Just the right amount of acidity to be great as an espresso or long black. Also quite good in milk based drinks.

Great coffee and service

I got free replacement coffee because the first grind doesn’t work for my machine. The replacement coffee works well and taste great! It is dark roasted with rich dark chocolate taste for milk-based coffee.

The recent batch tastes differently

Not as pleasant as before, not sure what has been changed to this blend.

Shopping experience is always good at Directcoffee.

great service

staff is very helpful

Lucky Boy is delicious as espresso but shines in milk with its incredible sweetness, subtle orange acidity and creamy body.

Since making its debut on our menu, Lucky Boy has proven to be quite the all rounder, winning over lovers of Aeropress and plunger brew methods, partially due to its boyish charm, but mainly thanks to its incredibly smooth texture.

 

ESPRESSO BLEND DESCRIPTION

We introduced this humble blend in 2019 to complement our existing house favourites - Daddy’s Girl and the Seasonal Blend - and ever since, Lucky Boy has garnered its own cult following.

Simplicity is key with the Lucky Boy comprising only two components. The Guatemala Huehuetenango - a mild, yet structured coffee with warm chocolate notes. Clarity and fruit forward yet balanced acidity is on point when balanced with the Brazil Sweet Espresso.

The Brazil Sweet Espresso brings the creaminess, sweetness, a little body, finishing with toffee, and vanilla.
