Hot take: I spent $80 on a coffee subscription that was just not for me

I got talked into a fancy coffee subscription six months ago. It was for a single origin, light roast from a roaster everyone online seemed to love. The first bag was okay, but it was super bright and acidic, which I'm not a huge fan of. I kept getting it, thinking my taste would change or I'd learn to like it, but I just never did. I was paying $20 every two weeks for coffee I had to force myself to drink. I finally canceled after four shipments, so that's $80 down the drain for coffee I didn't enjoy. I guess the lesson is to really know what flavor profile you like before you commit to a subscription. Has anyone else signed up for a service only to find the coffee just wasn't their style?

Twenty bucks every two weeks for bad coffee?

Ugh, that's basically paying for the sad feeling you get after drinking it.
