[TW] Bean-to-cup coffee – cama café (drip bag coffee 濾掛式咖啡)

The first time that I had cama coffee was an introduction from my mom few years ago. I first had their iced latte, which had a distinct smokey coffee flavors, and not too milky! I have the chance to sample their drip bag coffee, which I found that it is perfect way to brew a good cuppa at office or when you're traveling! 第一次接觸到cama咖啡是在幾年前，我媽媽買了一杯令人印象深刻的冰拿鐵。一般的冰拿鐵奶味都比較重，可是cama的卻是帶著炭香味，結合牛奶，卻不會膩！這次很高興有機會可以體驗cama通路限定的濾掛包！這次的濾掛包可是有通過國際咖啡權威IIAC評鑑認證的濾掛包呢！ *Giveaway at the end of the post! 文末有抽獎抽獎活動喲！
