Description
The 1945 Blue Mountain Blend – 2 × 227g Pack of Heritage Collection Ground Coffee Backstory
The Nairobi Coffee and Tea Company was founded over one hundred years ago, and ever since that time we have been cultivating and recording recipes, some of which have become iconic ground coffee blends.
Now in our second century of roasting and grinding, we revisited our bestselling creations from an earlier era. With that sense of curiosity, we turned to our 1940s Heritage Collection of ground coffees.
Our 1945 Blue Mountain Ground Coffee Blend is inspired by the taste and aroma of traditional Blue Mountain Coffee. It was originally created to honour Victory in Europe and to mark the formal incorporation of The Nairobi Coffee and Tea Company, making it a rather special heritage ground coffee indeed.
The taste and aroma of 1940s coffees were very different from today’s blends. This gentle approach to roasting and blending a particular selection of coffees produces a refinement that leaves you satisfied, uplifted, and ready for the day ahead.
What we have lovingly recreated can be summed up in a single phrase. The 1945 Blue Mountain Ground Coffee Blend tastes like serenity after victory. We hope you enjoy this historic ground coffee as much as we enjoyed bringing it back to life.
This double pack contains 2 × 227g packets of 1945 Blue Mountain Blend ground coffee, giving you 454g in total. Two individual packets help preserve freshness while giving you the convenience of keeping one packet ready to enjoy and another waiting for your next brew.
Collect all 10 Heritage Coffees and experience luxury ground coffee from pivotal points in history. The past has never tasted so good.
