I am Elias. I have a caffeine allergy, which means most coffee is off the table. Rather than give it up entirely, I allow myself one espresso shot per month — chosen deliberately, drunk slowly, and written about honestly.
This site is a record of those shots: where they happened, what I noticed, and what it means to turn a daily habit into a monthly ritual.
No grand claims. Just one cup, once a month.
