Please don't ever stop stocking this strength coffee. Proper robust coffee for those, like me, who don't want it mellow, or a bit sweet, or with the roundness of a creamy taste. Perfect for strong, black, coffee. I'm sure it is also works well for those who take milk and sugar too.

Our household drinks an inordinate amount of coffee and have done so for many years. Love this particular brand for it's very satisfying taste and flavour. It is generally available at other retailers but Ethical are hard to beat on price and delivery.

This coffee, for us, is the best find in years and we were so disappointed when our previous suppliers could no longer source a regular supply then -- I found Ethical Superstore.com on an online search engine and bingo!! I now can order my coffee whenever the need arises, knowing that this supplier won't, hopefully, run out? Wonderful, speedy and well priced service -- thank you!!

It can be hard to find peanut butter that has no additives. Often when I do find such a product, it does not have a very nice consistency; it can be dry and hard to spread or just goopy with peanut oil. This peanut butter has a nice balance.

I agree with everything the previous reviewer wrote. We use this coffee all the time at our guest house, anything else fails to satisfy, with the possible exception of the Macchu Pichu, but more expensive, coffee. And, with the bulk purchase reduction, this coffee becomes reasonably priced...

If I ever try a cheaper alternative fairtrade coffee for my cafetiere at work I'm sorely disappointed. This is much smoother, and not bitter like the others. It's always worth the premium price, and buying in bulk makes good sense.
