The “Espresso Explorer Coffee Starter Kit” is your gateway to the exquisite world of espresso, meticulously crafted for budding enthusiasts and seasoned connoisseurs alike.

Loved by many of our professionals, this kit features two distinct blends, Espresso Grin and Espresso Smile, each selected to offer a unique perspective on the rich tapestry of coffee flavours. Espresso Grin is medium roasted for a rich, earthy mouthfeel and punchy coffee experience with notes that echo the traditional Italian espresso, while Espresso Smile offers a lighter, more nuanced profile with hints of chocolate, toasted almonds and fruit which just dance across the tongue.

For those who love cafetière, pour over, or drip brew, as with all Christopher Montrose Coffee, they deliver an equally delicious experience.

I ordered the Swiss decaf from Christopher Montrose Coffee and it did not disappoint. It is robust and strong with a smooth finish, unlike many other decafs that I’ve tasted. The ordering and delivery was seamless too. It has definitely become my absolute fave.

Great tasting coffee at a great price. A nice variety of flavours available and a nice decaf option too. Definitely worth a try - freshly roasted coffee beans are so different to supermarket bags that were roasted months ago.

Christopher Montrose coffee really does make you smile.. although I’m not an avid coffee drinker it’s always my first choice when I do decide to have a cup, weather it’s black, a latte or iced it always hits the spot with how uniquely delicious it is. I could not recommend trying the coffee enough.

I've been enjoying Christopher Montrose Coffee since they launched and am now a big fan. For many years I bought my coffee from Monmouth in Borough Market, but no more... I have a new favourite. I'm particularly fond of one of their signature blends, 'Espresso Smile' (previously called Espresso 1) ....it does just that - makes you smile :)
