Thread: OK what are we all ?

note to self - must get cream de coco....

I'm a 'Coffee Snob', won't drink Maxwell House or Folgers, only whole bean coffees, mostly Arabica beans and we try coffees from around the world picked up here-n-there. When I'm away from the house (office) I drink what they have (ugh!). About mid day I switch to tea, Earl Gray preferably. Of an evenin' I'll have a bourbon, most any kind with the exception of one or two, there is almost no 'bad' bourbon. Not every evening mind, just on weekends or when I feel I need to unwind a bit. Do enjoy the flavor. Bourbon, water, no ice.

Hmmmm? Never did acquire a tast for the 'froo-froo' drinks you women like. Usta, when I didn't really drink, but my wife did, try different things, normal drinks; Screwdriver, HarveyWallBanger, Whiskey Sour, etc. Never could get a taste for them, then I ran up on straight bourbon...the rest is history.

You are not going to believe this Whyemier when you said a bourbon I thought you meant a biscuit !!! lmao over in the UK we have a chocolate biscuit called bourbon !!!! lol Agree about the Arabica bean coffee its lovely and Earl Grey is nice to, so is English Breakfast tea thats my favourite ! So you are a straight Bourbon drinker..........I know lots of straight Whisky drinkers !! lol I am a Scottish person but I have to say I hate Whisky !! So what exactly is Bourbon ?
