Pocket Coffee

I have had a few goals along the way, not just sites and scenery but also culinary.  I had a run in with some snails which made me sick. Recall my post at the start of the cruise. The black pudding wasn't too bad.  The other three items on my list were tasted and tried except for one. The Belem custard tart was delicious. The cornish pastie (Oggly) was plentiful and tasty but the elusive Pocket Coffee was non existent.  This is meant to be an English specialty.  I checked numerous stores, super markets, specialty confectionary places.  I canvassed people in the street, store workers, demanded to see the manager. No one has even heard of it!  The airport here is dripping with chocolate. Every type and kind of choco treat is here, from Hershey to Cadbury and everyone else but there is no Pocket Coffee.
