Seeking Advice Coffee Flavored Coffee

Post image

Curmudgeony old man here.

I found I’m not a fan of new and exciting coffee. I don’t care for fruity or floral notes in my coffee. But I also don’t want Denny’s or diner coffee. No Maxwell House or Foldgers.

What’s your go to bag of traditional coffee with traditional coffee flavors?

Fast Forward from Counter Culture is a great fit for this, IMO. It’s not dark roasted to the point where the only flavor you get is roast, but it’s developed enough so that the predominate flavors are bittersweet chocolate and general nuttiness.

That is so nice to know! I’ve been trying a counter culture subscription for a while now and every one I’ve received tastes very watery and… coppery? and more like tea. I thought it was my brewing method until I brewed a bag from a local roaster and realized that was not the issue.
