'Tiz a well established fact that gentlemen drink tea, sip single malt, and smoke seegars. Well established, broadly accepted. There are, however, a select few scads, scoundrels, and scalawags who prefer coffee. For these certain few lowlifes, untouchables in some societies, here is an easier way to get good, tasty coffee. CAUTION: Since coffee lovers seem to be a picky, irrascable breed, these may not satisfy all coffee drinkers.
My late wife tried some now forgotten brand of coffee bags of camp coffee. Though the taste was decent, the brew time was nearly unacceptable. A 10 minute wait just doesn't hack it when you want a sip of coffee early in the morning. My lady friend, Carol, absolutely needs two cups of coffee in the morning before you even dare speak to her. In her home, a coffee pot does the trick. On the road, she uses coffee bags. These are "Senseo" brand, from Douwe Egberts company. THEY WORK, I gauw-rauwn-teee.
They are packaged in a foil bag, about 6" square, primarily brown with a white corner on the top right. Sixteen "pods" (what they call a coffee bag) cost $4.79. It comes in a wide selection of flavors: Kenya blend, Sumatra Blend, Brazil Blend, Colombian, Breakfast Blend,Dark roast, Decaffeinated, Cappuccino, Espresso, Vienna, and Paris.
These save having to carry a coffee pot, coffee press, & other extraneous brewing gear. Put a pod in a cup, add hot water. So simple that even a cave man can do it.
I wonder if cave men drank tea?
