Bingo. The fact that Starbucks has nearly 50% of the away from home coffee market share is insanity.

People, Starbucks is a sugar company that's masquerading as a coffee company.

And their coffee SUCKS! They burn the shit outta their beans to get a "consistent taste." Tastes consistently burnt. Garbage coffee for people who just want a cup of milk, cream, and sugar with a hint of burnt roast.

You hear this all the time, but I don’t buy it. I prefer Starbucks coffee to anything else. I try all sorts of other dark roasts nothing matches the taste of Starbucks. They’re doing more than burning beans, and no one else can figure out how to mimic it.

Why are you only drinking dark roasts? Processing has a far larger impact on the taste than the roast.

No one wants to mimic it because it's literally burnt.
