Thread: Spiced Tea vs Brandy?

I've just started out trying different food & drink, and have seen some of the inflated prices some chefs are charging for brandy (I personally have no problem with this).


I've seen some spiced tea which I'm sure you could eat more of as I think the filling was really low and the price was peanuts compared to how much I could get brandy for. So for regular hunting when I don't need to be uber uber uber buffed I was thinking of using this. The stuff I saw had virtually the same duration and I could eat 10 of them to buff my mind just over 500. Which is good enough for me as I was using fishak before and this gets me to the same level.


Am I missing anything since I rarely hear of anyone using tea.

Exactly right, I have several customers that use the tea instead of brandy for casual hunting.

My BE enhanced tea gives a total buff of +1178 mind if that's all you drink, and I sell it at about 40k/crate of small glasses. Much less expensive than the brandy, but it also disappears quickly. You have to take 14drinks to get the full +1178 buff as opposed to the 2 drinks of brandy.

Yea the problem with spiced tea is that you use up a lot more than brandy. A crate of brandy will last 3-4 times as long at least.


I made some and it hasn't sold that great. I have since given up the engineering line of Artison so I can't make it anymore with at least decent stats.

A crate of tea lasts a couple days. A crate of Brandy lasts at least a month.

Rather than spending 40k on a crate of tea it'd be a better buy to get four bottles of Brandy for the same price.
