I can tell you that coffee runs in my blood thanks to a transfusion. What is this like? Well, originally in my blood ran the delicate and subtle aroma of jasmine tea and the strong astringency of black tea. Genetically I have tea running through my veins, I am an Asian descendant with influences of English habits. No doubt one cannot deny one's roots but with the passing of time multiculturalism is part of some habits and my taste for coffee was born out of love.

I married a man of Italian descent. For them coffee is a very dear food as well as pasta. They like to drink it strong, because their culture is intense. At first it seemed too strong a drink for my tastes but through all these years of marriage I have tasted coffee in different combinations. Every cup of coffee I have with my husband is a love date.

Can we fall more in love with someone through coffee? I think so. My husband and I have become accomplices visiting coffee-shops varieties and always trying new species of beans. We have taken barista courses together to learn more about this beverage and believe it or not this has allowed us to get to know ourselves even better.

Long live love and coffee! 💕☕️

Sort:  

No doubt @chaodietas , that beautiful love in you as a couple will continue to grow and partly thanks to that good way to spend pleasant moments in the company of some good coffee drinks.
So as you say : Long live love and coffee !!!! 🎉🎉

So be it friend! 😃☕️

Fascinating story about coffee, love, life as a couple, and multiculturalism that you share with us dear @chaodietas; your comment makes me evoke memories about marriage, since I was married for 32 years with a wonderful woman whom I loved and love very much, which for 2 and a half years is in the subtle plane.

She and I were also accomplices in everything; as for coffee, inseparable, we always took it together at any time, she was a voracious reader, and I was an amateur in love with the art - craft of writing, because of the coffee we complemented each other, I talked to her about what I was writing, and she summarized the reading I was doing, how much I miss those moments. Thank you for sharing such a touching comment, which evoked in me nostalgic and beautiful feelings, receive in the distance my greetings and affection.☕🤗

On the contrary, thanks to you for sharing with us those magical moments between you and your wife over a cup of coffee. You have been blessed to have been able to find in this life someone so special to love and share several years by her side. Many people yearn for that and never achieve it. I understand when you say you miss those moments. I really can't imagine a cup of coffee without my husband when he leave this plane.

I send you a big hug from afar! ☕️

Thank you very much for your touching words, have a happy, aromatic and productive weekend, receive a big hug.🤗☕️

That's very true about the transfusion of some tastes that we have with our partners, hehe.

But when it comes to coffee my husband and I have always liked it, and we also love to discover places to have a coffee and talk, and I tell you that time flies in front of a cup of coffee and a good chat.

that time flies in front of a cup of coffee and a good chat.

This is wonderful in a couple. So it has been almost thirty years for me and I haven't even noticed it.

I'm glad that a cup of coffee is an impetus to spend long moments of conversation with your husband.

Oh your husband is Italian! You better never drink Cappuccino after lunch, or offer him one 😂

You're right! 🤣🤣🤣

What a beauty! love is always present and even more so with this aromatic beverage! obviously, you must have coffee in your bloodstream because of that great family tree.

Hehehe I don't think I adopted coffee, this drink took hold of me without me knowing it.

I like the way you describe coffee as a type of food and it really is! Food is everything that gives nutrients and energy to us and this is the exact case with coffee too! Italians do really have the traditions in special coffee espresso gear, but their coffee blends are not that good… don’t tell your husband that, please! 😁
I think Italians can become very sensitive on that topic.

It’s true that in Asia the tea culture comes first, but recently a really good types of coffee are quite common already, and coffee culture gradually reaches and blends into Asian daily routine.

You are right! You seem to have met several Italians 😄. You can count on me not to say anything about this comment because otherwise imagine "La Triviata" that I have to listen to.🤣🤣🤣

This is a consequence of globalization and it is good to try other things as delicious as coffee. Besides, the coffee industry is a multi-million dollar business and Asians cannot lose a piece of this cake.

Most definitely—long live coffee and love ❤️

So be it!

I always say that coffee is something that breaks frontiers and unites us under the same taste: the aroma and unique flavor of coffee.

It is a magical drink since it is always shared with friends or people we love. In Venezuela coffee is synonymous with family and friendship.

Nice...
Just like me, I wasn't into coffee untill I was tagged along by a friend and ever since then, I'll pick coffee in the presence of tea

This is one addictive drink! 😄
