What coffee are you drinking?

After reading some favourable comments about Starbuck's Komodo Dragon blend, I finally bought a bag. Don't like it much-- it tastes burnt and just slightly bitter. A lot of the beans are broken; I suppose because they're so dried they chip easily just from contact with each other. Not impressed.

I love a dark rich brew, but this ain't it for me.

I like Starbucks Komodo, despite other people's negative experiences. My favorite Starbucks, which I now can only find in Europe, is their Ethiopia Yergacheffe. This used to be my house coffee, but I can only find it in places like Brussels now.

Sure. I just grind the beans and put them in a filter holder over a mug and pour boiling water over the grounds. If you go to buy some, be wary of the Blue Mountain blends.

+1 on the blends. Same with Kona.

I was wondering if Vinaigre had the beans already ground for espresso. Never would have thought to prepare this type of coffee in an espresso, is all.
