Tea, coffee and your favourite cups

For example, there's only one glass that makes my decaf coffee taste good.

You know, that it isn't 100% free of caffeine? (At least it hasn't been in the 80's.)

I've drunk tea from one of those and it tasted very nice. It's interesting how a shape of a cup or glass affects the taste of drink.
For example, there's only one glass that makes my decaf coffee taste good. Whichever other cup I use, it tastes quite bad.

Hah! I wonder if it's some placebo effect, but you're definitely right.

Note the national statistics on the world's top coffee consumers. Despite my best efforts (my family background is half Finnish), and Starbucks's, the US doesn't even make the top ten.

For me, its a cup of strong dark roast in the morning. When I'm sick, it's a hot toddy with orange pekoe, whiskey, lemon and honey. By the camp fir, it's hot spiced cider with whiskey. Occasionally, I like mint tea after dinner (we grow or own mint). My favorite cup is a mug with Grumpy on it. I inherited it from my father-in-law. It couldn't have gone to a more deserving person.

Now I know why tea shops don't do very well here. At least it seems we drink Mate.

Coffee, double-double. Always fresh, always Tim Hortons.

I assume you're from the US? Coffee is a lot lot more popular in Spanish-speaking countries, I'd guess that's the reason.
