    Robusta tastes like burnt rubber

    I will not accept this baseless slander! Vietnamese coffee (which is basically always robusta) mixed with sweetened condensed milk is the best coffee known to man and I will allow no different opinion.

      with sweetened condensed milk

      To be fair, it’s almost impossible to screw up condensed milk, it always tastes good.

      I’ve been to Vietnam several times, and their coffee is basically crack. I couldn’t stop drinking it.

      I’ve had a couple good roubustas, but it is a fickle breed to roast. If done wrong, even a medium roast will come out tasting like Folger’s. Moderately higher quality Folger’s due to the freshness, of course, but still Folger’s.
