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.
