Well, I don't claim to be an expert, but to me it's always tasted like coffee.

It's not something you can describe, you have to taste it.

Nectar from the gods.

Ruu

Smelly feet.

It is an acquired taste. I remember my mam gave me a cup at my request when I was 15. Hated it. Only started to drink it when working 60 hour weeks. Force drank the first 3 or 4 espressos then was hooked.

life with no coffee is no life at all.

Have a coffee first thing every morning, but then it's tea, tea, tea, all the live-long day.

Try it OP, there's only one way to find out if you like it.

anything like those café noir biscuits as I really like them. is it worth trying a cup or should I keep away since I stayed away this long?

Depends on the type of coffee & how it's been made. Some coffee can taste nutty, some chocolatey, others fruity (not talking about frappuccinos!). The flavour can be blow your head off robust or delicately subtle. Huge number of varieties out there. Pretty much the only advice I can give you is don't drink instant - that tastes sh1te.

Arghus

Cocaine in your cup.

Try it and find out.

Bitter, or if in a styrofoam cup, like a D4 male shopping with his jumper off but held by the sleeves around his neck.

I don't drink coffee. Don't like the taste of it. I go for tea with some whipped cream or a dash unsweatened almond milk.

Like roasted cocoa beans, that have been blended... and then put in hot water to infuse.

I recently got tea in a hotel bar in Dublin. When I asked the barmaid for whipped cream, she looked at me as if I had 2 heads. She asked "where are you from" I said Meath, She said "Oh that explains it"

everlast75

I'd recommend that you don't drink tea and don't drink coffee.... but cover your chin in Yorkshire toffee...

entropi

The only way to know, is to try it yourself...it doesn't really have one particular food or drink to compare it with. If you sit and inhale the aroma, you can get a sense of what it's like.

Badly Drunk Boy

It tastes like it smells. Putrid.

"What do you have to lose?" Freedom, by the sound of a lot replies above! Coffee seems to enslave anyone who succumbs to it. They then use is as an excuse for not being able to do anything first thing in the morning, as well as it being almost some sort of fashion accessory.


Okay, in case you can't read between the lines, I'll tell it like it is: I'm not a fan of coffee.

Good coffee is delicious. I started out only being able to drink sweet lattes but now I like it strong.

Mmmmm. Where's me tea.

In fairness tea with whipped cream sounds bizarre

I had a coffee Cadburys Rose sweet about 25 years ago. Have never tasted the drink because of it!

I know someone who likes chocolate, but won't drink hot chocolate, eat chocolate cake, chocolate ice cream, chocolate sauce etc.

Same person loves coffee cake, coffee sweets, coffee ice cream, but can't stand coffee!

Mister Vain

I love the smell of coffee but it tastes horrible. Same with tea.

stoneill

You can keep your double latte mokey hokey pokeys - all coffee taste horrible

Coffee is lovely.

Coffee chocolates are rotten.

Menas

If I ever get admitted to hospital and have to have a blood transfusion they will have to find someone with 'blood type Java' to donate to me.

I love coffee. I drink a lot of coffee. I get headaches if I go 24 hours without coffee..
