The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Coffee Makers

Long after the coffee pot
Calls the kettle black,
Eventually they will realize
They both serve the same purpose.
Just one begins slow and boils up fast,
While the other brews until it is filled
With the most bitter taste.
The coffee pot serving a roast
Darker than its host.
And the kettle instantly melting away 
All of the dryness of the ground beans.
