Freshly roasted John Watt 1865 is our original house coffee blend which we have roasted nearly every day since we opened in 1865. This understated blend generates amazing feedback for this blend a secret recipe which we keep very close to our chests.
John Watt 1865 blend is a medium roast coffee that is best in a Cafetiere or a filter, but please don’t let us dictate how you drink our coffee its enjoyable at all times of the day.
In fact if you walk into our café in Bank Street, Carlisle and ask for “just a coffee” this is what you will get! A smooth blend with a medium body and a nutty aftertaste this coffee is perfect for drinking all day and every day because we can be sure this coffee is always freshly roasted.

We only roast this coffee early in the morning because otherwise we smoke our neighbours out! We have been told that this roast produces “The best smell in Carlisle”! If you enjoy strong coffee we recommend this one for you, it is not for the faint hearted!

A great all day coffee. I still order it now, even though I live in Epsom.

This blend and grind remains the best I’ve discovered in 40 years of coffee drinking. I used to roast my own, but in recent years as decent coffee has become more available I have bought ready-roasted and ground the beans myself – mainly Kenyan Peaberry, Brazilian, Columbian. I’m using some single estate self-ground Kenyan at present – having run out of 1865 – but I still rate your 1865 blend better.

It is a few months since I last ordered, but that indicates only that during lock-down I have felt obliged to use up some other beans I’ve had in stock for a while but previously put to one side in favour of yours. Having done my duty, I’m looking forward to having 1865 – quite simply the best coffee I’ve tasted
