On our recent trip to NC I returned with 10 pounds of coffee. A friend gifted me a pound of Luzianne coffee with chicory a few years ago and I had to get a stash. They said they thought of me when they tried it in seminary (New Orleans) and couldn't drink it...too strong. Those who like this type, is there anything better on the shelf or close to it ( for about $3.50/lb) ?

Doesn't Chase & Sanborn coffee have chicory? I have never tried it personally, but I have seen it in the store.

I do not drink coffee so I am of limited use, but would something like this do you any good: COFFEE PARTNER Ground Chicory at CajunGrocer

If you want the real stuff, get Community Coffee with chicory. And you're going to have to pay more than that.

New Orleans Blend® Coffee and Chicory by Community Coffeecoffee and chicory new orleans coffee blendDue to a coffee shortage during the Civil War New Orleanians began extending their coffee supply by adding chicory the root of the endive plant roast

It's what the locals down there drink.

Or just by the chicory and mix it in yourself. (same link)

I'll have to bookmark the page. It may cost a little more, but in the long run it's cheaper than the tolls to get from NJ to NC, never mind the gas & depreciation. Thanks!!!

We had that in a coffee club in the 80's at RCA. It wasn't as dark roasted as the Luzianne.
