    But good is relative, since it’s a matter of personal taste.

    Well, i do think there’s a level of intelligence involved so that you can recognize something is good or bad despite your personal preferences. Like i can taste a high quality roast coffee with strong floral notes, and I just don’t like floral notes on my coffee it doesn’t sit right on my tongue, but i can still appreciate it’s a very high quality coffee and recommend it to my friend who loves those kinds of coffee.

    At the same time, i have a weakness for mcdonalds coffee black, it’s not good, it’s bad, but for some reason i drink it it reminds me of childhood and i feel good.

    And i dont think that’s a lot to ask of human intelligence, like you dont even need 100 IQ to just understand the concept that there are high quality and low quality coffees, but any individual can prefer the taste of any of them.
