I have been lots of places and had lots of coffee,,,, even from the Very first Starbucks in Seattle.... And still their coffee is just ok,,,, I is so overpriced and still not thought very highly of in Seattle... The secret is addiction, marketing and peoples habit patterns...
The very BEST coffee I ever had was at the airport in Managua Nicaragua one night when I ended up there and had to buy $16,000.00 of jet fuel to get back to the U.S.,,, At 3:00am they insisted on sharing some coffee that was made by an old women with some home roasted beans ground in front of my eyes. ,, I will never forget it,,,, It was black,, no bitter taste ,, very smooth and left a nice flavor in your mouth afterwards...

i tend to base my decision to buy starbucks or dd on convenience - if there are both near by i'll hit starbucks but if there's only d.d. i'll go for that.
fwiw, starbucks is remarkably consistent.
can't say the same about d.d., where the coffee can be watered down.
not a pastry/donut guy anymore, so all i care about is da coffee.
whenever i'm on the mass pike, i go out of my way to hit the rest stations that have lavazza coffee - oh my God that stuff is out of this world.

How the heck can you tell bad coffee from good coffee when you dump two or three sugars and a few ounces of what they call cream in it? It could be dredged from the bilge and you couldn't tell the difference. 
I think the only way to discriminate between good Java and bad Java is to drink it black............just my opinion.  |
