Coffee opinion
As a little light entertainment - I believe Canada was listed as the number one coffee consuming nation per head some time ago.
Just wondering what the ex-pat taste buds favour?

Re: Coffee opinion
The coffee here is just way too bitter for me. I didn't drink a huge amount in the UK but, no matter how hard I try, I just can't acquire the taste for it here.
The only way I can bear it, is to have virtually more "Coffee Mate" than coffee (preferabley the hazelnut one)

Re: Coffee opinion
I prefer Starbucks skinny latte but NO Starbucks here in the land of Tim Hortons. Had quite a few Timmys here, and drink far more coffee at home than I ever did in the UK. Even get cravings for it 
Can't stand the smell of coffee first thing in the morning and prefer to start my day with a huge mug of strong tea

Just posted this as coffee appears to be a national obsession/addiction in Canada.
As I type this my cup is running out and the espresso maker is calling.

Re: Coffee opinion
Earlier posts suggest that some people are able to get up, wash, dress and go out for breakfast coffee. I couldn't even contemplate going vertical before her indoors has brought me a steaming mug in bed.

Re: Coffee opinion
Gotta be Tims, and it has to be a medium double double. Even better if I win a "Roll Up The Rim" doughnut to go with it (a boston cream......Mmm) although the car would be nice to win as well !
