    A lot of fancy stuff would not appeal to the average persons pallate. Its kinda like beer and coffee which I think some people like but many get used to. Anyway for the bulls 3rd victory my sister got dom perignon or whatever. everyone hated it but its dry which I guess is the fancy pallet appeal. although fancy pallet to me are folks that convince themselves they like it because they think it makes them better. the refined pallet.

    This is a personal question, different people have different taste. And it changes over time too. I can’t like anything that is tooth-shattering sweet but can appreciate bitter flavor now.

    My answer to this is always a Negroni. I cannot apprehend it, and I like cocktails. The Negroni is a cup of bitter sugar syrup and I cannot taste whatever it is that people like in it. It’s like someone drank Campari and said “not sweet enough” what the heck?

    Tequila, scotch, bourbon, all those I drink “lengthened” with some soda water to appreciate them and can taste the delicious flavors once they are diluted. Gin is good with tonic & lime. But the very strong, oversweet stirred drinks I don’t enjoy and Negroni is the most beloved of them.

    Saw several coffees mentioned and that got me wondering.

    I have had good cafe coffee once in my life. Most of the cafes make sugar nonsense. When I order black coffee, it’s a coin flip between burnt bitter mess and fucking battery acid.

    Now what are the chances that many people haven’t had a decent cup of black coffee?

    Energy drinks.

    Like okay, Monster Java to me is awesome to have once in a while. But, I’ve tried numerous energy drinks in the past and the flavors don’t always hit. I’m drinking some overly artificial liquid garbage and it’s telling me that it’s “Strawberry Aggression” on the can.

    If you tried just one energy drink or two just for variety, you’ve tried them all.

    I can’t get into sparkling water either.

    Typical British tea. I’m British and definitely an outlier but the typical black tea with milk and sugar is revolting to me. I love green, oolong, some black, yellow, white etc though.
