Happy with this!

Easy to order, arrived in the time frame given. Was bought as a gift so can't comment on taste but the smell as I wrapped it was divine!

Great coffee from here

Great coffee from here. Lovely and fresh. Delivery was prompt and a few little stickers chucked in. I love that they do flavoured whole beans and not many places do.

Great Coffee and Service

I have used Volcano CW since I discoverd them via a recommendation from a friend and would not go anywhere else now. Prompt delivery and quality coffee. Both decaff that the wife has and the full leaded one I have. Not the cheapest beans, but you get what you pay for in this world. Outstanding.

Great coffee!

Asa seasoned coffee drinker, I mainly used Alpress and Ozone, I am surprised with the Volcano Coffee's quality. Just got the right note and flavoursome. I will be back for more.

Excellent service from Volcano Coffee…

Excellent service from Volcano Coffee Works. Royal Mail 'lost' my parcel and I contacted VCW via email. I received a response & they sent a replacement order straightaway, which I received today. The customer service was brilliant. The coffee smells divine. I am very impressed with the service and would not hesitate to use this company again.

I was intrigued by the toffee apple…

I was intrigued by the toffee apple coffee so ordered that and a couple of other varieties. The ordering process was simple and the coffee arrived quickly. The toffee apple beans are great, they really do make a coffee with apple notes. Will buy from Volcano again.

Lovely coffee

Bought some of the "Sombra" coffee for my son's 18th birthday hamper (he was getting a bean-to-cup coffee maker for his birthday) and both he and my husband (the coffee drinkers in the household) agree that this coffee is lovely, and they are both keen to try more Volcano varieties

The only fly in the ointment was us being let down by the DHL delivery, meaning the coffee actually arrived after the birthday ( I ordered it a week or so before the big event) so I would advise ordering in plenty of time if doing so.
