I like lots of different regions. The real secret to "good" coffee, imo, is buying coffee that was roasted recently.
I'm not going to lie: I drink 8 O'Clock Bean on the regular. It's my goto production coffee to keep me up in the morning. It doesn't hold a candle to the stuff I get from a local roaster, though.
Coffee is experiencing a renaissance similar to the microbrew/microdistillery renaissance, though, and there is some amazing stuff out there. Cold brewing is really excellent with good beans as well.
I can tell you who makes some of the WORST coffee drinks, though. Starbucks. Their plain coffee is fine, but any of their espresso drinks are weak at best.
