I think I may be going slightly mad.
Yesterday I bought a shiny new jar of Douwe Egberts. On breaking the seal and lifting the lid in anticipation of the delightful rich aroma I closed my eyes, sniffed deeply and....nothing.
I took the jar back to the shop and, amidst much rolling of eyes, I was offered a replacement jar. I chose a tempting-looking jar of Gold Blend and could hardly wait to break the golden seal and sniff the aroma wafting out...on doing so, though, again-a disappointing nothing.
Two jars of coffee in one day. Smelling of nothing, apart from a vague dusty aroma of ashtray.
Is this me? Have I suddenly lost my taste buds? Or am I losing my mind?
