Citrus note coffee

Ascension Blend is a fantastic choice if you love a bright, citrusy coffee with real energy.
From the first sip, it feels lively and refreshing. There’s a beautiful citrus note running through it, think subtle orange or grapefruit brightness, giving it a crisp, clean finish without being sour. It has a light-to-medium body that keeps it smooth and easy to drink, while still offering plenty of character.

Great for pour over filter…

I wanted medium roast and non acidic for my pour over coffee and ascension blend delivered. It’s smooth and easy to drink. My hubby and I are really enjoying this blend every morning with breakfast.

Great blend!

This blend works both for pour-over and milk-based coffee. I use it on my Bambino with a Jx-pro hand grinder for espresso and on a V60 for pour-over. It is my favourite blend so far. Not for those who want the chocolaty note but the fruity side of the coffee, mind you. On pour-over, the coffee is flavourful with the right amount of acidity which gives an amazing after taste. On milk-based coffee, it gives a good balance of sweetness and flavour for my taste bud. Again, as the levels suggest, it is on the fruity side, a great blend if this is what you are looking for.

I enjoyed a Saturday morning tour of your premises and intro to your products and roasting technique. Coffee from your caravan was great. Glad I discovered you.
Staff are enthusiastic and pleasant and service is excellent

Very enjoyable for filter

I'm definitely in the black style of filter coffee. I've given this coffee from Danes a go on different platforms that I use. What I'm really enjoying is with my syphon. Just took it to a new level. Also loved the black velvet. Thanks Danes you have my interest

Not bad

This blend is very unique. It has strong flavours and with a dash of milk is balanced perfectly. Straight it’s a bit straw like.
