Black Velvet: David Lynch Brand Coffee

Posted by on Thu, Feb 2, 2012 at 1:45 PM

It's not called Black Velvet (booooo!), but this seems to be real:

Coffee's never been scarier (you can use that, David Lynch! And "Black Velvet"!). He's got light (not blonde), medium, and dark roast.

Black Velvet? You mean like that whiskey with the blonde woman in the black dress?

That's about a million times better than his barbie coffee commercial.

I've heard it sucks.

I heard it was pretty good, but Melena Ryzik accused it of not being flavor-driven enough and relying too heavily on unreliable narration.

Hasn't this coffee been around for awhile? I think you could have even bought some directly from the man when he was at Scarecrow video in January 2007.

@2 - I loved that commercial! I was sad to see it crushed by the copyright lunatics at Mattel. The Espresso Roast is better than the House Blend, but honestly both were a little disappointing given the source.

Oh, come on! No one's figured out yet that Lynch directed Blue Velvet, not Black Velvet?
