Espresso 1865 blend has been handed down through the generations and is a closely guarded secret it is still artisan roasted fresh for our customers. The current owners were handed the recipe in an envelope with the shop keys when they bought the business! Never to reveal the recipe.
In many ways this coffee is the cornerstone of our business.
We have won a Great Taste 1 Star Award from the Guild of Fine Foods for our artisan roasted Espresso. The judges described the blend as being an “Interesting coffee. Forceful on the palate. This is deep and quite complex. Warm milk rounded it well. An undemanding drink that satisfies and offers an interesting mix of flavours. A clever blend.” Fine praise indeed!

We use our Espresso 1865 as our core drink, across all 6 cafes we operate, and numerous wholesale customers across the country.

We love coffee… and use an Italian Moka pot. Our Daughter lives between Penrith and Carlisle. We visted her over Christmas and she had bought us a packet of your fine ground 1845 Espresso. Would just like to let you know it is our absolute favourite coffee. Thank you, will treat ourselves to an online purchase ocassionally .. as we are in Warwickshire.
