Desert Sun Coffee Roasters

I have literally never tasted worse coffee in my life. Are these beans even washed? Every cup I've had tastes like dirt, and it's nearly impossible to find a diner serving something else in town.

I’m not trying to be mean. I’m really not.

I have tried to like it - to develop a taste for it but if that's what is being served at work or at a bakery I go somewhere else for my coffee. One office that I visit frequently actually has that particular flavor on their coffee clubs list of coffees to please avoid as nobody but the cigarette smokers like it. Please take thi
