Title: Ew this coffee is gross

They brewed some Starbucks dark French roast or something here at work and it tastes like a fucking foot. Looks like I'll be sticking to the regular stuff.

I wish we had a Starbucks close to my work so I could get a mocha.  :hyper

Starbucks is weird. I ask for a black coffee in there and they always ask if I want milk  ???

Whole Foods in Bellevue WA has a Dark French Roast which is some of the darkest fuckin roast ive ever seen. Starbucks standard drip roast o choice is their house blend which is a medium roast iirc.

Dark roasts are generally for people who like their coffee black and enjoy the taste of the bean itself. Medium and Light roast are more suited to people who like crap in their coffee, which is fine, the vast majority of starbucks customers like crap in their coffee. There is a lot to be said for a really dark roast tho :) yum

I blame Starbucks for convincing Americans that dark roasts are the only "real" way to drink a coffee. Thanks for fucking nothing, assholes.
Sumatran Mandheling medium roast FTW

DARK ROAST FTW!

MOST people dont drink dark roasts, very few of my friends do in fact. Ive just always liked my coffee black, and drinking a dark roast makes more sense in that situation. For me anyway.
