You can actually find a decent brand in your supermarket. Look for Twinings brand. Twinings makes loose teas as well as bagged.

For a good, plain strong tea, try the English Breakfast blend.
Unlike Trudi, I enjoy Earl Gray.
But I have a mess of other flavors too.

Stay away from Bigelow brand! The stuff is rotgut.

Where's Gunnen? He's the tea connoisseur around here and he knows where to buy online.

Twinnings Irish Breakfast tea in the green box is best tea if you don't care for coffee but want a jumpstart from caffeine:

It's also very smooth and rich, to me as far as teas go. I'm not very fond of bergamot so i stay away from the earl grey

Ive had tea in loose and blooming form and ive had bigelow and twinings, there is no worlds of difference between them all. Its just about the flavors that is chosen. The only one that stood out for me most was tazo tea wild sweet orange it was good times.

Well I do like my coffee, but now and again I get on a tea kick. I wonder if I were to roll it and smoke it if there would be any more of a kick.

Americans were tea drinkers until that taxation without representation thing fucked everything up and we tossed that shit in the Da Nang delta and kicked Charlie's ass back to the stone age.
I understand that the coffee was just a horrid drink, the beans would be roasted on top of a wood stove and crushed and they tasted like shit, but we would rather drink shit than bow to the 3rd reich. In the civil war the soldiers would eat the beans with some hard tack and fat back because there was a lack of water in those days, but after Patton kicked Hitler's ass and we invaded Hawaii we got some Kona and Maui wowie beans and our coffee started to improve. Then Juan (exxon) Valdez escaped to South America with the hybrid bean formula and we have been forced to buy our tasty coffee beans ever since.
The tastiest coffee is supposed to be Civet coffee, where the beans are eaten by a cat they someone digs through the poop and makes coffee out of it. I just fed Scruffy a bag of coffee beans and I'm waiting for him to take a dump, the beans will be for sale later today to my friends.
The first batch will start at $20 per ounce, or I can just roll them in the litter box for $10 per ounce.

There is absolutely worlds of difference between brands and their blends. When you have to use two or more bags of tea to get the same strength and flavor from one bag of the same tea of a different brand, that is huge.

Twist - Rofl that's some funny shit you wrote. I won't be buying any catshit coffee though. Nowhere, nohow.

Now you got me in the mood for another cup.

You ever try the Chock Full 'O Nuts yet? What's your thoughts? That's the only 'regular' coffee I'll drink if my Brazilian blend isn't around.


RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - TenFour - 10-30-2013

meh chock is ok coffee, thats what they serve our troops ya know...
If i gots da money for me its gevalia hazelnut coffee, whole bean, fresh ground, with a shot of amaretto and a splash of bailey's


RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - twisteroo - 10-30-2013

I still have not tried the chock full o' nuts. I usually drink maxwell house or folgers, today I ground some doughnut shop blend beans from Aldi.

I would try the civet coffee if someone else bought it.

RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - twisteroo - 10-30-2013

We have a millionaire??

I actually saw an ad today for some place called the tea leaf, some snooty tea store. I might have to go sometime.


RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - BarEdul - 10-30-2013

I have an issue folks part of me getting healthy has come with a hefty price..so I have a coffession to make my tea and tea bags have to be gluten free and sulfite free. Gluten is basically wheat rye or barely. Sulfites are a pain in the ass as tons upon tons of things have them in them including tea bags are bleached with them. So now I am a huge pain in the ass lol
