Save or Waste

When it comes to coffee, I can both splurge and save. Now, what exactly do I mean by this? Well that depends on what we are talking about, what it is about, the circumstances.

When I started drinking coffee, I would drink any brand or artisan ground coffee. With time, my taste for coffee became more refined and let's say more demanding, thanks in part to my grandmother who would ask me when I was preparing coffee to add more quantity so that it would really have flavor.

By trying different brands and grinds I began to differentiate between smells and flavors and so I ended up becoming a consumer of a certain brand over others, by here I leave you a link in which I talk about my favorite brand to date, it is true that there are others that I can take when we do not get is in the nearest store, if it is very late or if we do not get our favorite.

I have compared prices when shopping and my favorite is one of the most expensive, of course there is a much more expensive one that is imported and I am told that it is very, very good, but really that one is too expensive for my taste and as I have also heard that it comes with certain flavors, I prefer to pass by and go for the safe, lest later I do not like it and feel that I wasted my money, but, as I mentioned my favorite is not the cheapest and is usually above the price of other brands.

Now if we talk about saving I do it or I try to do it, preparing coffee only twice a day in my case with one would be enough, but my husband is a serious thing and not to mention when he is doing mechanics with some neighbors, they take at least a jug or two it is true that they take turns and sometimes it is the turn of others, but I feel that at home the coffee does not last and that sometimes worries me a little, because of the current economy in my country.

I could also save when visiting a coffee shop, I like to visit new places and try their coffee and desserts, but when I see how expensive a small cup is I think that buying a bag of ground coffee that sometimes cost the same price or less I would prepare many cups at home, so sometimes I feel that I waste or squander when visiting them, but it is always nice to see new places.

The main reason why I want the coffee to yield is because as I mentioned the country's economy is not in its best moment or at least I have felt it affecting me a lot lately, so anything I can save is wonderful, but even wanting to save I decide to buy the coffee that although it is not the cheapest is that so far for me has better coffee flavor.

Finally, although it can be expensive I want to drink the coffee that my palate likes, maybe at least once a day, it is also nice to know a new coffee shop even if the visit is a little expensive, but in general all the experiences with coffee warm our soul, I say goodbye leaving my participation in the STB #79
