Appreciation post: the barista at Java Joe's in Des Moines swapped my usual dark roast for a light Ethiopian pour over
I hit 3 years of drinking coffee every single morning and decided to celebrate at the shop down the street from my apartment. She handed me a cup that tasted like blueberries and I just stood there confused for a second. Now I'm wondering if I've been drinking the same thing out of habit for way too long, what got you out of your coffee rut?

Oh man, here's a thing nobody talks about: the cup itself can trick your brain. I drank the same mug every day for like two years and swore the coffee was getting worse. Turns out the mug had a weird coating wearing off and it was messing with the taste the whole time. Switched to a plain glass one and my normal roast suddenly tasted way better. So part of your rut might not even be the beans, it could be your whole setup at home holding the flavor back.
