35. Yes I'm seeing similar pricing in our stores too
Sun Feb 8, 2026, 11:56 AM
Feb 8

Not that anyone cares, but I have scruples and I only buy Colombian coffee.

If it's branded as Colombian, then it has to be from the country of Colombia, by law. (Anything else may or may not be from where they say.) Rarely do I see Colombian coffee in Dunkin Donuts packaging, so I'm not sure if they make it any more. These current price hikes on all brands of coffee are totally due to Chump's tariffs.

The US companies are passing the increase onto us, whether or not they had to pay the tariff, they're still charging consumers anyway - because they CAN!
