    Default Coffee!

    Someone recommend a type of coffee for me to try. I usually have a Flat White (Pretty much a Cafe Latte), but it has been getting a bit boring lately. So if someone could recommend a new type for me to try I'll go up to the shops and buy it tomorrow.

    Coffee forever!

    Not particularly fond of coffee as a drink, so I have no preference, but caffiene, along with aspirin, are the true miracle drugs of the modern age. Many, many of my late-night essay rushes have been fueled on caffiene. ;)

    Well, some will call me a heretic now, but I really like Senseo Coffee.

    The flavours "Vienna" and "Rio de Janeiro" are my favourites.

    There's nothing like a couple of cups of cafe viennois or "Vienna" on chilly day with a beautiful woman. It is after all espresso, either one or two shots, and with a thick whipped cream, and a sprinkle of chocolate on top... Eh, but I've never had one really done well in the States.

    Coffee is the single worst substance ever devised by mankind. Tea is superior in every way. You shouldn't need to load a drink with sugar and cream to make it possible to swallow.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Have you tried a Mocha? Those, Cappuccino, and straight Espresso are generally the only espresso drinks I go for. I used to make my own, but it was too much hassle for as little as I drank it. Most of the coffee I drink now is brewed in a press pot.

    I agree the others who have said black coffee is the way to go.
    Some of the best coffee I've drank was Kenya Nyeri, but there's good quality stuff from all over the world- just look out for that vile, over roasted, burnt tasting stuff (usually served up by Starbucks and their ilk).

    Kopi Luwak. Always wanted to try it, but never gotten around to it. Not easy to find due to scarcity, you'd probably have to order it online.

    I'm a double espresso, no milk, no sugar kind of guy. White chocolate mocha? A man shouldn't even know what that means. I'm sure Clint Eastwood doesn't.

    Coffee...Black and very very very strong.

    If it has sugar its a soft drink, if it has cream/milk etc its just a blitzed tiramissu.

    Also I am not ashamed to say I love starbucks coffee. Venti black americano with 2-4 extra shots and a good book/newspaper/magazine
