    They cover the burnt flavour with a quart of sugar, syrups, and creams so you don’t even taste the coffee- Oh, wait second…

    No, at $4500 a cup, I’m sure it’s the best.

      It’s actually kinda the other way around. My uncle lived in Seattle for years, and he told me he ran into some Starbucks executive once. He asked about the burnt coffee, and they told him it was intentional so you could still taste “coffee” through all the sugar, syrups, and creams.
