1925 Sanka Coffee Advertisement
As I commented, my father used to drink Sanka, and sometimes I did as well.
Frankly, it's awful.
A recent edition of one of the History channel shows on coffee in the US, I'd note, is well worth watching. American coffee came to be very mass produced, much like beer frankly, and like beer, it's really gone through a renaissance. It's much better now than it was, say twenty years ago.

There are a lot of good coffees out there, but sometimes I think that the recent focus on single-serve coffee machines has resulted in less focus on quality.
I really dislike single serve coffee machines. Of course, I drink a pot of coffee at home, every day, before I go to work. If I have to leave early and travel somewhere, I fill up a thermos and take it with me.
I like good coffee.
On the occasions, fortunately now less common than they were in the past, in which I have to stay at a hotel, I find myself making pod after pod of coffee from the diminutive single serve machine in the room. Not fun.
I'll note the first time I ever ran into one of those machines was in a law office in a location in which drinking coffee wasn't something that locals did. It was for visitors. They were so proud of it. I was baffled and never thought they'd take off.
