Its definitley not worth the price lol. If you get the high end stuff its very good with little acidity which is the allure of it. Haven't had it much but have the few times I been to SE Asia to try it. Taste different due to the low acidity but honestly no much better of better than most cups you would get at a good to decent coffee shop in US.I'm not a coffee aficionado so maybe I can't tell the difference, but I went to a weasel coffee farm in Vietnam and tried their coffee and it just tasted the same as their normal coffee. Only it was 5 times more expensive. Normal Vietnamese coffee is pretty good to me so I brought bags of it back home.
No lol but I can't convince my wife of this. She puts so much milk in her coffee that it wouldn't matter what brand we bought.I usually just buy Folger's or store brand. Any aficionados out there? Is buying premium stuff really much better?
You needs alot of flavored creamer to drown out the awfulness of Folgers and thats doesnt even always work.No lol but I can't convince my wife of this. She puts so much milk in her coffee that it wouldn't matter what brand we bought.
But whatever, she doesn't waste money on designer clothes anymore so I'll let her have her premium coffee
Agree, I’m a big fan of coffees from the African continent. My favorite is Kenya, but Ethiopia, Congo, Burundi are all good too. The place I order my coffee from used to occasionally get this coffee from the Congo that was a banger, but I haven’t seen it offered in a year or two.A high quality Eithipoian coffee safest go to - you cant go wrong.
Its the birthplace of coffee ........... still the most consistent and best. Kenyan is very good as wellAgree, I’m a big fan of coffees from the African continent.

I don’t drink coffee myself, but popular favorites among enthusiasts include Stumptown, Blue Bottle, Lavazza, and Peet’s for a range of roasts and flavors. Many people also enjoy exploring local roasters for fresh, unique beans.No offense to you--this my own personal taste and YMMV, as it should--but I always thought Folgers tasted like it was stirred with a used pencil before being served.
We usually get this

or one of the other of this brand's varieties. I like dark roasts as a general rule and this stuff is quite good.
I wouldn't go so far as to call myself an aficionado, but I like good coffee a lot and a manual coffee grinder not so good coffee not nearly so much.

My wife was on a blueberry flavored k-cup kick for a while, now it's pumpkin spice, but I find that unless I run a cup of just hot water through or put the pod-holder-thing in the dishwasher first, my coffee tastes like her fru-fru stuff.I have one of those reusable keurig pods.
I have pumpkin spice gas station coffee right this second!!!My wife was on a blueberry flavored k-cup kick for a while, now it's pumpkin spice, but I find that unless I run a cup of just hot water through or put the pod-holder-thing in the dishwasher first, my coffee tastes like her fru-fru stuff.
Do any other sherbro's notice this?
