Esspresso Italiano if you like non-bitter low-acidity coffee. Apparently it uses mostly Arabica beans. Bridgehead is also just generally good. If you want coffee that tastes like the smell of grounds, you will need a better brewing method like aeropress, french press or overnight cold brew. Overnight cold brew will be the most delicious but will also cost the most amount of time (12 hours overnight). Aeropress is the simplest and quickest way to get taste-like-it-smells coffee.

I used to prefer coffee, but after upping the quality of the tea I buy I think I might be starting to favor black tea a little. I enjoy watering it down over the day so that I transition from hot tea to iced tea, flavor wise.

Find a local roaster. See if they have direct trade coffee. If they don't, then look for another roaster. If they do, try their offerings. Well done specialty coffee is a different world entirely than the coffee you've been drinking.

Grab a decent burr grinder and an aeropress and at least some sort of water filter. You'll make coffee that is better than how that big brand stuff smells.

>> No.5534061

>>5534050
Also, if the coffee does not display the date it is roasted on, or that date is more than 2 weeks old, do not buy it. Roasted coffee is at its prime for 10-14 days post roast. It is garbage after 3 weeks. Ground coffee is at its prime within 30 seconds of grinding, and loses most of its aromatic compounds within about 5 minutes.

For Burr grinders, I would recommend the Hario Skerton (manual grinding) for $35 or the Baratza Virtuoso for $220 (electric grinding). I currently use a Hario but ordered a Virtuoso online. The Hario produces very consistent and fine grinds but it's time consuming as well as a pain in the ass to grind.
