I can't remember who it was that was interested in great coffee in the San Diego area, but I have managed to find a fairly authoritative blog that compiles reviews of coffee & coffee shops, in which several San Diego shops are reviewed. Hope this helps you drink some great coffee.
For everyone else, this guy have been all over the place, so find your local coffee shop, drink some world class coffee and espresso.
I have heard okay things about blue bottle, but ritual is definitely considered to have world class coffee and baristas. Check them out if you live in the san fran area.
My girlfriend is a barista at Starbucks and usually makes me some weird drink that has Vanilla bean,ice,milk,protein,and chocolate chips needless to say its not a coffee drink but is delicious and reminds me of cookies and cream

I actually wouldn't mind trying more spiced or flavoured coffee.
The thing I hate the most about coffee is like the coffee breath you get from drinking it.. seems like it sticks to your tongue and mouth, lol.
XD
Actually, coffee grounds are used as an odor neutralizer when sampling different scents, say for candles or perfumes. If you don't like the smell, you can add your favorite scent to the grounds and leave them in a bowl around the house. This is the reason YOU DONT PUT COFFEE GROUNDS IN THE FRIDGE OR FREEZER because the oils soak up the smells in the fridge and ruin ur tasty beans. It's the same logic behind iced brewed coffee recipes mentioned awhile back.
makes sense.. well I always see a bunch of loose beans in the grocery store in so many flavours.. wouldn't mind grinding some up and trying them.. well, maybe not from a grocery store.
tim hortons is definitely great, but it's just plain coffee and I don't much like getting those "flavour shots" that they have, lolz.

My mom puts coffee when cooking stuff like pork to reduce the smell.

Aren't these the same thing, just made differently. I mean both come from coffee beans, one is just stronger and more concentrated because of the process used to extract the coffee. I don't get this post at all.
Then there is this one

Cans? Seriously cans? The only time I've had coffee out of a can was ontop of a ski-mountain in Japan and that was because it was -15c and my ass was frozen.
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to coffee. I've never made it O_O I do love dunkin' donuts coffee though haha. Starbucks is a little pricey but I feel like it has 2x the caffeine because it jacks me up whenever I get it. Black though I don't like them creams and things
Nothing like fresh coffee in super sealed packages...
Any of you who never gave The Coffee Fool or other online retailers a shot are really missing out. It's cheap too, 10$ on coffeefool... really no incentive not too.
I believe they say because they buy small amounts of super fresh coffee from the distributors, it gets to you fresh.

I checked that site out and 12 ounce of Kona was like 26 dollars ;;;;;;;;
Ive been around some other countries in europe and asia, drink coffee everywhere and still love our coffee the most, the smell and the taste are truly different or to me really "coffee", last time i take one dutch guy, and a british, really enjoy the expression when they drink a vietnamese coffee, highly recommended if u r a coffee lover, beside, italian coffee drink in Italy probably the best in Europe as well, just a pic to show how we usually drink coffee in vietnam
