The phrase "good to the last drop" is actually a tagline for Maxwell House coffee. The company began using this tagline in 1915, but it is often incorrectly attributed to a US president or other public figure.
That being said, President Theodore Roosevelt was known to be a big coffee drinker, and he had his coffee prepared extremely strong. Some people have speculated that he may have used the phrase "good to the last drop" to describe his own coffee, but there is no concrete evidence to support this.

The U.S. President who coined the phrase "Good to the last drop," referring to coffee, was Theodore Roosevelt. The phrase was part of an advertising campaign for Maxwell House coffee, and legend has it that Roosevelt made the remark after drinking a cup of Maxwell House coffee at the Hermitage Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee in 1907. The story has become part of coffee lore, and the phrase "good to the last drop" is now closely associated with both Maxwell House coffee and President Roosevelt.
