I drink decaf, partly because I don't want the stimulating effect of caffeine but mostly because the caffeine gives me a gastritis.
I haven't tasted a decaf coffee that tastes good enough to drink it without sugar:cry:
Whenever I drink a normal cup, it's either Douwe Egberts, or...can't remember the other one's name, something with an 'A'....Antigua something? Can't remember now.
When I go hiking I take along the blue 3 in 1 Enrista packets.

You have to 'withdraw' to get the symptoms;)
I suppose after you started drinking green tea your coffee consumption went down a bit?

It's been some time now since I've ingested store-bought coffee. For some reason, my ulcerated stomach can only tolerate Espresso (bizarre, but true). :( That, and the fact that my taste seems to have evolved from the good ol' all-you-can-drink M&B filter coffee days. My favourite brands by far would be Lavazza and Illy. However, I'm only really able to drink one cup in the morning these days. :)

Lavazza is my favourite brand for espresso / cappucino, but we got a bean grinder recently. It makes the BEST filter coffee by far. We've had a Delonghi machine for ages and never used it - the coffee tasted bland. A friend recommended we grind our own beans and, since doing that, we've been huge fans of our beloved Delonghi. :D The only instant coffee I'll drink is the Nescafe Espresso one...

Instant Jacobs. A lot of the companies I go to have the most horrible filter stuff so its better to just drink solid instant.

If I've got access to good filter and time then a large cup with a decent spoon of condensed milk in it works.

And.... I have no idea what you guys are talking about! lol although I'd like to pretend to be sophisticated and be able to talk about expensive coffees... :(

Enjoying a nice hot cup of Jacobs now after church :D

I love coffee. I have a Nespresso machine which is damn awesome and have one of those a day, random flavours. But as far as instant goes, I use Nescafe gold.

I forgot Davidoff Cafe, but that's kak expensive so we only buy it about once every two months.

I'm going to try Douwe Egberts some time.

This thread made me got me thirsty enough for a cup of Jacobs coffee :D

/subscribes to thread...

I drink anything from 5 to 10 cups a day. Just depends on my mood and how it tastes on the day. I enjoy it strong, hot, black and a wee bit of sugar. No milk.

I haven't found a favourite yet, but I would start world war three if I got serve frisco or anthing similar *spits*

At work they have installed a coffee machine which grinds the beans before making the sloo. I am quite addicted to an espresso + normal coffee in a cup. Just makes it a bit stronger :D and the taste is awesome. Unfortunately, the taste is also moreish.

My only problem is that too much and it corrodes my tummy big time. I suppose every addiction comes with its downsides.

/sips whiskey and thinks of next cup
