    In retrospect it seems odd that nobody cared how coffee tasted till like 1994.

        My dad and grandfather Maxwell House always. Folgers had Mrs Olson but with that accent she could have been Commie agent.

        When you take your morning coffee with a half-a-pack of Winstons or Virginia Slims it really doesn't matter all that much how it tastes.

        You mean when Jules compliments Jimmy on his coffee in Pulp Fiction. Nah. Lots of people have always cared.

        After my first taste of real Kona, I never paid for folgers again. That was in the late 80s.

        I had a family friend that would get his hands on a couple pounds of Jamaican Blue Peaberry once a year. Man, that was good stuff. same time frame.

        Not completely. Peet's Coffee opened in 1966 by Alfred Peet in Berkeley, California, "Peet's introduced the United States to its darker roasted Arabica coffee in blends including French Roast and grades appropriate for espresso drinks."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peet's_Coffee …

        And I remember a coffee shop on Charles Street in Boston in the late 80s that sold single origin beans. They weren't uncommon in yuppie areas by that time.
