Why we love this coffee

Old faithful!! Rich and balanced with loads of sugar browning aromatics, a syrupy texture and sweet flavours of deep chocolate, nut and cherry. This coffee always gives us Reese’s peanut butter cup vibes. Can’t really go wrong.

Punch Buggy is our “go-to” reliably tasty alternative. We delight in trying the new coffees that you provide and I keep a portion of the labels for reference. We write on them a brief assessment. Generally we find Ethiopian and Costa Rican coffees very good and reliable but it’s fun when other countries unexpectedly surprise which I think may be related to your buying from different growers. And your “travelogues” on your website of your suppliers are cool. We recommend Detour to coffee-loving friends. Hope your business continues successfully.

Love the coffee, but shipping has been complete nightmare lately. It takes weeks to even start roasting, so I’m stuck with no coffee after forking out hundreds of dollars. The delivery needs reworking ASAP. I never had any complaints but 2024 has been getting worse and worse for processing and shipping times.

My new daily driver

This espresso walks the line between conventional and "specialty" coffee well. Grear acidity without being overpowering, and easy to dial in and keep consistent. I've adopted it as my standard daily brew at this point.

Machine: Breville Bambino Plus

Grinder: Fellow Opus
