I know quite a few people that dislike/hate the taste of coffee, so you're definitely not alone. I, on the other hand, LOVE it.

If you are curious, maybe try "fruity" light-roasted coffee, like Kenya or Ethiopia,, prepared in Hario drip or Chemex. You might be surprised, it tastes more like a tea. You can usually find it with fancy cafeterias, prepared by bearded baristas.

When I was in my late teens a slightly older friend said he wouldn't consider me an adult until I drank coffee and wine. Here I am, 38 years old, 2 kids - and I still don't drink coffee or wine (or tea even), so guess I'm not an adult yet. I'd kinda like to find a warm drink I could actually enjoy with others, but the only warm drink I like is hot chocolate - and even then just a cup and I'm good lol

I feel like people who hate coffee have probably never had good coffee. There is a huge difference with quality beans that are properly roasted, fresh and recently ground and properly prepared.

No, some of us hate everything about it. Maybe some that say they like the smell would like it, but I can tell you that I do not. I think it is either an acquired taste, or some genetic thing like cilantro tasting like soap.

The first time I had coffee (because it tasted bitter and horrible to me before), I was 22 and on a coffee farm in Kenya. The farmer brewed it fresh for me with two brown sugars (from his farm also) and I got off the ceiling about 2 hours later. Completely hooked. Got back to the U.K. and ordered an espresso from Starbucks and was basically diarrhoea water. Awful. So still don't drink it.

Agreed. Never enjoyed it. I get my caffeine fix in the morning from gamersupps since it's convenient and the only powdered energy drink that sweetens with erythritol.

It's more of an acquired taste. It takes some drinking before you start liking it and we mostly drink for the effect. That's why people put sugar, milk, and whatnot.
