Lavazza. Good coffee. I keep mine in a tupperware box in the fridge (somebody once told me that too much cold forces the oils out, but that reeks of cod to me).
Pig Cat said:Yes Ken, pre-roasted beans.
When I ordered a kilogram I imagined a rather large sack. It is quite big, but now that I'm getting through the cups I reckon it won't last too long. Amazon has a 'subscribe and save' thingy where you get 10% off if you place a regular order. I reckon 1kg will need re-ordering every 2-3 months. Think I might give it a go.
