RE: This week I had coffee from a different coffee roaster. 19 grams coffee from Germany! Autumn vibes in our house 🍂

Yeah, I noticed the texture, and I now see the reason for it...probably just some getting used to it and it could be a great buy.

Yes, we noticed the change in temperature too. The trees don't go that orange here, but yes, the leaves are turning yellow and falling now.
I miss living on the boat, and soon I will be away in Jamaica... but if all goes well I'll be back on a boat come Spring:)))

Have a lovely Sunday!

Living on a boat always sounded like a very unique experience. I’m sure you’ll be very happy in Jamaica too! After all the Blue mountain coffee is said to be one of the finest in the world. Maybe some Jamaican rum will be a great company! 😁
How do you prepare coffee in Jamaica? Maybe when you’re back you can share this in a post!

Yes, going to Jamaica is my number 1 priority, but definitely, it's amazing living on the boat.

Tea is the preferred and more popular beverage in the mornings in Jamaica. That's a remnant of the British I think.

The last time when we were visiting and my husband told my mum that he loves coffee, she was so pleased with herself and presented him with a jar of Instant Coffee when he arrived. 🤣
We had to go and purchase a basic old-fashioned coffee maker with filters. Ground coffee is actually expensive, so we get the High Mountain coffee instead of the one labeled Blue Mountain Coffee.

This time I'll take a Moka pot, and my mum already mentioned that the coffee maker we purchased last time should be somewhere in the house 🤣

We're hoping that we'll get the chance to visit Blue Mountain Peak, which would be fantastic!

I haven't been back in ages, so things could have changed.
When I left Jamaica in 2007, I gave up my dream of opening a coffee shop in Montego Bay, and chose to go studying and traveling instead.
... From what I heard the coffee culture was catching on in Kingston and other tourist towns... but in homes, I was never exposed to traditional way of making coffee or anything similar to what the Venezuelans do.

Opening a coffee place seems like a dream for a lot of people in this community… 😁

Hope you’ll have great time in Jamaica!

P.S. the instant coffee jar is a funny situation, but all of this is just an act of kindness of your mum!
