Review: Excellent, balanced, proper coffee - I bought this after reading some reviews, and was not disappointed. This is a great value, every day coffee, which is velvet smooth and leaves a nice, short lived after taste. Even the smell is great, so much better than instant rubbish, which i will likely never buy again. I would say it is a middle of the road strength coffee, not too strong, not too weak, ideal for your breakfast cuppa. Don't expect any particular additional flavours that you get with more specialised variants, just buy, brew and enjoy. The fact that it is 100% Arabica is also a bonus.
Review: Perfect start to a morning. Freshness assured. Lovely stuff. - Delicious. Roast quality is high. Perfect for espresso, moka pot, even filter at a push (not advised given the fine grind). Very fresh, assured with the ring-pull can. Nothing better than the hiss of a freshly opened one.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I ordered the espresso preparation coffee and was sent the filter coffee preparation variety instead. Can I still use this in my espresso machine?**
A: Hi the same thing happened to us...no don’t use it it clogged up my machine, if I hadn’t noticed it I think it would have broken it!

**Q: Should there be a plastic cap/lid because after opening via pull ring there isn't any means of securing tin other than putting into another container**
A: Yes, in my experience it should have screw on lid, the same silver coloured metal as the tin. Just as shown on the site page.

**Q: Is this coffee for cafetières and a travel French press?**
A: I use it in my batista. Its ground coffee?

**Q: Can I use this coffee  in the filter machine?**
A: You can, but it's a very fine grind.  You would be better advised to use the can with the filter machine picture bottom centre instead of this one which has the picture of an espresso cup.
It's the same coffee, just a slightly coarser grind
