[QUOTE="SaskiaKC, post: 2229166, member: 487111"] I can well believe that. Like different chocolates, or different tobaccos. I am not a smoker, but back when there were tobacconists' shops in the malls I liked to go in occasionally and take a whiff from a couple of different humidors. I imagine that, unlike vanilla extract, tobaccos taste as good as they smell -- I just used to enjoy smelling them but never did more than 2-3 on one visit. Some time ago I read something online about the effects of various coffees on blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol numbers. I can't remember it all now, but I do remember the article mentioned arabica in contrast to some other coffee. It sent me out shopping for arabica coffee -- and I couldn't find any at my store! :( ??? About 15-20 years ago I worked in an office and part of my morning duties was to make the coffee in one of the kitchen. Decaf, "regular," and something wonderful called Cafe Sumatra. Wow! It was so strong, and so bitter ... I loved it. Problem was, I could only drink about 1/4 - 1/3 cup, and then it would have me literally climbing the walls -- way too much caffeine and who knows what else? But goodness, it was good. :) [/QUOTE]
