Espresso Coffee
Espresso is one of the most popular brewing methods for enjoying speciality coffee, providing the foundations for your morning flat white or short espresso shots.
At Origin, all of our coffee is omni roasted which means it’s suited for all brewing methods, not just espresso coffee. The coffee is roasted to the sweet spot that gets the most from the innate characteristics from the terroir it was grown.
Although our blends are specifically designed for espresso drinkers, our full range of single origins also taste delicious as espresso, both with and without milk. This means that you enjoy our full range without missing out on any because of the device you use. Whether you prefer a classic shot of espresso or a milky latte, our collection has something to offer.
Our coffee is sourced from some of the best producing countries around the world, including El Salvador, Nicaragua and Kenya, ensuring a unique flavour profile no matter the origin.
Own a grinder at home? Perfect. Simply select our espresso coffee bean option and grind at home? No grinder? No problem. We also offer pre ground espresso coffee options, tailored for your home espresso machine.
