For those who take their coffee fast, dark and intense - espresso is the way to go. This espresso blend is a taste explosion of velvety textures with a smooth aftertaste. And, because Cafédirect are sticklers for every last detail, this blend delivers a little bit of froth on the top of each shot – known as the ‘crema’ – a sign of true quality. Ideal for use in filter and espresso machines.
About the Producer: This coffee is produced by Cafedirect, which is the largest fair trade organisation in the UK, and works with more than 30 different producer groups in South America, Central America, Africa and Asia.

The best coffee in the world?
Rated 4 out of 5 Submitted by
AndyR on 7th Apr 2009
Ethical Superstore staff review I always have a cup tea first thing every day, but by 7am I need a coffee and this is a near perfect coffee kick to get the day started. As an espresso blend it produces coffee which is thick, dark and rich. The grind is quite fine so you'll need to push hard if you're using a cafetiere to make it – nearly perfect for espresso machines though.

The best coffee i have found yet!
I only buy fairtrade coffee, it is important to me because I drink a lot of it!
I like my coffee strong and milky and I use an espresso machine. I find with this coffee I only need half the amount for a great cup. Therefore saving me half the money (and this coffee is A LOT cheaper than any other strength 5 coffee I have found) for the best quality.
You get that great 'coffee burst' when you open the bag and the roast is nearly black, which is ace!

Having just bought an espresso machine this coffee is perfect producing a great crema and full flavour. Great for latte too.

Q: Could you tell me is this product 60 per cent aramica and 40 per cent robusta coffee?
A: This product is 100% Arabica beans. Arabica beans are considered much higher quality than robusta beans.
