PartagasIV Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 I have gone through a couple kilos of Cubita and I have to say I wasn't that impressed...quite bitter as stated above, strong and sort of plain tasting. For the money I would rather have a couple pounds of great Sumatra. Would love to try some of the better brands, though...someday.

hoyopr Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Not sure about other places but the local LCDH in Vancouver sells the Serrano whole beans, love it and all we keep in the home. If the weather is nice in the morning I may enjoy at Trini Reyes with a large cup on the patio then.
Miami101 Posted July 5, 2008 Author Posted July 5, 2008 Thank folks for the information.... I just got online today after two of hard work, and a trip out to the Everglades Flamgo to go fishing.... I would love to get my hands on some real Cuban Coffee........Down here we drink Pilon and Cafe de Llave they are both O.K. if made the right way.....
Ken Gargett Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Serrano is MUCH, MUCH better than » Cubita. Cubita is very bitter. Serrano is strong, earthy and nutty. The » Turquino is a bit more refined, smokier, and perhaps less strong. Both » have very low acidity. i'm interested in this. next time, will also pick up some serrano though i have always prefered the cubanita. but i do like strong coffee.
smokum Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 It's a shame some long haired dude in Australia didn't have some premium Cuban coffee to sell.
