Drink Talk There is hardly a spot inside of the tropic zone where tea or coffee cannot be grown, possibly barring the Sahara Desert. So it is natural to suppose that there are a hundred different qualities of teas and coffees. It is a matter of your personal taste as to what suits you best. In Japan the the natives, brew tea that Americans would not care to drink you would probably call it "vile stuff." The way to find tea or coffee that is just exactly what you like is to keep trying different brands until you find yours. Our understanding of the tea and cof fee situation has made it possible for us to select a number of grades that pretty nearly cover the whole scale of variation in taste. We can just about guarantee to give you the finest "cup" you ever tasted if you will sample a few of our brands.
