Would you rather buy a specialty drink from Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks?

I go to school in LA, but live in the IE. Doesn't ring a bell, but I'd love to find it. I'm a scotch man as well - The MacAllan 18 is great stuff, but 12yo is fine for me.

Hell, I'm perfectly happy with some good chocolate and a Maker's Mark! Every try that? Get a Hershey's bar, and fill a tumbler with some Maker's Mark, neat. Take a tiny bite of the bar and chew it up. Swallow, then take a nice swig of the bourbon. You'll be in heaven!

 

While it's true, I'll NEVER admit it!

 

Yes, Macallan18 is good, but the 12 does me fine as well. Recently got a (small) bottle of johnny walker blue label -- great stuff. I'll try the markers & hershey. I enjoy the old shot of jack with a Bud chaser (when in the mood).

 

Wow - I'd love to try some blue. I did have a shot of a replica 1862 MacAllan (I think it was the year) and it was AMAZING.

 

Its pretty funny some of you guys whining about $4.00 coffee on a Ferrari website! And to actually go out of your way to not give the corporate giant your money... I am sure you've got them trembling!

 

So, I'm supposed to be content with a bad cup of coffee simply b/c it's easy? Please. And, this isn't about not buying into a corporate giant, it's about spending your money where you'd like to; isn't that the entire premise behind free market capitalism?

 

If you don't like the taste, thats another story. Although you would definately be in the minority considering they have a location on practically every corner.

 

I don't like the taste, and that in turn dimishes the value for what I pay for; hence, making the argument that their coffee is overpriced, over-hyped a no-brainer ( to me).

 

"Nibbles: It does irritate me when someone goes out of their way to stand in a 15 minute line for a Venti Decaf Caramel Mocha-Frappachino with Non-fat cream...."

Hear! Hear! When I see someone ordering a diet decaf Latte with non-fat milk, I think: what's the point???

It's like having sex with an inflatable doll - it just ain't like the real thing -

 

When my relatives came to visit from italy, we took them to starbucks. Their comment: Aqua Sporca (Dirty Water)

 

No, it's like *thinking* about having sex with an inflatable doll.....LOL

 

I love the people who get the nonfat, sugar free whatever, but explicitly request extra whipped cream.

 

LOL

 

Just reading this thread is making me start to "dialate". Never cared for Starbucks--to bitter.
