That "burned" taste is the result of a full city roast bean. Starbucks, to my knowledge, full city roasts their beans and it's become their signature. I learned this from a rep that sold and bought for Starbucks' major competitor. It's the most common comment made by those that are not fond of the Starbucks taste. It's just a matter of personal preference. The French press is a great way to enjoy a cup of coffee. Yes...coffee you can chew -- just the way I like it
