What is your favorite coffee?

I'm not meaning Folgers or Maxwell House. Instead I'm thinking of gourmet coffees. My favorites are:

Kona Coffee from Hawaii
Kenya AA Coffee

Sometimes I add a little Kahlua flavored syrup to enhance the flavor but with those two coffees the flavor is rich already.
 
Ha! I love Kona too! I also had these colombian beans from that I really loved. I forgot what they were called but they were one of the best tasting stand alone no creamer no anything, just straight from the coffeemaker coffees I've ever tasted. They were kind of sweet.
 
I love the strong flavor of our native coffee, Kapeng Barako (Liberica) and the different coffee blends sold in Coffee Beanery.
 
Not really a coffee person but I do like just a simple folgers or nescafe. However, I am into Starbucks. If I could I would get their White Chocolate Mochas all day..LOL
 
I don't ever try gourmet-type coffees, but I really should. I always mean to pick up something a little less mudane when I go to the store; maybe something for hubby and I to try on the weekend, but I never do. Maybe next time I go shopping.

Ha! I used to love White Chocolate Mocha too but the the sweetness (and, ergo, I conclude the enormous amount of calories in it) got to me. Now I go for a green tea frappe (which I doubt is that much healthier but...I'm trying to keep a positive mental frame here) whenever I'm feeling the need for something sweet from Starbucks XD
 
My favorite coffe is folgers: "The best part of waking up is folgers in your cup".;)
 
I prefer the original italian coffee,the cappucino. Any brand will do but i love the nescafe cappucino. The aroma is very inviting, somehow reminds me of the europe view.
 
I also love Cappucino. I am a big fan of coffee. I love to drink coffee. I guess in one day I can drink 4-6 cups. I love to smell the aroma of cappucino. I find it so relieving. when I'm under pressure, I just drink a cup of cappucino, then I'm fine.
 
Gourmet Coffee

Coffee is the most loved beverage of the world. The varieties of coffee available in the world are tremendous. I love Gourmet Coffee and Coffeebrekausa.com is the great site for some great gourmet coffee. :)
 
I and my husband are coffee snobs. We buy only whole bean Starbucks and grind our beans for every pot. There is nothing like a good smooth coffee to get you going in the morning. I do agree that in order to judge a good coffee it must stand alone in order to taste the true flavor.
 
I don't drink coffee, but I do like tea, especially the orange spice herb tea.

And the chai lattes at Starbucks.
 
I've been drinking the Starbuck's House Blend and French Roast coffees for a couple years now. I get them in the whole bean bags, and have a grind & brew coffee maker. I ran out of the Starbucks, and made coffee with a preground [name removed to protect the innocent}] brand. The amount of caffeine in the [Dragnet] brand was high.

So I'm curious if this is something anyone else has experienced? I use the measurer from the grinder, and measure 5 scoops and make six cups of coffee. So by my standards I'm using *less* coffee then the package says, yet the ground coffee (non-Starbuck's) has way more caffeine then the whole bean coffee.
 
I don't drink coffee regularly but when I do I prefer a high quality brand such as Kona. I also prefer to have favored coffee such as a mocha or vanilla flavored coffee. I also enjoy a cold or hot spiced Chai tea occasionally.
 
I like Kona too. I think it's a little pricey for day to day drinking but enjoy it a couple times a year.

I worked in a restaurant as a kid, and they served Kona coffee as part of the meal. I really enjoyed it. A year or so after I started working there they switched to a canned liquid instant coffee that was awful.

I don't know why they switched, and can't think that the canned instant coffee would be cheaper except perhaps for less wasted coffee [With the Kona they had two urns with about 5 gallons (I'm honestly guessing the volume here: the machine was 2 1/2 feet tall and each tank was about 14" in diameter) in each urn so they wasted a few gallons each night.]
 
I am a simple person and i love my coffee simple too but with lots of sugar in it.
Adding too many things to your coffee, takes the coffee thing out of it in my opinion.
 
ohh yum coffee .. I think I have to get this IV into my blood stream..

there are good kona coffee out there but I have been on a sweet kick with my coffee recently so I am brewing a french vanilla and or I swtich it up with a chocolate raspberry

I do admit I am a coffee snob when it come to getting my coffe at starbucks and or any other coffee house .... when I order a simple latte I want a latte not a cappuccino or a stirred espresso with some bearly warm milk .. yuck
 
My mom send me alot of fancy coffee. I never tell her that I'm not really fond of those. :)

I just like cafe latte from Starbucks. That simple.
 
goodness....all of these different coffees makes me glad I don't have the decision to make.

I'm a tea girl myself - iced....just plain ol' lipton bags. :p

I have switched from the white chocolate mochas to the chai tea at starbucks and it is so good. I am glad that I switched. I think my hips were starting to pay the price of all those mochas.
