I'm sure that great tasting coffee exists, but it's a rather subjective proposition, IMHO. Something I think tastes great may not meet you expecations or vice versa.

Some people swear by Kopi Luwak, but I'm fine with Starbuck's Sumatra Dark Roast at home. Then again, I use local honey and half and half to flavor my coffee, which I'm sure a coffee purist would find to be repulsive.

Then, outside of the roast applied to the bean and its freshness, there is the vessel it's brewed in, the temperature of the water while it's being made, and of course the quality of the water itself. So many variables; so many different possible outcomes; so many individual tastes to suit to say without hesitation that a great tasting coffee exists according to your standards.
