I drink my coffee black also. Brew in a little coffemaker with regular coffee grounds. Used to use Folgers. One day a year or so ago was in WalMart in Brownwood, TX. grocery shopping and spied a brand I never saw or knew of...."Don Pedro"...Bought a can and I love it ! Can't find it in the grocery store in Comanche, or Hamilton, where I live midway in between, only in WallyWorld in Brownwood. Try a can and see if you don't agree.
