Catch up over a quality coffee this winter

It’s September, summer is nearly over and winter is slowly creeping up on us once again.  The days will soon be getting shorter and we’ll soon be waking up to moody blue skies and leaving work in darkness. As the wintery nights start drawing in, it's the perfect time to enjoy some time at home. That isn’t to say you can’t indulge and enjoy the finer things in life.  
 
Throwing a dinner party is great way to catch up with friends and show off your culinary skills. There are no last orders at home so you can entertain till the small hours. The smell of premium Roast and Ground coffee filling the room will make you a popular host. With the help of Douwe Egberts’ new Limited Edition coffees, Etienne’s Signature blends, you can treat your guests to a truly luxury coffee and end the evening in style.

A smoother, less punchy, coffee is the Velvet blend; perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon after an indulgent family roast. Etienne has used his expertise and dedication to create something truly special with this luxuriously smooth and velvety coffee.
