RE: A different way to buy my coffee (ESP/ENG)
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
You are luckly to live in a country that produces coffee. I imagine that the coffee is more abundant and flavorful. Coffee at my local store in the US jumped yo over $10 a pound. My local store is expensive. A kilo is 0.453592 of a pound; So, coffee is about $4.50 a kilo. I guess that would be about 9.5 HIVE for a kilo.
I decided to give up coffee as part of the world's economic turmoil. To my surprise I haven't noticed any changes after the decision.
It is common for people in the US to drink drip coffee. This is where one pours water over the coffee then toss the beans. Some people are are switching to methods that extract more of the coffee flavor from the beans.
Wikipedia has a page on Venezuelian Coffee Production. It says that Venezuela was once a leading exporter of coffee, but that exports slowed after the rise of Chávez.
Some farmers say the reduction in production is due to government policies. The government says the problem is due to evil farmers who are hoarding coffee. Maybe you should go to the coffee growing region. You will probably find huge caves overflowing with all of the coffee the farmers are secretly hoarding.

Hello, thank you for your comment. Here coffee costs about 18 dollars a kilo, which makes it extremely expensive if you compare it with the income of most nationals here, however, I dare say that Venezuelans drink more coffee than water, so despite the cost we always look for ways to keep the habit.
