Słaba kawa

Weak coffee

Coffee with low concentration.

🌍

문화적 배경

In the PRL era, coffee was a luxury. 'Słaba kawa' was often a result of economic hardship, but today it's a health choice. Poles visiting Italy often find Italian coffee too strong and might ask for an 'Americano', which they describe as 'słaba kawa'. The 'drip coffee' common in the US is often perceived by Poles as 'słaba kawa' compared to traditional Polish 'parzona'. Traditional Arabic coffee is served in small amounts but is very potent; a 'słaba kawa' would be unusual in that context.
