There's an independent coffee shop in town I sometimes to go that has the best Swiss Chocolate coffee. I mean just out of this world, amazing taste. I tried Godiva Chocolate Truffle coffee & my God, is it shit. Just awful.
Considering how much coffee I drink to get my day started I should be more particular, but I'm really not. I just hit up whatever espresso stand or starbucks and get an americano with an extra shot, iced in the summer. My preferred method of brewing coffee is the french press.
^you know TDR surprisingly that shit isn't to bad.
Well here is the thing. It is just re-branded. Like when I was 28 and took a job for three weeks at the Mrs. Weiss noodle factory. Twice per day they would stop the line and changes the bags on the bagging machine. They started off with Mrs. Weiss bags, changed to Heritage House bags (the store brand for Fisher-Fazio), and finally they changed the bags to the black and white generic type bags. The noodles were never changed. So with most of the items on your grocer's shelves the store brands are a less expensive route to the exact same roduct as name brands.
There are of course a few exceptions such as ketchup, there is Heinz and nothing else.

Very true, I had a friend that worked for a mattress factory, they would do a run of a thousand or so mattresses, then sew different labels onto them for different clients. in the end, the price would vary by as much as 50% for the same product.
I dig Tim Hortons coffee, because they kick you out of Canada if you don't. I also like coffee that has sat on a burner for a long time, I have no taste when it comes to the shit.

I'm not that particular about it.
So long as it's drinkable, flavor wise, i'm down.
Think it's due to friends and family always making mud-style coffee.
In my experience, though, Starbuck's standard black (whatever they call it) is the worst shit i've ever tasted in my life.

Starbucks coffee tastes like burnt mud filtered through a dirty sweat sock.

My husband will drink coffee that's been sitting around for awhile. I don't know how he can stand it, it just has a icky taste when it's a few hours old.
In Seattle we affectionately refer to them as "charbucks". Thankfully the coffee/cafe culture is so ingrained around here that if you don't want Starcucks , walk across the street and there will be a competitor, usually with better coffee.

Yeah, Starbucks is NASTY. You couldn't pay me to drink that shit.
I like the Keurig version of Van Haute Columbian blend.
nescafe is pretty much standard here. I like it.
This.
Also, Moccona Dark Roast. Blackblackblack. Milk is for pussies.
:mad: I use milk in my coffee along with Truvia.
