Starbucks try to base their coffee on what is drunk as espresso in Italy.

Unfortunately their employees with an overly romantic view of the old world don't realise the Italians have been in a race to the bottom in terms of price and quality for around 20 years.

Espresso is nice but usually takes the form of a thimbleful shot of coffee and not the American big gulp size. Might as well drink raw sewage at that point.
