Honestly, from a time and price perspective, the best store beans we've found are Sam's Club Members Mark French Roast and Breakfast Blend beans which we mix evenly before grinding.
If you've never watched it, 'Dangerous Grounds' was a very entertaining and educational TV series that was showcased on I think either Nat Geo or Travel channel several years ago. The show follows coffee guru Todd Carmichael as he travels the world in search of the perfectly grown coffee bean. Not sure if it's streaming anywhere but worth a watch if you find it.

I did enjoy that show. And I ordered some of the fancy stuff offered at outrageous prices from La Colombe online while the show was on the air. It was fantastic!! Now it's mostly commercial grade. Bought a few bags for my mom for Christmas for my mom. They were way cheaper, but also tasted like normal coffe. Also now you can find their nitro canned mocha in grocery stores. I definitely recommend that.
Anyway, I go for whole bean. Starbucks tastes way to strong/gritty for me. I buy Dunkin Donuts brand. Don't judge until you've tried it!!
