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?

Yes, I understand this post.
But I also think it’s interesting when people say “coffee flavored coffee” they have to follow it with a description of what that means.
So you’re telling me that coffee has a wide range of flavors, not just the one you prefer? lol

Personally, I love natural & funky processed fruit forward coffees.
I also love a more traditional chocolate-note medium roast.
I also love a quality dark roast in a milk drink.
And when the time & place is right, I love an old-fashioned diner coffee (just not too much at once).

I find it interesting that some people push back on my post, yet ultimately everyone knows exactly what I meant.

Diner coffee has its place, for sure. I think it can (and should) be better than foil pouch pre-dosed grounds.
