It's an acquired taste, you may at some point like it... otoh you may not. Personally I always liked the smell of it, but didn't like the taste or start drinking it till I was about 20 or so. Unlike alcohol, which very few people would drink without the actual alcohol content, coffee flavor seems to be pretty popular, as decaf has caught on more than near-beer, and various yogurts and ice cream come in coffee flavor ( coffee ice cream = :heart: )... so don't say it's just the caffeine ;)

I dislike coffee, but I do drink it when I need to stay up/at a party (only legal drug, nobody = 21). I am sad.

I love the smell, I love a properly made Capiccino, but I can't stand regular coffee. If I need to stay up, its black tea with 3 bags/cup.

I don't drink coffee either. Terrible stuff. Smells good though. Plus, caffeine does nothing to me except make me pee a lot.

Love the smell of it in bean, ground bean and brewing coffee... HATE the taste of regular black coffee even with an ass load of cream and sugar. But give me a starbucks mint mocha and I'm a happy mofo!

I used to hate it but I've been drinking it lately. My roommate got a coffee maker, combine that with the lack of pop I'm used to, and there you have it. I like it plain black out of the pot.

Same logic for me.. I do like it, but I don't drink it because its just not good for you in numerous ways. :)

I tried to like coffee, but I can't stand it either. Back when I was in college I thought coffee would be the perfect drink; cheap and loaded with caffiene but I just can't stand the taste. Every so often I will smell some coffee and really want some then I will just stare in the to cup sniffing it and not able to drink any.

Years ago when I went to Europe for a few week weeks I tried some coffee there thinking maybe I would like a different style or something, but it was a no go. Discovered I love chianti, though.

I like how it smells sometimes, and I like certain flavored coffees. But not straight up coffee.
