It tastes like you earned it.
Let me clarify the title. I'm in a men's workout group called F3. F3memphis.com if you're curious (it's free and you get a bad nickname). We do exercises pre-dawn in parks around the city. Calisthenics. CMUs for dirt-cheap weights. Running and Rucking. You get it. The workouts are usually 45 minutes, and I feel like I'm gonna die by the end most times. But a staple of the workout is that afterward, we share a word of wisdom and we gather for coffee that someone made at like 5AM and shared with the group. That is the best tasting coffee. It tastes amazing, fortified, bold, and after all the fuss leading up, you don't notice the bitter taste. No sugar or cream needed to taste good, because you earned that coffee.
Well, Onyx just tastes like that all the time. Even when you wake up late on a Saturday, and you set your Mr. Coffee to auto-brew in the morning with Onyx grounds put in there the night before. The first sip from your lazy weekend mug of choice tastes like that sunrise mug you sip from with drying sweat on your brow.
