ausi ski bum 1 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Wow I have developed a real liking for the Blendy coffee bags where you pop the bag on the top of your mug and you have your own mini dripilator. I bought heaps last year when I was in japan and this year as well bringing 12 packs of 10 back to Oz with me. Trouble is we have nothing like these and I really like blended coffee but making a single cup is a hassel. I like the Green and Brown packets (not so much the cream coloured ones) and would love to find a supplier of them that will post them or that distributes them here in Australia. Any ideas Link to post Share on other sites

ausi ski bum 1 Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 Nope Love um, Importing would be great if I had a distribution system in place, I just love the smell and taste of real coffee over instant and these things are a great comprimise. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 bit of wasteful packaging though. Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Nup - not trading in my commercial coffee machine for any drip bags - nah-uh! Nothing like a creamy latte to start the day, strong blacks to keep you on task, and yummy fluffy hot chocolate as a nightcap! Just a tip for the Aussie shopper - take a stroll down the coffee aisle at the supermarket and you will find coffee bags. They work the same way as a tea bag - and come in a few different brands.

That said, the mild Mon Cafe one is quite nice. The paper tent thing for holding the bag above the cup is also much better than the ones with little hooks that are supposed to catch on the lip. They can be quite temperamental. Link to post Share on other sites

BagOfCrisps 24 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 One thing I often think in Japan is the excessive packaging. As beautiful as it often is, they sure do pack things up. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 oh yes. Every pack of meat in its own bag and taped at the checkout. Sooooooo.... wasteful if you ask me. Link to post Share on other sites
