Not impressed with Nespresso
Let me preface this by saying I readily indulge in "bad coffee" occasionally, especially Timmy Ho's and Nescafe 3-in-1, and I actually enjoy those as a dirty treat now and again. That said, I'm lucky enough to drink high-end pour-overs at home on the regular, and that's where I feel the deep love for coffee: single-origin light roasts.
There's a Nespresso disc machine at work, and holy smokes that stuff is not my jam at all. It all tastes vaguely synthetic, harsh, burnt, and very unpleasant to drink black. I also find it weird that there's a pretty broad selection of "flavours" and there is not much difference between any of them. Has anyone else tried this stuff? What are your thoughts?
