Jenny is right, the water makes a difference.
absolutely right . i use mineral water for both coffee and tea and it does make a difference . i love coffee and drink too much of it but definitely not instant . i must say instant coffee to me is not coffee; it's " nescafé" , drinkable but definitely not tasting like coffee. ... lol .. just like Mousline (a brand of instant mashed potatoes) which is ok but doesn't taste like proper mashed potatoes and is now a dish in its own right over here . the worst of all is when you've made your own puree with the wrong brand of potatoes and get told your mousline is delicious ..... arghhhhhhh! ....... i usually buy ground coffee either from Kenya or New guinea but the choice of coffee depends on what coffee maker i use . Colombia suits my french press. With my italian moka coffee maker (the one you put on the stove with the water going up through the coffee) i use Segafredo Moka . with the electric coffe maker i have at the office I use L'OR absolu (absolute gold and it comes with a golden pack ... luxury ...) . i was told Nescafe doesn't taste the same in different countries . they adapt it to local tastes. and of course i like strong coffee , french or italian . drinking english or american coffee is torture (though i know you can find italian style coffee now in both countries) . .. lol .. that's why i stick to tea when i go to Britain ... i also drink tea (and have a cat) but not as much as coffee . it's usually my five o'clock drink . either strong english tea with milk or flavoured tea. there's a wonderful shop here called Mariage freres where you can find all kinds of teas from the world over and lots of flavours .784 çiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (oops . that was the cat walking across my table) AND i drink my coffe or tea without sugar (had to since i was told i had diabetes) . i found it was torturear first because i do have a sweet tooth but well i got used to it . the big problem is : you can't drink bad coffee without sugar .... there's nothing to hide the taste ! . dominique from Paris -- They say that women talk too much.
