I dont know much about coffee but I stopped drinking alcohol lately and I was afraid of missing the taste part of drinking (the nice taste of a good whine or beer). Coffee doesn’t have the same depth - or at least I didn’t explore it yet. Then I discovered tea and all its variety. Tea have been around for thousand of years, which means there’s a lot of variety and different process per regions. There’s even tea you can age, with millesime, for extra-fancy.
It’s just that teabags just aren’t good. They crush the whole tea plant using machines. Kinda like instant coffee just isn’t that good most of the time.
I don’t really drink, but my family loves a little bit of a drink. When my partner and I go for dinner at my parents now my Mum always has some non-alcoholic wine/champagne/cooler for me and it’s nice for when I want a flavoured drink that’s cold and isn’t soda water or really sweet. She also had been liking it for nights with friends where she still wants the taste of another glass of wine, but not more alcohol.
But also, a total tea snob who agrees with you on tea bags being terrible.
