 My coffee has a bit of a grassy note today.

I've already finished drinking it. I had about 600-700 ml. On the downside, the calabash turned out to be not very convenient in terms of the amount of yerba it holds. It’s not visible here, but I put in 25 grams. To fill it to the brim and make it look nice, I would need to put in 35 grams, or even all 50. But that would exceed my usual caffeine intake. I might consider filling this gap with chamomile, mint, or fireweed in the future.

As for the taste, I drank regular Playadito from the yellow pack. The aroma was like tobacco, and the taste reminded me of a Russian sauna broom and lemongrass. Honestly, it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for 😅 I’ll try other brands, including different processing methods.
