Does my coffee taste like coffee?

Tweet

I usually buy freshly roasted whole coffee beans that I grind to make my coffee. One thing that amused me is that coffee seems more complicated than just being coffee - every coffee beans brand or type I buy, has an elaborate description of its source and also the taste, aftertaste and mouthfeel. The writing keeps me entertained. At the end of the cup, to me it's coffee! I can never appreciate all those complex flavours and tastes in the description!! My present coffee has this description: "A creamy, buttery blend with delicate citrus notes that exhibits enchanting aromas of raisins & orange peel. It has a rich, smooth mouthfeel & a lingering aftertaste of chocolate." It's just good coffee, my friend!!
