I used to bring coffee back from Costa Rica. Something about it just put me in a good mood like no other. I would pack old clothes that I could leave behind so I'd have as much room as possible in my suitcase. It was fun to go to the central market where they weigh it out and bag it up for you.
Otherwise I'm not a coffee snob, whatever brand is reasonable in the supermarket goes in my old Mister Coffee, like others said it 'gets me going' in the morning.
