However I was lucky to find out I was not the only one who noticed this sour flavor issue wit
It was interesting to join the club as up to this point I am the only male member. I can’t help it, I like flavor in my coffee; anything from spice butter rum, cinnamon, mocha, vanilla and even chocolate; it all taste great. We are given a copy of the list to make suggestions every couple of months and they choose the ones more likely to be good. Of course it’s not always a guaranteed they will pick a good coffee, we have had a couple of “I don’t think so” flavors. I like to enjoy life, some people like beer, others like a good soda, juice or water. I like coffee while I work; it’s like a computer and a monitor, they just have to go together.
What about you? Do you like coffee? What kind do you like? Black, with milk, cream or powdered creamer? Sweet or just a touch of sugar? Coffee has so much variety it’s probably easier to figure out what toppings you want on your pizza. Share your choices, maybe I can be “influenced” to try a new flavor. I suggested Chocolate Cherry coffee; the name on the list reminded me of those chocolates with the cherry and rum flavor liquid inside it. It was a hit. For now, as the only guy in the group, I’ve decided not to make any more suggestions for a while, I just want to enjoy these 15 minutes of fame for a little longer. Besides, it’s a chance to show off with the girls that men too can make good choices. I’m a brave man for joining and surviving a club ruled by women and that’s probably why they like me so much. They are a great bunch and willing to tolerate me. That’s why I like all of them too.
I consider myself lucky. A man surrounded by ladies and drinking a great cup of coffee. Now that’s what I call being in good company. Here’s to all coffee lovers, cheers.
I'm not much of a coffee drinker. I do have some occasionally. I absolutely hate sugary coffee. I put a fair bit of either cream or non-dairy creamer in my coffee, but no sugar or sweetened/flavored cream. Coffee is pretty much reserved for those times when I'm too broke to afford cocacola though.

ReplyDeleteI use to be a coca cola addict. 2 liters a day most of the time. But I stopped and now drink it on occasions. I am not much of a sour liking person when it comes to drinking; it's probably why I don't drink alcohol much. I can have a drink from time to time but usually like it to be sweet. Beer is a rare thing to find in my hands, I don't really like the flavor but am willing to share one with a friend.
But coffee is like the elixir of life to me sometimes. Once I get a cup in me, my job becomes a piece of cake.
Flavoured coffee makes me gag. I tried it for a while but got sick of it like candy. To me it seems it completely hides the coffee flavour and becomes another drink. I'm a purist. Enjoy good French roast and Blue Mountain when I just want a mild smooth taste....and when I can afford it. Nothing like milling your own.

ReplyDeleteNot sure why but for some reason my mom makes a mean cup of coffee. Maybe it's the method in which she makes the coffee that is the key to her great coffee. Unlike coffee machines which pour hot water onto a filter with the coffee in it, my mom boils the water and adds the coffee straight into the water. She waits till the coffee is about to boil over the edges of the pot before she removes it and pours it into a cotton filter that looks like a sock attached to a ring with a handle which is sitting inside a coffee pot. Once all the liquid filters thru she removed the filter and throws the ground coffee away and we drink.
To be honest I have gotten so use to using technology that I don't bother to try things the old fashion way which was always good before tech came around. Even my moms cooking rocks when she does things the old fashion way.
I don't mind the flavored coffee as I enjoy trying something new and different for a change. Regular black coffee or with milk can be monotonous after a while. To each his or her own, right?
