Blandest fucking shit I’ve ever had lmao

I keep telling myself to be open-minded and try things and keep vindicating my gut feeling that things will suck

    my assumption is that all these BLACK RIFLE NAVY SEALS OPERATOR coffee brands are just Robusta that’s been over-roasted, burned, and extremely bitter because for some reason that’s what Americans think is “strong” and good

      my brother drinks one called ☠DEATH WISH COFFEE☠ like even if it was the best coffee in the world (which it obviously isn’t) I wouldn’t buy that shit out of pure cringe

      why can’t guys just be normal, why does every stupid product have to appeal to their fragile masculinity

        Death Wish’s Valhalla Java blend is unironically worth a try, albeit pricey for what it is. The regular Death Wish is kind of meh; I found it to be kind of acrid from all the extra caffeine more than anything.

        Edit: The Valhalla Java stuff is a medium-dark roast with arabica and robusta, so take from that what you will.

      It’s the coffee equivalent of a guy with a goatee wearing Oakleys while ranting in the front seat of an overpriced pickup truck.

        at least those trucks are actually expensive and big and imposing. overroasted, bitter coffee doesn’t even have more caffeine content! light roast, fruity coffee generally has more caffeine and is “stronger” than the stuff that tastes like death. they’re just drinking garbage to feel manly, it’s so stupid.
