Lavazza seems to get a lot of hate on coffee snob forums, but they make consistently decent coffee that's not burnt to ashes or weirdly acidic.

Coffee that isn’t acidic is realistically the weirder thing, considering what coffee is. Decades of bad coffee have created the expectation of every coffee having to taste like low-grade coffee with all the acidity burned out of it.

Taste is subjective and you can call them snobs but they have a great point. Even if you love burnt flavors, there are far more ethical options than Lavazza.

Coffee is acidic - it has acidity.
