" Pepper palace".... Hmmmm, sounds a lot like a place I went to in Gatlinburg that specialized in "Hot" sauces et al....Had a hot Horseradish that took my breath away...Was this coffee spiced with hot peppers ?

That's the place.

Not spices just MASSIVE amounts of Caffeine, Perfect for my Joe-Bailey's.

Do you really care about the teaspoon of coffee in your Baily's, WW? ;) ;)

Of course I do, it adds flavor.

Maybe it's like those chef on TV when they add stuff while saying "just a dash of" and a hand full goes in.

George, they have "Lively Up" at Amazon, I think in both k-cups and regular. Is it a strong coffee, my mother may like that. It's at a very reasonable price too.

Thanks....Yep, they have it now, but it is just as likely to go away next week, only to show up again months later...I stock up, but I don't like to get too much coffee since the "best by" dates on them are optimistic at best...

I'm not a coffee drinker. There, I said it but, that was true last week, now I am. I have found two coffees that I love. Green Mountain Caramel Vanilla Cream and Van Houtte Butterscotch Caramel. (Yes, I know, with cream and Stevia, they amount to little warm milkshakes!)

What is your favorite coffee? Flavored or unflavored? What brand?

Thanks for sharing.

Strong, plain, black for me. I grew up in a White/American Indian family where the granite enameled coffee pot went onto the stove at 4:00 a.m. with water and coffee grounds in it and just had water and coffee added as needed through most of the day. Grounds boiled right in the water. Cream and sugar go in desserts, not coffee.

Dunkin Doughnuts for me..... Grind the whole bean variety, never buy ground... Have a Keurig so my wife can brew a flavored coffee if she so desires (I don't like flavored coffees)... I only use cream, never sugar or any other sweetener. If I'm out and no half & half is available, I drink my coffee black.... I also have the little reusable pods for my Keurig, should I not want to brew a pot...

Another vote for Dunkin' Donuts original coffee with half & half or black, never any sugar. Nectar of the gods. Six to eight cups a day. I am in my 70's and tarted drinking coffee at eight years of age...typical in my childhood home. Never tried various pansy flavored coffees.

I spent 20 years in the Navy. Ergo, 7-Eleven is "gourmet" to me. We'd get our coffee out of a square 5lb. olive drab green can that said "COFFEE" on the side, along with a stock number to order more when we ran out.

I drink Yuban. You know why? Because it's coffee. It's not this raspberry-mocha-mint-creme-girlie-boy-foo-foo-bullshit coffee.

It's just coffee.

I used to drink it "regular" which, in New York, is with milk and two sugars. I drink it black now.

True story: November 1980 - I went to the Navy recruiter's office in Smithtown, NY. We're sitting there doing paperwork when the Chief Petty Officer asks me if I'd like a cup of coffee.

"Sure", I reply, and walk over to the big silver boiler pot. I grab a ceramic cup and fill it most of the way. I then look at the Chief and say "Where's the milk and sugar?"

Without missing a beat he responds: "Oh, they're in the Air Force recruiter's office down the hall".

I've taken my coffee black ever since...

Isn't any coffee considered "The Nectar Of The Overworked and Underpaid"? God's just wave a hand or a magic wand or something like that.
LOL.

I don't remember when I started drinking coffee and it coffee & chicory. Until he passed my dad always had a cup of coffee in front of him when he was home. When ever I'd ask him to help me with something he'd say "Let me finish my spot". His spot was his coffee. After I grew up and had my own children and they asked him to do something with them.... You probably guessed it, he'd have to finish his spot.

I remember years ago (many) when living in England that they had something called Camp Coffee (I think). It was liquid in a small jar and you mixed it with water. Now there was a drink....yuk!

Army coffee was a challenge. It usually was so bad that when a new recruit tried it, everyone looked to see how his response would affect him after the first gulp. I think it probably could take all the curl out of your hair. Some said it had saltpeter in it so it would keep the troops out of the "ladies of the evening" houses. Since not many drank it, the clap line continued to be about a block long on Mondays at the infirmary.

Down here in Kentucky, we call that "Hobo Coffee" or "Campfire Coffee".... :thumbup:
