Folgers coffee
Although, roasted coffee was available in New
York before the beginning of the nineteenth century, it was still
considered a luxury for big-city dwellers and was entirely unknown
to the population at large. As for ground coffee, it was unheard of
at the general level.
Under the leadership of James Forger, the
Pioneer Steam Coffee and Spice mills, renamed as J.A.Folger &
Co. in 1872 expanded dramatically. Its principal product was
bulk-roasted coffee. But J. A. Folger & Co. also continued to
produce ground coffee, which was sold under various labels,
depending upon the grade. The most expensive blend, which was
labeled with a picture of a ship in San Francisco Bay, was called
Folgers Golden Gate Coffee.Folgers & Co. developed an entirely
new vocabulary to describe the "cup" qualities of their various
coffees. The company developed a "taste standard" for its best
coffee, and each shipment of green coffee beans received the
cup-test so that it could be assigned its proper role in producing
Folgers coffee.In 1963 the Procter & Gamble Company (P&G)
of Cincinnati, OH, acquired the Folgers Coffee Company and began
national distribution of the products under the name Folgers. Since
P&G acquired Folgers, it has doubled its business, making it
America's number one coffee brand. Folgers continues to produce
superior quality coffee, using mountain-grown beans ripened to
perfection. As Folgers celebrates its 153rd anniversary, P&G
looks forward to the continued success of this high-quality coffee
brand.
Folgers offers a variety of coffees to fit a variety
