Legend has it that in 1907 President Teddy Roosevelt visited Maxwell House, the prestigious Nashville hotel and after finishing a cup of their namesake coffee, he declared it was, good to the last drop.. At least that is what Maxwell House Coffee Company advertised in 1920. While legends are romantic they are rarely accurate.
A few tidbits about Maxwell House â A Nashville Banner article from 1907 quoted Teddy Roosevelt as saying of that famous cup of coffee: âThis is the kind of stuff I like to drink, by George, when I hunt bears.â Nothing about âgood to the last drop.â Though maybe that phrase didnât sound as quotable back then.
