So I went down a rabbit hole reading old threads here about low-acid coffee and I know the general consensus is that it's mostly marketing, that pH variation between coffees is tiny, and that "acidity" in coffee is really more of a taste/flavor thing than a stomach thing.

If acidity is such a fundamental part of what makes coffee taste like coffee, what happens when you strip it out? Does it taste flat? Weirdly smooth? Just… sad?

I don't have stomach issues or anything, just spotted a low-acid coffee on sale on iherb and now I'm tempted to try it purely out of curiosity. Before I pull the trigger, has anyone here actually tried one? How was it? Is it worth it (even with the discount!)?
