Our limited-edition Bonfire Night omni roast, Penny for the Guy combines carefully selected coffees from Brazil, Honduras and Uganda to create a cup that’s big, dark and sticky.

Built for cold hands, dark evenings and standing slightly too close to the bonfire, this seasonal coffee is rich, comforting and reassuringly low in acidity.
Whether you’re pulling espresso shots, adding milk or brewing a big cafetière for the garden, Penny for the Guy delivers a bold and syrupy cup.

GOOD DEEDS • GREAT COFFEE
Bonfire Night has always been built around community: wrapping up warm, gathering together and passing a mug around while the sky lights up.
