“We” don’t. I fucking love it. If I could drink significantly more without disrupting sleep, I would.
Your body adapts to bitterness. But most importantly, there’s a difference between buying good coffee, grinding and preparing it how you like it, versus buying 8 month old burnt pieces of leaves and some coffee from Walmart and shoving sugar with vegetable oil on top.
It doesn’t even need to be expensive or special coffee - just give slightly more mental effort to a drink you consume everyday.

Less than a year ago I drank tea exclusively.
I started with ground Dunkin’ Donuts Original because that’s what my wife drank. I didn’t like it, but if I added Torani syrup to it, it was actually pretty good. It became my morning coffee.
Then, still with ground coffee, my wife said she liked Krispy Kreme coffee better but they don’t sell it in stores. I found it on Amazon and it was indeed better.
Then, I was like, “Well…we have a grinder…let’s use it.” So, I bought Dunkin’ Donuts Original whole bean at the store. It tasted significantly better than Krispy Kreme! Even my wife agreed. I could tell grinding the beans at home was a game changer.
Then I went to Hawaii. For a week straight, I drank pretty crappy coffee with a bit of cream. It gave me that bitter flavor that I’d come to love, but it wasn’t satisfying in the way that I knew coffee could be. I guess was preparing myself for heaven by going through hell? Idk. But we found a coffee in Kona that is so good I can make a whole pot and drink it black. When I first tasted it at home, I understood in my bones why people enjoy a morning cup of coffee.
So yeah, huge difference between buying good coffee and preparing it how you like it versus that other crap.

I found an independent coffee shop that roasts beans in small batches there in the store. Even if all you’re gonna do is drip, that alone is enough.
But pour over hits the balance between amazing and convenient
Amusingly, their cappuccinos cost less than at Starbucks…
Likewise, I like it. I had to cut out all caffeine so I don’t get to drink it much now, but I’ll make a decaf every now and then.
I miss coffee.
