Coffee Bags

Like tea bags, but with coffee in them. Not on the level of the De'Longhi espresso I am now accustomed to at home, but a passable attempt at real coffee for the office. Certainly an improvement on instant, which is of course undrinkable. I have to remember to let the kettle cool a little after boiling though.

I haven't tried them, a. For a quick one in the morning I use those Rombouts one cup filters, they're quite handy.

I am not proud of myself, normally not one for such tawdry attempted humour.

I had never heard of them before today. They are from the Lyons coffee corporation (1904), not some popup hipster artisan craft coffee company.

I think I tried some Lyons coffee bags circa 2004. They were just about passable back then.
