been drinking mostly their original 1918 blend. I buy a 5 lb bag so it's free shipping.

They’ve definitely gained a loyal following in a hurry but I have a feeling they peaked and will see a decline. I kinda see them as the new Duck Dynasty. Gain ridiculous popularity but took a downturn and people moved on.

I love coffee, I drink 3-4 cups a day easily. I cant afford to do that with BRC and the older I get the cheaper the coffee the better it tastes to me, probably in my head.
