If you drink medium/plus beans, read on. If you drink blends as opposed to SO beans, read on. I have known TC for quite a few years, and over the past few months I have been back on their stuff. Their strongest blend, is called Rocket Fuel @ £20 per kilo. I found it just about very good though for everyday stuff

However, I have been subscribing to their 3 month pack which gives you a discount, a gift and free postage. This month is Jingling Geordie and it is one of the nicest blends personally, I have ever had. All I need is for the right person like @Rob666 to buy something and agree with me! Warning, the beans simply have a Best Before date 12 months ahead. They do not sell any SO coffee, so if you can put up with that, please try them!

This is the Jingling Geordie. rocket Fuel is a shade or two darker!

Rob666 I just finished my kilo yesterday. I have had it many times before, but not part of a sub package. It certainly takes after it’s name Rob! I hope that you enjoy it!

dfk41 I hope so too! I’ll let you know.

As promised. We are now a few days into the Rocket Fuel. Not as dark as I was expecting and the first couple of shots were a bit disappointing. Maybe opened too soon? Now it’s doing it for all of us! Not the most complex but a very satisfying gloopy mouthfeel and works really well with milk. Sarah, (my other half) had been threatening to give up drinking coffee after a bag of Rwandan that promised caramel and chocolate among other notes and turned out to be fruity and floral. Sarah is now back on track and there is a howl of “Coffee!” at around 11:00 every day. :)

Rob666 i should have mentioned the fact that it definitely improves the longer you store it! I do not freeze or vacuum pack it, once the bag is open. Glad it turned out ok Rob!
