For a guy who drank Nescafe Classic for most of his life, this Davidoff experience was a strong one.
When I first got this jar I thought I'd finish it in just a month or two, but here I am 3 to 4 months later, and I can probably make 4 to 5 more cups with the bits of coffee that I have left. 100 grams of coffee lasting more than 3 months is a win-win situation for me, but that's all thanks to Summer season and its hellish heat. During summer time I always cut down on my coffee and tea intake. Also, the recent price hikes aren't insignificant in any way, it's now a considerable factor, and because of it a lot of people have actually lowered their coffee intake.
Yet, even though it's not cheap, I still can't deny that I really enjoyed most of the cups of coffee I made at home, using the coffee granules of this Davidoff Espresso 57. Paired with any decent creamer, it's classic taste and combo. My lifelong Nescafe Classic experience surely wasn't as enjoyable, no matter what I tried.
Throughout the past few months I've tried countless methods of prepping some good coffee at home, and in the end the simplest method worked out the best.
I put a teaspoon of coffee, 3 teaspoons of cream, and half a teaspoon of sugar in a cup, then just add some hot water into it, and voila, you have yourself a decent cup of coffee in under 5 minutes.
Before discovering this eternal mystery of coffee and its simple ways, I tried different types of milk, different amounts of coffee, and even heated the coffee twice in different methods. And to be honest, most of it was a disastrous experience, an absolute waste of time lol.
Thus, sometimes simplicity is the answer.
And...
"sometimes simplicity can also be the toughest to master"
When you get the amount of ingredients just right and mix it well, the result is a good ole cup of coffee with a creamy top layer. To me it's just perfect.
Yet, I won't stop here, next time I plan on trying something a bit lighter from the Davidoff lineup. I've also asked around quite a lot, and it seems that I'm surrounded by people who prefer Nescafe; whether it be taste, range or price, they say Nescafe has it all. My Nescafe coffee experience hasn't been the best, but that's probably because I always kept the cheapest option in my home.
Nescafe's creamer however, it is the only Nescafe product that I've always preferred, because it is the cheapest option; yet, the quality is really good. But I think I'll also try the Nescafe Gold lineup somewhere along the line, just to see what the fuss is all about. It's the most common and fanciest option from the Nescafe coffee lineup available here.
However, whether it be Nescafe, Davidoff, or some fancy coffee beans, what I've realized in the past few months is that...
"the best type of coffee is the one that you like, and the type that you can afford."
It's as simple as that.
For the love of coffee. Cheers ☕️
Espresso 57 is my favorite coffee up until now. One jar usually lasts me a month, I mostly take two cups a day. And tbh, other variants of Davidoffs feel slight to me now, and I don't feel the same kick. I'm a junky in a way lol, and I've seen how my relative cringes their faces when I offer them coffee! 🤣
You can try making the froth first. Take two spoon of hot water, and your usual amount of sugar and coffee, then churn it using a electric whisk or analog, upto you. Do the same for milk on a separate pot and make it foamy. Then put the two together. Trust me, this way it tastes way better.
Also if you have french prech, you can put everything together, milk, coffee, sugar and then press it rapidly, exactly 20-25 times, it will be very very foamy, even way more than you can get from any coffee shops! 😅 I discovered this myself.
It's the same for me bhai, even my wife agrees. We're all junkies.😬
On it, I'll give this method a go ASAP. I'm always looking more newer and better ways to make a good cup of coffee at home. 🤔
I thought about getting a French press, but I haven't made the move yet. I think I'll have to look into it again. Anything for a good cup of coffee. ☕️
WoW, that coffee is very efficient, I have a friend who says that when it's hot, a good cup of hot coffee levels his body temperature.
It's actually quite strong, probably the strongest in their whole lineup, so you really don't need much for one single cup.
My idea is, when it's hot, you should just stay away from hot beverages haha. 😂
I have tried all the Nescafe ones and so far the Nescafe Gold was the best one. Btw I got some new stuff in hand, will show you guys soon. 😛😋
Trust me, this is much stronger than Nescafe gold 😀
I'll probably try it next, during winter time I guess.
I bet it's not coffee you're talking about. 🤔
coffee coffee, lots of them 😁
