I once got to "Ask Dr. Science", at a live event, why coffee always smells better than it tastes. He explained that coffee was never meant to be consumed as a drink, it was meant to be snorted through the nose. Only when modern civilization started drinking it did it get that reputation as having an acquired tasted, but a more appreciated aroma.
Thank you, Dr. Science.
