The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Cream Tea

Jam First then cream,
Scone not scone
Fulfill that elusive dream.

“Its not ideal” I often scream
But its something that people often moan
Jam first then cream

And yet to the heaven as they careen
To hear the folk who often drone
Fulfill that elusive dream

How people with their teas preen
And how the others should atone
Jam first then cream.

Surrender your Englishness become clean
You’ll never feel again alone
Fulfill that elusive dream.

You are perfect do whatever you mean
Scone not scone
Fulfill that elusive dream
But please remember, Jam first then cream.
