I like coffee in the morning and tea in the afternoon.

However, every cup of tea I have ever bought in the USA has been poor
quality - for example, not made with boiling water. Also, it seems, made
with poor quality tea-bags. Admittedly, this is based on very limited
experience, but, on the whole, Americans don't like tea because they don't
make it right

Wondering if you've much time down South. I once ordered hot tea in
South Carolina, and the took their ubiquitous pitcher of iced tea,
poured a cup, and whapped it into the microwave!

I drink both coffee and tea. I seldom drink tea away from home except in
Asian eateries. I drink Earl Grey, Lichee, and Russian-type teas.

Tea at night. Coffee all the time.

We know this troll. He's been infesting rmc for a while.
The IP in the post's headers are a dead giveaway.

Love them both. I do coffee in the morning (used to do tea
exclusively in the morning but had to make a change), tea in the
afternoon; sometimes chai, sometimes black tea (Earl Grey or
Irish Breakfast are my favorites, but also use Darjeelings,
Russian Caravan, and others on occasion), sometimes green tea.
Variety I guess would characterize my use.

strangely, although I've aways been quite fussy about my coffee, I do
drink more tea than coffee - and here's the rub - I'm quite happy with
a cup of PG tips or Tetley.

I'm not sure if you get these brands in the US, but PG tips and Tetley
are big teabag manufacturers i.e. cheap, mass produced and charmless.
I actually don't like any of the specialist darjeeling and earl greys.
To each their own?

Spot on, fellow Englishman. :-)

I start each day with a cuppa tea made from said tea bags (I drink coffee at
all other times, but breakfast tea is a must) - and I find when I do
occasionally purchase loose leaf, green tea (normal tea to you and me) and
make in a pot or cafetiere...it tastes exactly the same as Tetley/Typhoo
bags. I've come to the conclusion that the difference in quality between
real coffee and instant or coffee bags is far, far more noticeable than the
difference between fresh tea and tea as you and I drink it.

We are English, along with the Indian's and other parts of Asia..we are the
master tea drinkers...and we all 'do' tea bags.....simply because they are
great.

"coffee bags"??

I prefer tea, and learned to like it early on, in my teens (now in my 50s).
Somewhere along the line I was introduced to fine coffee and really went whole
hog for it. At a point where I was drinking 4-5 strong cups in a morning, I
started to worry what this habit might be doing to me.

So, I'm back full-time with tea, and enjoying it more than ever.

Occasionally, I'll have an espresso drink at a coffee bar. I live in NYC and
am not pleased with the coffee offered at most places, even Italian-run
coffeehouses. When I visit the West Coast cities, I'm nearly always pleased
with the coffee there, and make a point of having some when I visit.
