In reply to the discussion: What rare and expensive foods have you tried? How are they? [View all]Cuthbert Allgood
(4,917 posts)24. I'm more in you chocolate comment below.
I don't now that expensive always means better in coffee, but what I don't like about coffees like Foldgers is that they blend so much that all individual notes of the coffee are lost. I love African coffees--especially Ethiopian and Kenyan. The bright, acidic, floral/citrus notes are just great. You can't get that with a general coffee (or Starbucks because I feel the roast too dark to make it more uniform).
But I don't get wine at all, so I'm not one to talk.

Most of the stuff you see labeled as Jamaican Blue is a blend with a low percentage

Most expensive food and wines are, but I commented similarly on the coffee upstream
