Rich, strong, not bitter and a completely different mouth feel. If you enjoy coffee for more than just go juice, I recommend that you try it.

Exactly. I cannot stand it when people claim burned beans equals strong coffee. All the caffeine and coffee oils are roasted out of them.

There is a reason people who actually TASTE the coffee 9as opposed to being impressed by the branding) call it “charbucks.”
You can't roast the caffeine out; caffeine content is a function of the beans used, not how much they were roasted. When I buy coffee, I look for the beans that appear moist in the hopper, then freeze them at home and grind right before use. I suppose some people might think dark roast has a "burned" flavor, but to me, it's the richest flavor. The coffee flavor just isn't as strong in medium roasts, and I don't drink light roasts. I make coffee *very* strong. And I love Starbucks. Coffee preferences are very much a matter of taste, and there is no "superior" style of preparing coffee.
