Morning coffee and dreaming about Lisbon

✨"The wall in this specific Nespresso store looked like a fancy Tetris game to me. All these capsules on the walls were smaller than their original machines. The lovely girl who served us also let us try their Lisbon Bica capsule, which she presented as an authentic representation of Lisbon's espresso (called "bica" in Portuguese). Not only was it intense, but it also had a very rich but delightful taste which felt like a gentle touch of sunshine on a busy street in Lisbon." @boryanamtl

The DAK Alchemist coffee is unusual and a little bit mysterious. How does it compare to other anaerobic coffees?

✨"When I saw this box of beans I was instantly attracted. I like its beautifully simple design and also the use of recyclable materials both for the box and for the bag inside.
”Dak Coffee Roasters is based in charming Amsterdam, Netherlands and was founded by two Canadians from Montreal. We select beautiful and unique coffees, and carefully roast them to highlight the best flavours they have to offer.” @mdosev

Spoiling my family with coffee-based Gelatin

✨"I added the can of condensed milk to the cup and at the same time I added in similar portions a can of liquid milk, shook with a whisk to homogenize the mixture, then I added 4 tablespoons of vanilla and this point, I that this milk cream needed a special ingredient, it was liquid coffee because otherwise it would lose its main essence and so I could enliven its flavour when all the flavourings were integrated." @sidalim88

Delicious coffee, after a wonderful moment...

✨"We had breakfast and everything was delicious. To drink they mostly ordered natural fruit juices, but my youngest daughter who, like me, loves coffee, ordered 2 cappuccinos, one for her and one for me, without asking me if I wanted to drink that or another coffee." @tibilopez

Pool, beer and coffee

✨"I was able to feel the pleasure of combining my two favourite drinks and, as I have said many times before, this combination gives me a very comforting sensation that I cannot explain.
In my case, I ordered an espresso, while my wife ordered her favourite coffee: El Cortaito." @tonyes

Don Jesús Coffee Shop: Coffee, Nature and Good Energy!!! ☕✨

✨"When I arrived I loved the decoration, with warm colors and abundant vegetation, wooden chairs and tables, lots of lighting and a coffee aroma that I fell in love with. I sat at a table and was immediately approached by a very attentive girl with the menu, they have a wide range of coffees and after much thought I decided on a cappuccino. 😍" @marcelys1

A gift with coffee

✨"The most knowledgeable on the subject comment that it is a tradition in Vietnam that the coffee is strong and bitter prepared with a dark roast, so as soon as I had the box in my hand I thought I was going to enjoy the delicious beverage for sure." @indipnash91

Coffee with friend in a in a free time

✨"I love the frothy as the Moccacino, Cappucino and vanilla latte, but for now I can not enjoy it, because I am in a treatment where lactose is not a good option, because this time I ordered a spresso, which was served in a transparent cup, and an empecado sugar, which I barely used, here you can add small or large amounts." @wendyth16

☕ Traditional Short & Farmer At The Panetteria ☕

✨"The coffee is a beauty, both the cup and its content; the combination of colors and the art presented to us is fabulous, it also had a lot of foam and I love that. For those who think that a coffee with milk is just a coffee with milk, they are wrong; because from my point of view everything is in the art, in the preparation and how the presentation impacts the person who is going to enjoy it" @omarcitorojas

Review: IMI gourmet coffee

✨"I went with my husband to a store called Sofia, fly is not the name of my daughter 😅, there we found the surprise that they brought a very good coffee according to the girl who attended us, she knows that I am in search of new coffees, so without thinking much I told her give me one." @neilamarcano
