Best coffees I have ever had, are in Portugal.

Delta is my favourite Brand - look for the name and logo at the awnings in front of cafés all over the country.

"Uma bica, por favor." gets you this nice espresso cup. Cost? from about 50 Euro cents.

** STAY AWAY from tourist trap areas and you get great food for low prices in the whole country.

@design_RG I am a coffee addict too! Have seen this coffee brand numerous time on a Friend's Insta feed who lives in Portugal! :D

@shibaprasad Delta is the Best. I remember having one particularly delicious one at a small café in Lisboa, near the Anjos (Angels) Metro station.

The owner operated the place, and when I commented on how good it was, he mentioned he only used the very best coffee - and pointed to the bags of Delta Gold label, which he said are their finest one.

20 Euros or 25 USD for a kilo, so it's not something I buy for regular use, but in Portugal you can have delicious coffee everywhere, for very reasonable costs.

I love the country!

@shibaprasad About two months per year, I would say. Travelled there on the Spring for the last 3 years, fell in love and really should do the big move, apply for Residency visa and live there full time.

Much happier when I am there, Europe is lovely.

Residency visa for Portugal is easy to apply for for retired people like myself, or entrepreneurs, just follow the requirements and you get it.

@shibaprasad There's a triving community of expats, digital nomads relocated in Lisbon from other higher cost European cities like Berlin, London, Paris.

And Lisbon is lovely, a small capital by European standards, nice climate and beside a gorgeous river.

Retired people and investors are flocking in too, some Brits sell their places and just drive there with a van load of stuff or a caravan/motor home to stay for good.

If they sold property at home country, they can repurchase, better prop for lower costs.

And enjoy the 3,000 hours of sunshine per year that the southern Algarve coast area gets. 😉 🍷
