Central America = FROM COSTA RICA comes one of the Central American coffees that are especially valued for their rare winey tang. : Have you tasted this rare tangy flavor that, experts concede, is not duplicated anywhere else in the world? v vl only way it could be obtained. Today, how- ever, your grocer has it packed by Folger in flavor-tight vacuum tins. w Why Most Coffees Taste Alike Ordinarily you note little real difference when you change from one brand of coffee to another. For over 70 per cent of all the coffee entering the United States comes from one common region—where Nature gives it [PUBLISHERS PHOTO SERVICE, the same common taste, Central American coffees used by Folger are another type altoger.her..w They are grown in a different country where soil and climate produce a flavor unlike any other coffee in the world. T A i You will realize that this is no ordinary coffee with the very first rush of fragrance that comes with the opening of the tin. ) The Flavor Test Because Folger flavor is so distinctly differ- ent, we make an unusual offer. Buy a pound of this coffee today. Drink it tomorrow morning. Next morning drink the coffee you have been using. The third morning serve Folger’s again. If for any reason you do not choose Folger's, your grocer will gladly refund the full price. We’ll pay him. That’s fair, isn't it? Why not try it today? FOLGER COFFEE CoO.
