I like the free stuff we have at work. I think it's made by a company called "Not for resale".

I grind my own, but I used(when I bought pre-ground) to be a big fan of Nabob, especially their specialty blends. I've bought many a brand of bean since I started grinding and so far every cup of coffee made from freshground has been noticeably better than pre-ground. Everyone who likes coffee should get a grinder, IMO.

Any supercheap brand which I don't taste if I put in enough sugar. I don't like coffee, only drink it with so much milk and sugar that I don't taste the coffee anymore.

I grind my own..moca java is good..as is kona. Would like to try 100% kona..but hard to find and I don't know if the net is a good place to by it. I blend my own batch of french roast and hazzle nut flavored beans..and that's good too.

Kona is likely not even Kona.
Typically it is rebagged Costa Rican.
It can be good, especially if is not Genuine Kona, but the rebagged CR.

Moka refers to an old Dutch Port, which no longer exists in Yemen, and Java refers to Indonesia.
So, in old days, it was a blend of the 2 coffees.
Now it could be a blend of a sharp coffee, such as an Ethiopian Harrar and a full bodied coffee such as a Nicaraguan.
Or, if you are unlucky, it is chocolate flavored coffee.

jamaicain blue mountain whole beans, then I grind them myself!!!!
Which estate?
What year?
Mavis Bank is the standard, and it comes in wooden barrels.
I have some green beans from Mavis Bank.
It is certainly over rated.
If you really want great coffee, again, I have to recomend Costa Rica.

it's understandable...coffee is known to be an aphrodesiac.
I thought it was a great bowel stimulant? You realize only one of us can be right, think of the possibilities...

Oh and my favorite is whatever KMart has on sale in the 2lb can; Maxwell House, Chase & Sanborn, whatever.

I share fellow ATOTer franguinho's sentiment when he expressed the following opinion on coffee: "I'd rather drink a fermented nugget of my own poop."
