No Need To Try Anything Else

Several years ago I happened upon the coffee shop in Ybor City, looking for a simple cup of coffee. What I discovered was, simply, the only coffee I would drink from that point onward. It doesn't matter what kind of coffee you make - espresso, Americano, press - what you get is an excellent cup of coffee. I'm not sure why this isn't in your kitchen but it really should be. You won't be disappointed.

Since the first time I tasted this coffee 3 years ago, I have been unable to drink anything else! Don Carlos European Espresso is the most fragrant, flavorful, smoothest coffee I have EVER tasted. As someone who had to visit a certain national chain of coffee shops daily for lattes, etc., I thought I knew good espresso. I did not! This is the crown jewel of coffees and I have been ordering boxes of it from an Ybor storefront for the past 3 years. I now am having it shipped directly to me. It is so delicious, I love it so much!!!

This blend while it is promoted as European makes the best Cuban style coffee I have had. It has a very well balanced acidity with a hint of smoke. I found it a superior blend to the Navieras and Cafe Con Leche. I won't even bother comparing supermarket shelf coffee to this or any coffee blend found on the El Molino site. Store bought coffee is simply trash compared to any of these blends. I found this coffee specially pleasing in the afternoon around 2 pm when I am getting drowsy at work. I have an electric cafetera in my office and Don Carlos is my companion in the afternoon. Forget Starbucks, this blend is much superior and I haven't tried it in a pump espresso machine which would probably make this blend taste even better bringing out more of the coffee oil. It is heavy on the oil which makes it a bit more difficult when grinding the beans but not that bad. If I could only recommend one blend from El Molino it would be this one.

This coffee is rich and deep.
If you are looking for a true Caribbean espresso experience, try making Don Carlos in a cafetera. Add the generous helping of raw sugar and top your demitasse (don't mix) with some frothed, heated milk for that classic Cuban coffee experience. Sip the coffee through the milk. A piece of heaven from the tropics.
