Most coffee today is such godawful swill, you really need milk. Even the mid brand espresso my region specializes in hawking has taken a hit in quality these past several years. You used to be able to drink them black, now they're rancid. I don't know what's going on in that factory. Red is the new black.

I always try to one up our native brands they sell for Hispanics here; but ultimately even quadruple price increased coffee ends up tasting worse than it, even foreign imports. I'm up against a brick wall here, you're lucky. Might actually have to end up visiting luxury coffee shops instead of being lazy.

It is has been a very warm October. Today it is cold and raining and there is a cold breeze coming in my window. It feels so good.

Tareta no cap
