I've heard of the chicory coffee, but I thought that was what they drank during the civil war when they could not get real coffee. Kind of like a coffee "extender" to make your good stuff last. Didn't know it was popular to drink it now.
Day to day coffee, grind my own 8 o'clock blend with the brown label.
When I have the extra $ to drink away, Costa Rican, Ethiopian, and Ivory coast coffee. All are Black. Cost about $12-$13/lb. at local stores.
And one time, you should find someone wealthy and talk THEM into getting a pound of Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee. Not some cheap stuff that only has 10-20% mixed in, but pure blue mountain. Will run between $38-$44 A POUND lol.
Yes, I am a coffee drinker lol.
