Your coffee - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Regular brew with a lot of powdered creamer. No other sweeteners other than what the powdered creamer contains. I love watching the corn syrup solids and other unpronounceables floating on top of that lovely nuclear liquid and slowly melt away in my cup. If I'm at work, I pour it over ice.

Great, now I want iced coffee and I'm supposed to be cutting down on caffeine. Confused

Roasted and in a sack.

Oh man, you left off Turkish coffee and Vietnamese coffee, which are *excellent*!!! - and *very different* from drip coffee, expressos, lattes etc.

When I'm in the US, I prefer American-style coffee. In the US, it serves a functional purpose to wake me up and keep me going. When I was living in France, though, it was a way of life, a culture, so for me, double expressos at a cafe, at least once a day. But I couldn't recreate the experience in the US, so I gave up on expressos. (I'll vote for expressos, because the European way of life is generally how I think life - at least, my life - should be. :-)

I miss European cafes; I've spent one summer in Bulgaria and Turkey, and a couple of summers in Vietnam as well, and I miss hanging out in Vietnamese cafes and their special way of making coffee.

But living in China the last five years till recently, I made the switch to tea - usually green tea, but black as well from time to time. The health benefits just can't be denied...

Anyone up for some Kopi Luwak, aka cat poop coffee? Supposedly very tasty and very expensive, but

In case you are unaware of this expensive delicacy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_Luwak

Yes, I've seen this on the menu in Indonesia and Thailand as well. Some countries use cat, others use rats! (I think Vietnam does this, if I'm not mistaken...) and other wildlife... It's supposed to be delicious, but I'm not sure I could brave it...

Regular. And black as a starless night when the moon has been covered by clouds.

Coffee is absolutely disgusting. A bitter drink for bitter people.

My source of caffeine comes from this:

Yeah, they were left out, but at least the Turkish coffee has been mentioned in this thread before … only the Greeks call it Greek coffee (it’s exactly the same, and most Greek people know that it’s actually Turkish). I don’t know Vietnamese coffee.
