I hate the taste of coffee, and drink it because it is my only available option to stay awake on my long work shifts at odd hours. I drink it like cheap liquor, with mixers or as a quick shot (espresso) when possible.



That said, I got schooled on coffee chemistry. The dark roast acidic swill that is most common, is that way because it has a longer shelf life and it is easier to make consistently from different beans. That is what you get from starbucks regular coffee. It has lower caffeine as well.


If you can get light/blond roast, it has higher caffeine and lower acidity, and I think tastes less terrible.
