Apparently starbucks thought they wouldn't have any competition in Australia. Unfortunately for the management, all the capital cities and many of the regional areas have a thriving cafe society so not only are there quite a few large chain and franchise stores, there are hundreds and hundreds of cafes and small restaraunts that sell better coffee than you'll get at any starbucks (IMO), and far cheaper too.

I can't tell the difference between the smell of coffee and the smell of a skunk.

Seriously.

WOW! I'm normally lambasted for not thinking coffee is a requirement for a normal life.

Interesting Hung. I actually love the smell of fresh brewed coffee just don't make me taste it. Now don't tell me you have NO sense of smell?

My brother-in-law has no sense of smell. He met me a tool store and the proprietor asked him if he smelled a skunk. Turns out my BIL's dog just got blasted and he didn't know he'd gotten any on his coat. Couldn't smell it.

Good coffee doesn't smell like skunk. Bad coffee does.
