Coffee

[afuna]

So I had this tiny bar of coffee+cream (chocolate-based candy). And I actually liked it. This had led me I believe that I would like chocolate coffee (oops!) if only it were:

• sludgey/ thick instead of watery
  
• intensely strong with some sweet undertones through the bitterness instead of being blandly bitter and sweet
  
• not inclined to make me jittery/make me sleepy/too hyper to concentrate or whatever it is it tries to do to my nervous system
  

I just want it to taste the way it smells! And not mess me up! This is not too much to ask, is it?

You... don't like coffee? ;A;

[afuna]

No D: It is... it never tastes as good as it smells. It is FALSE ADVERTISING.

But good coffee tastes exactly the way it smells! HAVE SOME GOOD COFFEE.

I...I do not know where this creature you speak of exists. Maybe I should go find out?

Yesss. Though you most likely won't find it at Starbucks, where it does always smell heavenly but the coffee leaves a little something to be desired.

I think that is my problem. Hmm I only know of Gloria Jeans, UCC, and Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. I should look at one of those.

I'm only familiar with UCC's canned coffee, and I think I've only tried Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf once (apparently it didn't make a great impact). I definitely prefer Gloria Jeans over Starbucks, though.

Hmm. I think I know where my next coffee is coming from.

Apart from the jittery thing, Starbucks cafe mocha with the whipped cream on top is the closest to tasting like a candy bar to me...

[afuna]

Oh hmmmm. I should try that at some point, though maybe make it decaf or something less jitter-inducing.
