Got anything new in your brew?
Did you make a mess-o of your espresso?
Did you French pull instead of French press?

It's my second week drinking that Four Sisters Donut Shop Blend from Grocery Outlet, and... It's okay...
It's not completely awful, and it's definitely functionally caffeinated, but without a paper filter it's bitter.
With a filter, it does have a sweetness and fruity acidity that's nice.
As if it's made as a filter coffee, which sounds weird, but I suppose it must be possible.
Speaking of paper filters, I started using a mesh filter in my aeropress, and... The result tastes very similar to my French press...
I got a pack of two mesh filters: One 250 microns, the other 200 microns, and the 200 micron filter doesn't let any fines through at all.
I am alternating days between the two, and I have to say the paper filter in the Aeropress makes a huge improvement in smoothness and taste.
