Tim Hortons is low-mid tier at best... Did you feel anything?

Frustrated that you marked it mid-tier. Tim Hortons is utter trash.

Have you talked to a Canadian in the past 15 years? Tim's is low tier. Perhaps the bottom. McDonald's coffee is even leagues ahead. Tim's changed their bean supplier years ago and I've heard McDonald's now uses it.

Kinda, what happened is Tim Hortons used to get their coffee from a supplier that would roast the beans for them, when they were bought out they switched to roasting their own beans which was cheaper.

When McDonald's entered the market they approached that same supplier and a blend was created for them, its not the same roast as Tim Hortons. But it is a premium roast vs Tim Hortons roasting on the cheap. Which is why Tim Hortons coffee got weaker. McDonald's coffee is more akin to what Tim Hortons used to be.
