What is your choice of hot drink between the two? A cup of tea or a cup of coffee?

I used to be big on drinking tea including herbals which was relaxing while reading a book or looking up about subjects in the I.T field for me.

But coffee? I drink it in the morning ready for my day and work search, keeps me upright that caffeine stuff but I don't drink more than 2 cups due to caffeine contents.

I used to drink quite a lot of it in the workplace (Deadlines and projects tend to make you do that)

So what about you? Are you a tea enjoyer or a coffee enjoyer?

I like both quite a bit, and even got into the hobby culture for each.

Tea is simpler in preparation, but way more complex in terms of varieties. There is a huge difference between a chinese black tea and an assam black tea, even though its the same core ingredient, prepared in a similar fashion.

Coffee on the other hand has fewer varieties, but way more variables in preparation that can drastically change the flavor of your cup. The size of your grind, the brew temperature and the extraction time all have pretty major effects on thr end product.

Tea is simpler in preparation

Since I started drinking matcha, I disagree.
