Isn't this all just a matter of what you are used to? I don't drink much coffee (I prefer tea or scotch ;-)) so my opinion (I prefer Dunkin Donuts coffee to Starbucks) shouldn't matter. But take my mother, who can throw back a few cups a day, and can barely live without the thing: she cannot even figure out U.S designer coffee (Starbucks, et al). She thinks its some sort of bitter-sweet soup or some such. ;-)
