Postum is another excellent caffeine-free hot drink which tends to be placed in the same category as Teeccino - a coffee alternative.
And, until August 31, 2016, there's a buy 3 jars, get 1 free sale of Postum from Postum's official website.
I only ever tried the Original flavor, which never tasted that much like coffee to me. But, I liked it anyway, especially since I wasn't even looking for a perfect replica of coffee - just something new (to me) and different from what I usually drank.
Fortunately, Postum was so popular that a different company (Eliza's Quest Foods of Charlotte, North Carolina) revived it in 2012.
Which is very unusual - since I don't think any other discontinued product I ever liked ever got revived. I wish such revivals would happen more often.
I haven't had Postum in a long time, maybe since 2004 or something. But even though I didn't drink it very often (since I mostly drank caffeinated tea instead), I still liked it.
I read on this page that Postum was actually discontinued by the company Kraft in 2007, which I found very surprising and bizarre. Why would any company discontinue such a good, popular product?
