Ah but he finished the coffee, right? It wasn't that bad then.

Once I visited my childhood home and the neighbors, who remembered me, invited me in for a cup of coffee. It was a nice gesture and a nice catchup, but I will forever remember that coffee as the worst coffee of my life. It was so acidic and burnt like anything I ever tasted. I typically have my coffee without sugar, and as soon as the neighbor saw me struggling with it she offered sugar and milk. It didn't help. I don't think I finished it.

Salt can really help the really bitter coffees. I'd recommend a few grains at a time.

If you have to add sugar to coffee or tea I believe you've made it wrong OR aren’t drinking good coffee or teas

I am so so sorry you went through that.
