I'm not the most cultured coffee drinker, but it's amazing to me what passes as "good" in the US. All the self-proclaimed coffee addicts I know drink either McDonald's or Starbuck's, which taste like lukewarm piss water and burnt coffee bean scraps mixed with 77 different varieties of mint flavoring, respectively.

The one time I had coffee that I though was "good" was some sort of expensive French blend. I can't remember the name or taste, as it was a long time ago.

I stopped drinking coffee regularly a while ago, along with most soft drinks. I find that not being addled by caffeine/sugar rushes, while drinking lots of water, makes me fairly energetic for most of the day.
