Spoiler warning! This page contains details about Fallen London Actions.

The place is expensive, and it gets crowded when the fog swirls thick and dank. But the coffee is startlingly good. Well, mainly startling.

  Success

  A stirring debate

  • Persuasive is increasing…
  •  You've gained 1-10 x Scrap of Incendiary Gossip

  Rare Success

  A drop of the good stuff

  Wiki note: Given this action's Rare Success chance of 1%, this is on average a net loss of 0.9 actions (assuming a 100% chance of success and valuing Darkdrop Coffee at +10 actions). Additionally, the locking of this card at 119 Persuasive makes it quite difficult, if not impossible, to succeed 100% without FATE or RETIRED items (see Stat-reducing items and Persuasive Items), further increasing the net action loss incurred by playing this action.
  This option is still better than most cards and storylets, but will not result in a net gain of actions as it might appear to. One advantage of Darkdrop Coffee, however, is that you do not need to use it immediately, allowing you to bank actions to redeem at a later time, even if it is a net loss of actions overall.
