Really tasty coffee. I’m not a coffee aficionado but the flavour in this coffee is really fantastic – rich and strong. Made the instant coffee I normally drink seem a bit insipid. Oh well. Guess I’ll have to ditch the instant although perhaps I’ll only keep this for people that I like and myself! Am looking forward to trying this in a bake too!
