    IMO Starbucks drinks are sugary poison, and even their regular black coffee is just not good. Not to mention their questionable ethics.

      I buy whole coffee beans from a local roaster but a few times I’ve run out and walked to the Starbucks around the corner to purchase a small package of whole beans.

      When I grind them they seem very oily and almost too soft somehow. That might be normal (I really don’t know) but for whatever reason it gives me heartburn (which I rarely have).

        They’re over roasted, which makes them crap.

        I have a couple local coffee shops that roast their own and boy, is it a thousand times better than Starbucks crap.
