[QUOTE="MisterE, post: 207724, member: 820"] I got curious about what coffee from Cuba is like. Some of the actual Cuban-produced coffee is quite different from what we get. From the article: [i]Cuba had long mixed coffee with roasted peas to stretch supplies after coffee production slumped, and then collapsed, following the 1959 revolution. The brew is less potent and more bitter than pure coffee, which Cubans tend to drink with lots of sugar. "It's got a thin, sharp taste. I never liked it," said Isa Morena, a guesthouse owner in Havana. "It didn't help that we had no choice. It was that or nothing."[/i] [url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/may/06/cuba-coffee-peas]http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/may/06/cuba-coffee-peas[/url] After watching the video I want to make some Cuban [i]style[/i] coffee with Panamanian or Mexican produced coffee I have here. Looks tasty! [/QUOTE]
