Our strong Kick Start blend is a fantastic coffee to help you wake up in the morning, or keep you going through those long work days. It has a delicious sweet caramel flavour that can be enjoyed all through the day without becoming too acidic or bitter, and a divine velvety texture that works wonders in all your favourite filter coffees. But if you really want perking up, then enjoy this intense blend as a short, sharp espresso and immediately feel the benefits.

A medium-roast coffee praised for its strong yet smooth flavor. Customers said it provides "a kick to get the day started" with no bitter aftertaste. "Super strong coffee to wake you up in the morning but smooth taste and well balanced." Some found it slightly bitter as espresso. Excellent delivery service and pricing consistently noted.

Large - 908g / Beans

Having stumbled across this over ten years ago, I've been drinking this regularly with great satisfaction and see no reason to change. It seems to be the perfect medium-roast bean for me and my Lelit Elizabeth machine.

Kick Start Breakfast BLend

Searched online for a mild acidity breakfast blend coffee and decided to try this one out. I am very much enjoying its taste and it is living up to its kick start name!

I’ve found another great coffee

This coffee is strong, but at the same time smooth, and there is no unpleasant or bitter aftertaste. For several years now I have thoroughly enjoyed Monsoon Malabar and had many repeat orders. Occasionally I try a new coffee, usually with some disappointment. But not on this occasion! I shall certainly order more. My only criticism is the name - strong and smooth would be a better name.

New coffee, great flavour

Thought we’d try this new coffee. We really liked the intense flavour and the rich crema. It’s similar to Golden Crema coffee, which is one of our favourites. Would recommend and will be buying again.

A very pleasant coffee bean

A very pleasant coffee bean which has a great initial smell in the packet and also gives off a lovely aroma while brewing. The actual coffee for my taste is suitable for anytime as I prefer a strong cup.

My husband found the taste

My husband found the taste slightly bitter as an espresso. I had it as a long black and was wired all day for work. Going to reserve it for days when I need a slap across the face.

Love this coffee

This is a great coffee with lots of flavour. It has a good cream and, as it says in it’s name, a kick to get the day started and no bitter aftertaste. Having tried lots of beans, these are our favourite so far.

Certainly strong, this coffee hits all taste buds. It's a great for a morning pick me up, but not as strong as continental which is a positive. I recommend it
