After traveling to Ireland and Australia in March, I've been at a loss where to find a proper cup of drip coffee. It seems to me that when I order a coffee (albeit in my Midwestern accent) I invariably got an Americano (or tall black in Oz) which, while good at times, usually tastes like hot water with a bit of espresso in it. I do really enjoy a cup of good drip or French press coffee and would love to hear an explanation of this phenomenon or some advice where I can find a proper cup overseas (outside of a Starbucks). I haven’t’ really had this problem in continental Europe, the coffee there is quite good.
