Coffee:
http://www.coffeefool.com/
This link was mentioned to my by drmcboy, plus I had stumbled on it a couple times. Delicious. Over xmas I ordered the Kona which is fucking amazing, and the fire starter blend which is very good if you like dark subtle flavors (like stouts). I just opened the Australian today and it's yummy. I get giddy everytime I take a sip.
Tea:
I like black tea. I don't care for green and can't stand herbal. Most green tea tastes like grass, most herbal tea (apart from being non-caffinated) tastes like cat pee strained through a sweaty sock.
Barry's. The only thing people drink in Ireland:
http://www.barrystea.us/catalog/index.php
Stash. Based in Portland. The best bagged tea I've had.
Their white tea is easily the best white I've had (better for you than green).
http://www.stashtea.com/
Twinnings. More common in the midwest than stash. The 'Prince of Wales' is phenomenal.
http://www.twinings.com/
Also there is Boston Harbor by the Davidson Newmon company. It's the oldest tea company in Britain and the same company that made the tea that was thrown in boston harbor.

In Canada Timmy's is like a temple.
Get a coffee and watch the Hockey Game.
Its tradition.
So sorry if this came off as me being a jerk.
It wasnt meant to be.

Did you have it in Canada ??
Or was it in the States ??
Because no offense, but if they do to it what they do to our beer.
I can see why you think it sucks.

we ate at a fancy place last night and they had amazing coffee - I asked the guy and he said it was
http://www.douweegbertscoffeesystems.com/dg/outofhome/
it comes to them in what he described as a 'frozen juice box' then the brew system mixes it with exactly enough water per pot. It was easily the best coffee I have ever had.

If you like real traditional English tea (and remember I'm Australian) - there is no place better than Fortnum and Mason in London.

Posting this from Costa Rica, where the coffee is awesome and I can look out my hotel window at a field of coffee plants. If there was a field of weed growing next to it, I would truly be in heaven. But this is close enough.
