Cuban Coffee Recipe - Cafe Cubano

There are two methods to making coffee
the Cuban way: the traditional method using a metal stovetop
espresso pot, or with an electric espresso machine.
Coffee was brought to Cuba
in the mid 18th century but it would take 40 years
before it became a big part of the economy, by the early
1800's it became a bigger import than sugar.  So
far, I've come across only one website that sells real
coffee beans from Cuba.  The brand is "La Estrella
del Norte", its 100% Cuban Tortino Extra (Turquino)
whole beans grown in the shady jungles of the Sierra
Maestra Mountains of Eastern Cuba.
