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.

You ask for an “Americano”.

I figured that out myself but it is just a shot of espresso in a cup
of hot water. The lady who ran the restaurant had a Mr Coffee in the
back for herself.
The absolute best coffee I have ever had was at the Myrtle Bank Hotel
in Kingston Jamaica. The Ritz in Naples was a close second. It is a
very strong coffee but not bitter, burnt or harsh in any way. It just
has a very distinctive taste to it and I am not sure how they do it.

Try Caribou Coffee's "Mahogany". It's a dark roast with a smooth flavor.

Actually, the best coffee is whichever 'bold' Costco has on sale. I'll keep my eyes open for
Caribou. Does it come in a K-cup?

Yes, whole bean, ground, and K-cup. Make sure it's Mahogany, they make one that's just Caribou, but it's a medium roast.
