Cafe au lait... Cafe latte... Cappuccino.

You're dissing some of the best.

Have a rum and coke for a good Cuba Libre.

I used to drink latte. Cappuccino and latte, until I learned how real good pure coffe should taste, and how to make coffe with different brewer techniques.

 

Now back on my Braun coffeemaker, and enjoy the difference  from my aeropress we used while travelling. 

 

Nothing is better than the smell of fresh grinded coffe in the morning.  

 

Never had the taste for rum or coca cola, or coca cola at all, and completely stopped drinking sugar drinks.

I got choices, and drip coffee is convenient and healthy

You must be a true connoisseur. Cant think of anything as generic as the taste of an espresso shot. 

 

Thailand’s coffee continues to improve. Their Arabica continue to improve. Taking advantage of that, brewed, press, cold or drip coffee has become fashionable in CM these days. A number of shops doing it. Nice to see. Flo coffee on Charoen Muang RD, east of the Ping, next to the famous salapao shop, is happening place. Sadly  tourists & pats have yet to find it. If in CM, well worth the effort to visit.

The arabica can really vary, I buy dark French roast  from 3 different sellers, all slightly different. In Pattaya the Haven used to do good filter drip coffee, most other coffees available were average

Used to see these in shops pretty often, have not seen one in a shop for years.

First I admit, always stock up on trips out of Thailand; Indonesian or Guatemalan, are favorites. 

Problems I do have with Thai coffee. Thais favor light, medium, or very dark roasts. I like dark roast but not an espresso roast. Secondly with all the different brands, different coffee farms packaging their own, It is tough wading through chaff to find something you like. As you said it can vary widely. believe I will start more online ordering, even though I would rather buy from shops, or ask Flo about a couple they sell. All that said, they're getting better

 

Hot season escape, just stop in a supermarket before you fly back.

I love the syphons, and yes I remember when they brought it to your table. A whole production. This up in Ban Nok Thailand long time gone. Today they want to move customers in & out. Get those sales. Likely too much training for staff to operate & costs, imagine they do break after awhile. Hillkoff up here sells them. I could see buying one, as it brings back positive memories, I want to reenforce.

If you like a french roast, less acidic than bog standard dark roast, this is good
