Question:

About a year ago McDonalds changed their brand of coffee for the better, it has a great flavor that they did not have before. A few years back another company has a similar taste of their coffee but they added a flavor to enhance their coffee. Could it be that McDonalds is using a flavor?

Answer:
I doubt that they would use a flavor to change the taste. The most likely reason for the different flavor is they just changed to a different blend of coffee. The flavor of any coffee is affected by the coffee beans used, the type of roasting, and the type of grind. Also, the flavor would be superior if they grind the beans before brewing, rather than using pre-ground coffee.
