If a accidentally bite into a coffe flavoured Quality Street or whatever I immediately spit it out Totally with you both. Anything coffee flavoured is bowf. Coffee is also fucking dreadful and makes someone's breath stink. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whisky equivalent would be the stuff you get in plastic sachets in countries like Ghana. You really don't need to spend much at all to be drinking the tea version of Lagavulin 16 each day. Night and day from the shite people regularly drown in milk and sugar. I would be interested in knowing what decent tea was. I don’t drink it at all. I do drink coffee, but I don’t ‘get it’, it doesn’t kick start my day - it serves as a vehicle for socialising or as a break from work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve not tried the Sambucca however no other banana flavoured items have been acceptable so I doubt this would float my boat. For confirmation, bananas are fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I would be interested in knowing what decent tea was. I don’t drink it at all.These are the three teas I'm currently quaffing. From top to bottom they are an oolong (da hong pao) a black (Yunnan golden needle) and a green (long jing).They're all very different and you get far more range in tea than you do coffee. Good quality tea has very little astringency or bitterness. You get very fragrant almost floral teas, deep malty teas and woody earthy teas like a ten year old pu'er. There's something for everyone and unlike having a nice range of good whisky at home, the tea equivalent can be achieved for very little money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I remember that episode. Did Pat Kane not snap back at her at one point that led to a pretty awkward silence? Must've been about five or six years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
