    I don't get coffee, it just makes me want to shit. I just stick to caffeine pills that cost less than 10 cents for the same amount that you get in a regular coffee.

      Coffee, at least good one, isn't just about caffeine, it's also about flavour.

        And don't forget the culture of coffee drinking. I think mostly about European countries (?) where you get your coffee in "real" cups (not that plastic or paper cup ones).

          I hate paper cups, they can instantly destroy the flavour of the best coffee. Even with mediocre coffee like the one at Starbucks you can notice the difference between a proper ceramic cup and the paper cup.

      I can't go by without coffee now. I drink it black or with a little bit of milk, depending on how good it is. It's about taste, not energy, as caffeine doesn't do shit to me - I used to (over)drink energy drinks and I could sleep straight after drinking one.

        If you want a really good coffee try a cold brew. You basically just pour the grinded coffee in cold water and put it in your fridge for 12 hours. You can then drink it cold or heat it (but cold is cool, it's summer after all).

        It tastes sweeter and less bitter the a hot brew and you won't ever have to put milk in it.

          Well that bitter side is one thing I actually like. Might try that though, have heard of it several times but never got to it!

        Caffeine has no effect on me I can down a can of Nae Danger, Red Bull or even several and i'm asleep pretty soon afterwards. I love the taste.

        Try Coffee with double cream for a real delight

          Meh, won't be able to find double cream around here! Dairy products are heavily controlled and heavy heat pasteurized around here, seems like the closest thing we have is heavy cream, which looks like isn't even closely the same.
