Loved sampling the different coffees. Very taken with the Sombra as a morning brew in a mocha pot. The Mountain Blend has rich flavours and seems slightly gentler. I think the Brixton will become a staple too for its rich, delicious flavours.

Having bought my first ever super espresso machine I wanted something to stretch its legs and my tastebuds but would be going in blind. This selection gave me plenty to experiment with and has possibly given me a standby roast while I try other blends. A great first purchase from Volcano whether your a newbie or the coffee snob I aspire to be 😜.
