Coffee and changing tastes
I have a favorite coffee. It's called Mocha and I've only had it a few times a while back in England. I saw it by accident, simply because an acquaintance ordered it in front of me, and I was immediately: What is this?
This acquaintance of mine is not one of those people who will say: Hey, I'm drinking something nice here, try it too. But I'm curious and persistent. I ordered this Mocha, I changed my order, the bartender had already made me an espresso, but he said, No problem, we're canceling the order.
And so I ended up with this wonderful Mocha.
Which isn't really coffee, or at least not pure.
As I've written before, my tastes change a lot over time. Even when it comes to something I've been using for so many years. I cannot say that today I drink coffee the way I drank it 20 years ago, nor 10 years ago, nor even 5 years ago. Because my tastes just change. I don't know if it's because of age or something else.
For example, if I used to drink my coffee with milk, that's not the case anymore. I just can't stand the taste of milk anymore and café con leche is no longer an option. I remember the last café con leche I had exactly 4 years ago in Spain. I forced myself to finish it, that was the tipping point after which I never ordered that type of coffee again. Since then, I only drink espresso in restaurants and Turkish coffee or cezve coffee at home - brewed and boiled in water on the stove.
There is a coffee machine at home, but don't think I like the coffee from it, lol. I also used to drink coffee from a moka pod years ago that I mixed with milk, cinnamon and coconut oil, but that is no longer an option either.
Coffee aside, I discovered a few days ago that I no longer even eat duck meat, among other meats I don't eat. I also don't eat milk, as I said. It's as if over time I'm becoming more and more picky about food and more and more often I say: I don't eat this, I don't eat that. I really don't know what's wrong with me. Yes, I was fastidious as a child, but over the years I have always resented the bias of some people when they start flaunting their reluctance to eat one thing or another or whole food groups. Until I started becoming one myself.
So coffee mocha is with chocolate and steamed milk, at least now I see that this is so. How I liked that coffee back then, I don't know. The milk as a flavor just didn't take over the whole drink. I also don't like very sweet things and would rarely order chocolate or cocoa. But here, mixed with coffee it turns out to be a perfect combination for me. So no matter how my tastes change, there will always be a product I like. 😄

Soul's Detour is a project started by me years ago when I had a blog about historical and not so popular tourist destinations in Eastern Belgium, West Germany and Luxembourg. Nowadays, this blog no longer exists, but I'm still here - passionate about architecture, art and mysteries and eager to share my discoveries and point of view with you. |
Personally, I am a sensitive soul with a strong sense of justice.
Traveling and photography are my greatest passions.
Sounds trivial to you?
No, it's not trivial. Because I still love to travel to not so famous destinations.🗺️
Of course, the current situation does not allow me to do this, but I still find a way to satisfy my hunger for knowledge, new places, beauty and art.
Sometimes you can find the most amazing things even in the backyard of your house.😊🧐🧭|
Do the tastes change or you get bored of having too much of something? If that happens to me, I take a break.
I have always liked my coffee only one way since I was kid. It's pasta sauce that I keep changing every 2-3 years.

Valid point, I do get bored easily, things need to change more often in my life lol and about favorite food, I can only think of favorite fruits, but not cooked food that I've had all my life and would eat again.
But to be bored with something and become intolerable to the point of disgust of its taste or smell, I think that is more than boredom. That's why I blame the age 😂
