introduction:
Coffee is bitter
"I feel a burning sensation"
"I don't know why people like her."
These are all phrases we hear from people who aren't used to specialty coffee... or who may have tried a type that didn't suit their taste.
But the truth? There's smooth, sweet, and mild coffee that might change your mind completely.
This is a guide for anyone who doesn't love coffee ... but is willing to give it a chance.
1. Why do many people not like coffee?
- Try extra-roasted or commercial coffee.
- They drank it once on an empty stomach.
- They drank it without a balance between water and coffee.
- Or simply... they didn't taste the flavors that suited them.
