Ugly Mug Coffee: Take A Cup Of Coffee
March 10, 2008 – 12:08 am | Written by KiwiPulse
This is the kind of advertising that I will never get bored of. I can watch and read it over and over again. What an odd yet different name for a coffee company “Ugly Mug Coffee”. This Memphis (USA) based company is founded by Mark Ottinger. He started his first coffee house in 1998 in a campus hangout where he learned a lot of spiritually uplifting coffee-fueled philosophizing.
I personally have never tasted their beans before but there are good reviews about it. They say that these are delicious coffee. Each has been fully flavored with a unique and interesting taste along with the very pleasant brewing aroma. Coffee lovers can expect to choose from a variety of flavors or blends like the First Cup, Making Waves, Cinnamon Sugar Cookie, Saving Grace, Hardy Passion, Good Vibes. To promote their variety unique flavors, Ugly Mug Coffee released these ads with the clever names and appealing packaging.

Advertising should serve one purpose and that is to make you remember the product. A name like Ugly Mug coffee is certainly going to accomplish that.
