    I personally find that tea tastes better usually than straight coffee. Can’t stand straight coffee and need to go to a coffee shop to get a flavor I’ll enjoy. But with tea, I can handle most teas I’ve tried without having to add anything that changes the flavor. I’ll take the leaf juice over the bean juice any day, when we’re talking no additional additives.

      Coffee that tastes good straight is generally expensive. I can make some straight green tea with good loose leaves for really cheap.

        Yeah, when you have some really great coffee, you’ll note that you still at enjoy it black when it has gone cold. And you do need to go to a roastery when you want to find that.

        Surprisingly, freshly roasted coffee isn’t that much more expensive than supermarket coffee where I live. 1kg of acceptably tasting fair trade coffee is 18€ in the supermarket, and there are many more expensive (but not better tasting) options. 1kg of a delicious blend at a local roastery is 24€.
