I don't see the problem.  My favorite drink is root beer, but I
drink other things from time to time.  I'm sure Scrooge drinks
plenty of different things besides nutmeg tea.
Even if the story you're talking about said outright that
Scrooge *hates* nutmeg tea, that would only contradict the
Barks/Rosa continuum.  Scrooge's preference in beverages is
hardly as critical a story-fact as his #1 dime or the number of
Donald's nephews.  ;)

Is it possible the writers or translators for this story were
making a pun by having him drink "bark coffee," being a Barks
character?
