A thoughtful conversation at an outdoor coffee table. |
This post is now like a vintage gem, from December 2012. Ah! Today, painting our old café chronicles with nostalgia! By the way, curious about 'Country Roads'? Play the SoundCloud widget just above to uncover the artist behind this beautiful music. As you sip your coffee there, and I drink mine here, imagine the whispers of laughter and tales that have danced around that Moka coffee maker in the photo! I'm sure you also have stories like that one always listening to some good music - so rare, nowadays, isn't it? Now I turned them into a relic of the past not so distant, yet.
Gather 'round, for a delightful journey through the pleasure that the café provides us. We see here my friend Nando and his, Felipe França, an Italian Moka well-poised, and just below, Rodrigo, immersed in a world of the tea wonders. Those were an extract of our meetings with coffee! At this coffee shop that I owned until the arrival of the pandemic, we served several tea flavors, for tea lovers, like the Chai - a sip of India's s flavors, while also, as supposed, several different preparations of latte art.
Now, we dive into the part of the cream, where only good memories remain... That old Italian Moka pictured, a creation of the early 1800s, stands as a testament to timeless ingenuity, lost in these actual days. It functions without filters, making it not only a coffee aficionado's dream but also a budget-saver. Fun Fact: It's "espresso" with an 's', paying homage to the Italian art of "extraction under pressure", rather than a hurried "express" means in English.
Feeling the caffeine buzz yet? So now meet the FRENCH PRESS! We journeyed through different brewing methods, and we invite you now to savor not just the taste but the essence of living the coffee culture... Perfect baristas!
I thank God and all of you who made part of this adventure that was, being friends! Do like we did, keep drinking around, find new friends, respect all, and always improve like human beings, building new stories, just as we did, fellow enthusiasts!
