Half Espresso Blends
Half Filter Coffees

For some, just blends or only filter just doesn't feel right. So this is for the crazy kids out there who want the best of both worlds, want their cake and eat it too, one day they're the bird, the next the bee.. you know who you are..

In this package we will split each delivery right down the middle, sending half as a surprise blend.. the other as an ever changing single origin. 

Don't choose this if consistency and simplicity is your thing.. it will be ever changing and always exciting for the wild child!
