Hey there Ms Superduper. Costa Rican Coffee. Supposed to some of the best on earth. My little sis gave me some for my B-Day. it is a little more expensive coffee but well worth it. I hope you like it if you purchase it. I have not found anything as good. Peace and hope you find some good coffee.

it's the sugar and creamer that makes coffee taste good, otherwise all coffee kind of tastes bad.

You have got it the wrong way around.
The rust blight affects the Robusta's.....not the Arabica beans.

Good coffee is not as important as good water.

Just like brewery water, it's not out of the tap.

people have you tried using a French press to make your coffee? I've tried a lot of different coffee's, the press helps bring out the flavor in the coffee. Now I'm using Starbucks Sumatran dragon good bang excellent flavor. This using 22 oz. of filtered water and 4 heaping scoops of coffee

Unlike Brazil, which produces a third of global coffee, Central American growers usually cultivate Arabica coffee rather than the intense and harsher Robusta coffee. In blends, Central American beans often are mixed in to lend flavor.

“Brazil hasn’t been affected by the rust. The lower quality picks up the slack,” said Peter Giuliano, director of the Specialty Coffee Symposium, an annual confab for coffee professionals.

“What are Folgers, Maxwell House, Kraft, General Foods, Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts going to do? They’ll start mixing more Robusta in bags of Arabica,” said De Leon of the coffee growers cooperative Fedecocagua.

I've had Starbucks a few times in my life and absolutely hated it! Unless, of course, there was lots of flavoring syrup in it...not good for the waistline. I've had Dunkin Donut coffee and it's pretty good. I really like Gevalia traditional roast but it gets pretty pricey. Now I've had Tim Horton coffee in the past too and didn't too much care for it, it was always strong. But in the last week I've had it twice and I don't know what they're doing differently but it was very good. Now since I've seen Gevalia traditional at my local market, I may start buying that again, that's my favorite.

Have you tried Eight O'Clock?

YES! Good water, french press . . .all good things to try.

Percolated coffee that my grandma used to throw eggshells in the basket, lol

Yes I have. Sometimes it's buy one, get one at the local store. It's pretty good.

I have to say, Gevalia holds up well being stored. We used to have a subscription, and we were flooded with coffee before I finally cancelled. lol.. We have been using it up lately, and it held up really well (for 2 years old, not re packaged or frozen) In storage room of 75 degrees or under, all this time. (whole bean)
