Greetings coffee lovers, I hope you are doing well. A few days ago I received great news, which had me very excited and happy, because after a couple of years one of my friends returned to Venezuela, to share with his family and do some work things, and then leave again. I was able to meet him and spend a couple of hours talking and listening to what life is like outside Venezuela and each of the things you have to do, it is certainly something that sounds very interesting, but requires a lot of perseverance and dedication, since leaving a country in which you have lived all your life to emigrate to everything and start from scratch, no doubt are stages of life.
When I saw him I was very surprised and the best thing about it was that he brought me a small gift, very well kept and preserved, so that I could get my hands on it. This gift was a small package of Santo Domingo Coffee, since it is very consumed there, it is sold in many places and above all the cost is quite economical, so I was very excited to see how good was that coffee from the Dominican Republic.
This coffee Santo Domingo, has several presentations of size, being this that I swallow the smallest, certainly does not have the weight in the packaging, but it was only a few tablespoons of coffee, since the packaging was full and did not have so much air, where only yielded to do it once at home, since we are several who consume this great drink as delicious as it is coffee. A coffee that was harvested, processed and packaged by a large company in the Dominican Republic, in order to destroy it and trade it in many places, this being the first time I saw it and had a coffee of this brand in my hands.
The packaging is very simple, but it has a great design and a great combination of colors that allow it to be very striking from far away, since it is totally white, with some red, green and gold letters, and in that way to put together the design of the packaging. In addition, on the front it has the respective logo of the coffee brand in order to identify it and on the back there are some small recommendations on how to make that coffee, for the amount of coffee that comes with the package, being something very well elaborated.
Next, I uncovered it with great care, so that it would not vote and I put it in a plastic bag before using it, which comes completely ground and is a 100% pure coffee, where its color is very dark brown and it has a great smell at the moment of uncovering it, that typical smell of powdered coffee. So this Santo Domingo coffee was already passing the test and all that was missing was a great cup of coffee.
That same moment when I uncovered it I proceeded to prepare it in a pot in the traditional way, which adds a little water, all the coffee, since there were only a few tablespoons of coffee, sugar and let it boil over low heat, gradually began to boil and give off that smell of coffee, which lasts about 15 minutes to be ready coffee, no doubt we leave it a while longer to release all that coffee flavor.
Once it was ready my mom helped me to strain it in a cloth strainer, since it was a little hot and little by little it was straining, and then pour it in the coffee thermos and it was kept hot for a couple of hours, so we could serve it in the cups and drink it once more, due to the fact that only one thermos of that brand of coffee came out.
A coffee that was very rich and delicious and every cup of coffee that I had was enjoyed to the fullest, it was also served in the white cups of the house that are somewhat small and that's why I had two while writing this publication and checking my phone. A coffee that was at its peak with enough sugar and I wish I could see it in the supermarket here to buy it and in that way vary and try new brands of coffee, since the ones we buy at home are from Venezuela.
So coffee lovers friends, it was a great experience and a gift that I enjoyed very much and I thank my friend, where this brand of coffee passed the test and if you have the opportunity to try it and buy it I recommend it. I hope you liked this new coffee review.
