Dunno if this has been done, but...

Favourite kind of coffee? Instant and cafe type ones.

Im loving the peppermint mocha in starbucks at the moment, and instant I like nescafe espresso, though I have about 2 spoonfuls per cup :yes:

Yourselves?

    I'm a tea drinker at heart but I love Vanilla Lattes from the big blue coffee company.

    Oh I'm so jelous. I like the holidays the most becasue that flavor comes out. Its still not out at the one I go to :grump: I love that one. With the red sprinkles :heart:

    I also enjoy
    triple skim white chocolate mocha
    triple skim maple machiatto with some cinnamon on top
    And, if I'm to make it at home... can't remember the brand, but get the french vanilla coffee with a carmel cream.

    Nescafe Gold Blend for every day drinking
    Caffetiere for after dinner, or as a treat
    Regular Americano with milk if in a coffee shop

    Exactly, and pissing around with coffee too much is also wrong.

    Coffee needs to be fresh proper coffee, ideally organic and free trade and rainforest grown. But the flavour is the most important thing really.

    Totally agree. It isn't the same as coffee at all, its a different beverage altogether.

    I love a really strong double espresso, really dark roasted beans and no bitterness. Organic if I can and always free trade. Don't do starbucks, it is bitter as, the caf around the corner from the office does a lovely take away.

    Druckers Vienna Patisserie do the best coffee in Coventry without a doubt. (And the cakes are ok too - that's an understatement btw but since this thread is about coffee and not cakes...) You HAVE to try it if there's one near you.

    Cappucino, Double Espresso or a Latte depending on my mood...
    I agree, Instant Coffee is no way near as good but my favourite instant coffee is Nescafe Kenjara Mild.
    At work I've started making myself Coffee's which are roughly 50% coffee (yes real ground coffee) and 50% cream with 2 sugars.....oh my god they are addictive!

    I really like Turkish coffee but hardly ever drink it, think it's a location thing, as it always tastes better after baklava in Turkey/Israel/Harringay!

    It's what the Dutch like to drink in their Coffee Shops whilst intoxicating themselves, aswell. :D

    Its really not the right sort to use, but Jamaican Blue Mountain makes amazing espresso's.

    But then Blue Mountain is about £20 a pack more expensive than even its closest coffee.
