I had no idea what to expect from this box, I thought mostly it was going to be snacks. I was wrong. It was way better than I thought it was going to be!
All the items come in this little drawstring bag.
La Carreta Espresso Coffee
La Carreta Restaurant has been serving Miami's most popular Cuban style coffee for over 40 years. This blend of specialty selected beans and precise roasting formula is a family owned secret recipe. I'm dying to try this! I love trying new coffee, so I have no doubt I'll love this!
Conchita Maria Cookies Dorada
These cookies are crisp and sweet and are perfect with coffee or tea! The cookies are coated with a light layer of oil just before baking, giving them their golden colour and rich, delicious taste. They're the type of cookies that we all love here, so they're going to go fast! There were a couple of strawberry candies in the box too, but I didn't manage to take a pic of them.
Cuban Coffee Espresso Maker
There are no instructions in the box on how to use this, except for a video link on how to make Cuban coffee but it doesn't show you how to use the coffee maker. I had to do some research on this, but found several helpful videos. I am really excited to give it a go since I've always wanted to try real Cuban coffee!
Cuban Espresso Cup & Saucer
How cute is this cup and saucer?! You're going to need an espresso cup for your coffee and both have the Cuban flag on them. I'm really glad they included this!
I am very impressed with Abuela Mami and loved this box! This was an excellent introductory box into Cuban culture! I am a coffee lover, so they couldn't have curated a better box! I am so happy they provided everything you need to experience coffee the Cuban way. I only wish the would've included detailed instructions for the coffee maker. It's a fantastic box overall, but I'd also like to see them bring down the shipping costs for international subscribers.
