Where can I buy pure robusta beans in the UK?
Hi all,
I like a strong, dark roasted coffee with a slightly bitter taste and plenty of caffeine. Often I make filter coffee using the Lavazza espresso range. Now I have a grinder and I want to buy some pure robusta beans out of curiousity. I know many people say they're inferior to arabica, but it's all a matter of opinion. Any idea where I could buy some (dark roasted) in the UK? Suggestions would be appreciated. Chris Tidy |
