Rich, smooth and fresh

Fantastic coffee, generally roasted on the day it's ordered, delivered a day or 2 later, the most beautiful rich, fresh beans. Love just opening the bag and smelling them :) my go-to daily coffee!

Smooth!

Am relatively new to coffee and find this smooth, not bitter at all - just a delight.
