[pct-l] Good coffee ?

[ambery-80243 at mypacks.net]

I like coffee, but wanted something more robust than Folgers.  I have gotten something called Mud Gourmet Coffee that comes in a French Roast.  It's made by Harvest Foodworks.  It comes in a bag and you steep it like tea.  Not the cheapest - $1.50 for 2 bags.  You can get it at REI if they still carry it.

He hates freeze-dried anything.  :)  I remember seeing quick (and I believe ground) coffee in individual filled filters somewhere but can't remember where. Basically you dropped the filled coffee filter in your cup and poured hot water over it and let it steep (like a tea bag) for 3 minutes. Anyone got any idea where this (or these) products are available? I've tried Trader Joes, REI, and local grocery stores. The last place I remember seeing them was at a Food for Less store in Medford, Oregon. However, I'm currently in Vancouver, Washington with excellent access to the Portland area but no one knows what I'm seeking.  :(
