Gourmet Coffee Beans, Coffee Capsules and More

Explore new and different kinds of gourmet coffee beans, plus other coffee varieties and formats. As coffee machines become more streamlined, efficient and personal, the way you consume your coffee follows suit. While everyone loves a richly brewed cup, some coffee makers use coffee pods or capsules, while others simply need a scoop of your favourite grounds. For a premiere cup of coffee, rely on gourmet coffee beans and grind them yourself in a burr grinder or run them through a coffee maker that has a grinder included.

Choosing Each Kind of Coffee

The type of coffee you choose depends on your type of coffee maker, your personal preference for strength and the beverage you want to make.

• For instance, coffee capsules come in a variety of different flavours, but you can also select them based on your coffee drink, like ristretto, an espresso-like shot with less water.
• When shopping for gourmet coffee beans, look for collections that include a variety of flavours. These flavours subtly enhance your coffee experience for a varied taste as the weeks go by.
• If you like the convenience of ground coffee, check out Illy coffee bags or other bagged coffee. The bags keep light out and help temperature stay constant, as long as you properly store them.

Gourmet Coffee Blends

Gourmet coffee blends are also popular. Blends allow you to enjoy enticing flavours beyond the pure essence of just the coffee taste.

• Look for unique flavours that bring out the best in your coffee, like a Georgia pecan blend, an aromatic French vanilla or luxurious chocolate truffle.
• The classic French roast blend is a popular everyday coffee. Try a high-quality version in a bag that you can easily reseal.
• Check your favourite coffee producers, like Trisha Yearwood, for signature blends. These blends encompass the flavours and mood of coffee from producers and curators you already love.

Giving a Ground Coffee Gift Set

Gourmet coffee beans and other coffee gifts are always a great idea. With most people you know loving coffee, especially in the mornings, a ground coffee set, a gift of capsules or a mix of coffee and tea gifts in a beautiful basket make friends and loved ones feel special.

Give coffee as a gift for housewarmings, as congratulations for a promotion or job well done, to a new graduate for graduation, or as a host gift next time you're invited to a wonderful dinner.
