WARNING!!! Captain's Gourmet Coffee is a Fake!!! REMOVED FROM CPH.COM!

Here is another example of how people were manipulated by Russ Herriott with the June 25, 2010 "Warning!!!  Captain's Gourmet Coffee is a Fake!!! message".  Heated posts ensued due to belief in the request to spread the word.

From Cornelia Marie / Phil Harris Coffee Anyone?  Scroll down to July 12, 2010

  • Kristen Yonker says:
    Just be sure you do not buy coffee from Marsha Cruz. She is not at all affiliated with Captain Phil Harris and his coffee. So if you want the coffee, go to Captain Phil’s wesbsite, as Marsha Cruz is not selling his coffee. BEWARE.


  • Marsha Cruz says:
    To Kristen Yonker, I don’t know who you are, and you certainly do not know me. WHO the hell do you think you are shooting your mouth off about Phil, the coffee, or me? You were not involved with Phil and I, so mind your own business. Russ Herriott is currently trying to sell coffee off of Phil’s website and he doesn’t even have any coffee. So feel free to join the line of suckers he is taking money from with no product!
    If you ever make a slanderous comment about me again, I’ll sue you for defamation of character.

    There is nothing illegal about stating a fact.

    Hello Everyone,
    Just would like to clarify the coffee information.
    Deadliest Brew is not affiliated with Phil Harriss of the CM.
    Yes we do have a coffee company, Captains Brew. http://www.captainsbrew.com
    If you have any questions you may e-mail them to dbcrew1@yahoo.com.
    Thanks, Marsha
    Captains Coffee

The word you’re looking for is Libel, written deframation of character.

    To Kristen and Chris…Look at the date of Marsha’s post, Jan. 14, 2009. At that time she and Captain Phil were running the coffee company. “Deadliest Brew” was an old company he had worked with, but changed to Captain’s Reserve Coffee, the one he and Marsha ran. What she posted was true. After his death in Feb of 2010 she continued to run the coffee business until it was turned over to Russ Herriott to run. To my knowledge, since he has become “President and CEO” of Captain Phil’s coffee not a single bag has been sold, and all of the stores that carried it are no longer carrying it. Marsha has since opened her own coffee business and is selling her brand coffee. The coffee she sells is HER coffee brand, has nothing to do with Captains Reserve or Russ Herriott.


  • Marsha Cruz says:
    Thank you Bess for clarifying this. To be specific, I left the company on May 29th 2010, for lack of payment.
    I started my own coffee company, Bering Sea Brew. http://www.captainsgourmet.com
    I have no affiliation with Russ Herriott or the Harris boys.
    I worked with Phil for over 2 years, managing his coffee company and building the customer base. Doing all of the marketing and promotions, as well as the sales. We had a thriving business when he died, but, that business has sadly gone away.




  • If anyone would like to read the original posts that led up to this one, please click: Warning!!! Captain's Gourmet Coffee is a Fake!!! or
    Disciples of Untruth Spread the Word

    A recent visit to Captainphilharris.com provided the startling discovery that the WARNING!!! Captain's Gourmet Coffee is a Fake!!! has finally been deleted.  The offensive post inspired other online bickering  as shown in the above post.  Thank you for its removal.

    ONCE AGAIN it is requested that an apology be written to Ms. Cruz and posted on a prominent page of Captainphilharris.com.  It is requested that it stay there for 4 1/2 months just as the WARNING post did.  Even though website attendance has extremely declined, those remaining members of the "Captain Phil Nation" should be allowed to know they were duped and the post was strung together with lies.
