I've always been a tea drinker, not really into coffee at all, then during our holiday in France last year I got totally hooked on expresso and I mean HOOKED.

Fast forward and my partner has just bought me a Sage Duo Temp and Pro grinder, being a bloke, impatient and not bothering to check, I promptly shot off to my local supermarket and bought some beans, resulting in really ummm crap coffee.

So now starting from scratch as I realise I need freshly ground beans.

I know taste is a very personal thing when it comes to coffee, but having looked through website after website from various roasters around the country I'm a little bit overwhelmed as to where to start.

I'm trying to recreate that 'wow' buzz I experienced in the various cafes in France so looking for something strong.

Recommendations please folks.
