Coffee what's your fav?

WaveCameCrashin

what kind of coffee do you drink ?

I just started drinking 8 0'clock bean coffee. I heard good things about it and it's been on sale at Target for around $3.85 . It's actually pretty good.So far I have only tried their columbian roast.

I don't know that it's my fav but I get the Sumatra from Starbucks everyday. It's pretty strong so I like it.

I drink anything as long as it's good. I favor Dunkin Donuts coffee though

If I'm brewing at home, I usually get Peet's.

Good stuff!

my favorite is the Starbuck's Christmas Blend. my sister gave me some a few years back, and it's tasty stuff. but i'm kicking myself b/c i forgot to buy a couple of bags before they took it off the shelves this year.

so i've been drinking this Costa Rican coffee that we bought on our honeymoon last July. it's really good--it's called Cafe Triangulo de Oro. we're almost out & i think i'm going to have to order more from their site!

damn, i drink a lot of coffee!

I'm not a huge fan of coffee but I do drink it.

I will only buy fairtrade (normally supermarkets own) and I take it white with 1 sugar. Although, I have tried Jamaican Blue Mountain in the past... t'was nice! :geek:

If anyone can recommend me a good, fairtrade coffee, I would be very grateful!

That's what I use every morning. For cheap(er) coffee it's very good.

Ugh!! I used to hate coffee - never drank it in my life - but we got a Keurig so now I'm addicted. :evil: :roll:

My favorite is Green Mountain Breakfast Blend or this Pumpkin Spice thing they had.

At least they are still wussie coffee drinks.

Jamaican blue coffee is really good ,but it's very $$$$$ $40 a lb is the cheapest I could find.Wal-mart has fair trade coffee.I tried their coast Rica blend and it was pretty good

a couple of weeks ago there was a taste test on the news and 8 0'clock was favored most it even beat Starbucks, so I figured hey why not. I must say I was impressed.

That stuff is pretty damn strong it could probably wake the dead, although I'm pretty close to it most mornings. :P

Has any one seen the quit smoking commercial and the guy is sitting in a dinner and he's trying to drink his coffe but he keeps spiling it all over him self ? freakin hilarious

Maxwell or Fletchers. I hate flavored coffees. I put a teaspoon of sugar and a little cream (or milk). I love how that tastes so much that to add any other flavoring ruins it.
I drink coffee exactly like my dad. When I was a kid, he use to let us drink whatever spilt over into the saucer. That is how I acquired the same taste.
He is fussy about his coffee. He has to have a saucer, with a teaspoon, and wants the cream, (or milk), and sugar already added and the teaspoon placed next to cup atop of saucer. Its funny. He wants my mom to serve him to the point of saying things like, "Laurie, where's the milk?" and the milk be right in front of him. Its his way of telling her she forgot to add milk and she is suppose to poor it in, not him. One time, I said, "Daddy, its right in front of you, can't you pour your own milk", and they all ignored me and she ran over and poured his milk!
All 4 of his daughters are trained to make his coffee the exact same way, if we are the one who offered him coffee. (He has no sons, or they would be too.)

I LOVE the Alta Rica from the nescafe range... it's instant coffee but tastes as good or better than most 'real' coffees I've had.

This is like reverse Rainman.

"Yeah, Laurie definitely puts milk in my coffee on weekdays. Definitely weekdays. Of course the milk is already poured when I get it. Defnitely poured before I get it. Yeah."

*Laurie gives him coffee and milk at the same time but forgets to pour the milk in*

"Uh-oh, no milk, yeaaahr, uh, no milk, Laurie no milk. Definitely no milk, Laurie. Uh-oh no milk."

*A few minutes later as they are driving on the freeway looking for a coffee shop"

"8 O'Clock Coffee - *bang* - the staple of morning drinks
8 O'Clock Coffee - *bang* - the staple of morning drinks

LOL! It is. It's funny as hell to watch. He just sits there with a dumb look on his face when anyone brings it to his attention that he can pour his own milk.
He'll pretend to look around, but its an obvious feeble attempt. The dumb look gives that away.

if money is no object

Jamaican blue mountain

local roaster: Oren's colombian supremo

store bought: really doesnt matter, its just to get me going, but typically maxwell house french roast

_Crazy_Mary_

Well, when my espresso machine is up & running I prefer to buy beans from a local roaster. They are always extremely fresh and produce a superb crema.
Now that it's broken, I like Peet's. I always buy whole bean.
haha, Yesterday on tshirthell.com I saw a shirt that said, "I like my coffee like I like my women.... ground up and in the freezer." :shock:

I'm a big coffee drinker and French roast is my fave for the everyday stuff.

For a treat I like Tchibo rich roast. Hard to find and well worth it.

My favorite coffee is the double-double! :P
(the canadians will understand!)

CHANGEinWAVES

any kind as long as there's cream and sugar.

never even heard of it-national brand?

On days that I work, I drink Maxwell House b/c why waste good coffee on work.

On other days, I break out the french press, and go for something a bit tastier although I have no out-and-out favorite.
