To me, Starbucks regular coffee just tastes burnt. Maybe it's because it is burnt...

I am not a Starbucks fan either. It is just nasty. It tastes like that
coffee you find at midnight that was in the Bunn cooking all day.
I had a hard time finding a regular cup of coffee in New Zealand too.
It is all espresso there. We talked to the owner of a little
restaurant out in the country for a while and she said that was fairly
new and she was not sure why the whole country "got on the bandwagon".
She didn't like espresso either but that was what the market demanded.
She sold me a cup of regular coffee from her personal pot.

I don't like the coffee Starbucks brews and serves. It always tastes
"too strong" for my taste. I do like WaWa brewed coffee, though.

The 7-11 coffee was real good in the 70s. When they changed the cups,
the coffee was different. It was all part of an "improvement" in the
food and beverage center and I am sure the coffee blend changed. I
think some of the flavor may have come from the cup. ;-)

1979 I stopped at a Circle K for morning coffee on my way to work. That
place had the best coffee I consistently came across. Decent coffee
grounds, and probably the perfect brewing temperature in the machine.
