A Good Coffee
Trying a new coffee is tempting to experience a flavor that's not what we're used to; however, we're open to savoring other varieties that the market offers, especially those produced in our country. We constantly see different brands filling the windows of many businesses. These past few days at home, my husband had a visit from a friend, someone very close to the family; when he visits, he always brings something to show his gratitude—it's his custom.
On this occasion he brought us some coffee packets that I had never tried before and, although I had my own coffee, I decided, after a while of conversation, to try the new coffee and offer it to our guest.
There's always a moment when you have that expectation of tasting a new coffee. My first contact is with the aroma. If it spreads while it's being brewed and touches that nerve that stimulates my sense of smell and takes me back to those memories of when I lived in that little house where they brewed it with a bag, then for me, it's proof of a good coffee. And then I confirm it when I dare to taste it and the first sip slides through my mouth with a smooth texture that comforts me and awakens my senses. Then it's a coffee that will make my day.
And so it turned out to be a delicious coffee, once you get the timing and water ratio just right. You let it strain to give you an energy boost.
