Coffee Blends at Coffee-Direct
With over 30 years’ experience producing speciality coffee beans, Coffee-Direct offers a wide range of exclusive, high-quality coffee blends – specially crafted roasts made up of more than one single-origin bean, carefully developed by our expert team of roasters.
Each combination is rigorously tried and tested to create new and delicious flavour profiles that balance out varying acidities, taste notes and aromas, and, like all our coffees, our blends are roasted to order and in small batches, ensuring you always receive the freshest beans to your door.
How are Coffee Blends Made?
The blending process occurs before the beans are roasted. Our expert team of coffee roasters carry out multiple taste tests to ensure that the exact ratio of different single-origin coffee beans is correct before roasting. Although beans from different origins can be roasted together, some blends need their beans to be roasted separately, such as blends that mix Arabica and Robusta beans. Similarly, washed and unwashed coffee combinations tend to be roasted separately before they are mixed together.
Golden Crema – From £14.99
This is the crème de la crème of coffee blends, a robust, rich and bold coffee of the highest quality to spoil yourself with at any time of day. The strong blend makes an exquisite espresso that could be just the thing to give yourself a midday pick-me-up, but if you want to enjoy this treat to its fullest then use it as a base for all your favourite filter coffees: the luxurious texture is brought to the forefront when you add steamed milk, creating creamy, silky lattes and cappuccinos that are the height of comfort.
Italian – From £13.99
The same blend as our Continental coffee but roasted slightly lighter, so that the same great flavour is produced without the oily characteristics, making it ideal for smooth and intense espressos. While our Italian is classed as a strong coffee and is best enjoyed as an espresso, you don't need to feel restricted to that single drink. Why not start the day with Italian coffee beans as a base for your favourite filter coffees, and enjoy a powerful, full-flavoured experience.
Arabica Supremo – From £19.99
An extraordinary, complex blend of 100% Arabica beans from five different coffee-growing locations across the world. Deep, rich and smooth, with an exotic, spicy aroma, the recipe for this ingenious mix of high quality, expertly roasted beans is a well-kept secret, but once tried, you’ll be left in no doubt as to how amazing it tastes. Arabica Supremo is roasted dark, with a strength level of 8/10, and flavour and aroma level of 6/10, making it ideal for espresso and bean-to-cup use.
Java Santos – From £14.99
This blend of Indonesian Java and Brazilian Santos creates a wonderfully strong coffee that's full of flavour, but without any bitterness. Java, or Kopi Jawa as Indonesians refer to it, is typically a strong, slightly sweet coffee, and it works wonders here with the light body and low acidity of Santos. The balance of flavours creates an indulgent blend that's best enjoyed as an espresso, but can also be used in a cafetiere or as a base for your favourite filter coffees.
Caffè Marcos – From £19.99
Our premier blend of expertly roasted coffees from the very finest plantations in Central and South America, mixed with complex tones from African and Indian speciality beans for a deep, rich and full-bodied coffee. A slight hint of acidity is balanced beautifully with a mellow flavour in what we consider to be one of our greatest ever blends. Perfectly suitable for an exquisite espresso, Caffè Marcos forms the ideal base for all manner of coffee drinks.
