Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted August 29, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 29, 2018 I don't tend to have it in summer but when I'm on my Friday jaunt to the cinema, I usually have one before the film. I was fuming when Costa didn't do the white chocolate one last Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mal the Glorious Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I'm drinking a cup of tea right now and I can't smell it. I've never, ever heard someone mention the odour of tea, that's baffling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 30, 2018 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2018 It obviously does have a smell. I get annoyed at people telling me cucumber doesn't have a smell or taste (but at least I've bloody tried it!). The smell of tea is so innocuous compared to coffee, they don't deserve to be in the same category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted August 30, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 There's also fruit and mint teas, which smell delightful. Unless you're Astro who presumably thinks they smell like a chemical toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undefeated Steak Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Tea doesn't smell but you can smell the difference between a brew with sugar in it and one without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted August 30, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted August 30, 2018 Weirdly it has never occurred to me before this discussion that tea has no smell. I can lift the mug right to my face and still wouldn't be able to identify it in a blind test. I drink tea like mad. I would estimate that close to half of all the liquid I have consumed in my lifetime has been in the form of a cuppa. Coffee is good too. Never drinking, or even having tried either of them is mental. I think I was on tea as soon as I'd learned to hold a proper cup in my hand.

They're not comparable. Tea is a heart warming relaxing hug in a mug of a drink, while coffee is a bitter smelly soup for masochists too scared to do cocaine. Truth. I just associate coffee with creating that 20 minute muck metabolism that makes you need to have a shit when you're already about to go out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 30, 2018 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2018 I love the smell of coffee but hate the taste and the feeling you get after drinking it, and how it makes a person stink. As such I love coffee flavoured things, like chocolates or a tiramisu. (Yes, I'm aware there's real coffee in these things but it's mixed with other ingredients).
