It's a psychosomatic reaction due to an experience they had as a toddler. They also really hate the taste and smell of it generally. So they aren't really missing out.
Finally, someone consistent. It’s so weird that so many people love the smell of coffee despite hating the taste. I don’t get it but I’m on team “coffee love” but can respect someone who puts their all into not loving it
