  do you only provide one-estate coffee? or are you planning on making your own / our own custom blends?

  Great question! Nearly all our coffees are single estate rather than blends. They're the best green beans on the planet so blending would be a bit of an insult to the producers, and would hide some of the unique nuances of each bean. We'll leave that kind of carry on to the commodity coffees than line supermarket shelves.

  The only exception to this rule is the espresso blend (we also offer single-estate espressos for those who want something a little more exotic!) Here we blend two of our single-estate beans and roast slightly darker as this is the best way to achieve the right balance of acidity, sweetness etc.

  Thanks so much for getting this set up with us David - we're all looking forward to meeting a few more LFGSS peeps! I just wanted to say hi to those of you giving us a try for the first time, answer any questions you have and take suggestions for how we could improve.

  Very happy to do any of the above in this thread, or email stephen@pactcoffee.com if you'd like a little more privacy :)

  P.S. For those of you who joined Pact during the last promotion, I can't recommend getting a V60 enough. At £5 we're not making a profit (I think they're £10 or so when they come up on Amazon) and they make an amazing, clean cup of coffee in seconds.

  You can spend far less than £150 for BB in London if you know where to look. Even some hostels have private rooms at £60 ish. Or you could try crashing with a Londoner through crashpadder.com - read about them in the Telegraph last week but have not used it yet myself.
