Okay, this has got to stop. This craze of nasty, sour, acidic coffee is ridiculous. I don’t like this phrase, as I’ve never tasted it, but I have to imagine it tastes like $#!+.

I discussed my purchase beforehand with the waiter, so I knew what I was getting into. But given this was voted #1 in Europe, I figured it was worth a shot.

It was not worth a shot – or the two shots – of espresso used to make my Americano. It was absolutely revolting.

I also discussed it with the waiter after, when he observed I had a nearly full cup of coffee after almost twenty minutes had elapsed. He said “it’s a new way to enjoy coffee.” I said “‘Enjoy’ is not a word I would use to describe this experience.”

Please, can we go back to good coffee now and stop f**king it up trying to make it “better?”
