    That’s because McDonalds bought the coffee roasting company that was formerly used by Tim’s. New McDs coffee is literally original Tim’s coffee.

    Tim’s new coffee is awful and hardly worth drinking. Same as their now-reheated-from-frozen garbage donuts.

      Yup. But it still has brand recognition and most people order something like a triple triple nowadays so it’s little more than liquid coffee crisp. At that point, the quality of the coffee hardly matters, and Tim Horton’s is way cheaper than Starbucks.

      It’s similar, but not the same. You’re correct about the roasting company, though: Mother Parker’s. Drive past them every day on the way to work; smells great in the area.
