Storage
Packed immediately after roasting. Once opened, roll the top of this pack down tightly and secure with a rubber band. Store in the freezer and use within two weeks.
Prepare & Use
A rounded dessert spoon of grounds per cup makes the perfect filter pot or cafetiere of coffee. If its too strong for your taste, just add a little hot water after brewing.
- If you're using a cafetiere, let the kettle come off the boil, then wet the grounds evenly with a little water before topping up. Give it 4 minutes, then plunge.
- To keep the flavours fresh, transfer brewed coffee to a thermos jug rather than leaving it on the hot plate.
- Make sure your coffee maker is clean as coffee oil build-up will taste stale.

Puny, I'm afraid
The taste and smell of this coffee was lovely, but it was terribly weak. So, if you're looking for a perk-you-up-in-the-morning coffee, this isn't it.

Some of the best coffee I have ever tasted
I dont normally review items - but as no-one has reviewed it, I felt I had to! I bought this coffee when it was on offer - sadly now it isnt, but I am still buying it. Use it in a stove top esspresso machine or cafetiere - its just amazing. Rich and rounded, but not acidic at all. Perfect

Delicious
Was tempted with this 'posh coffee' and have to say was well worth the plunge. Well balanced and full of flavour.
