Creamy and smooth with a little bright acidity and a lovely good depth, body and crema. Takes milk well, some in the camp say very well.

6AM whole beans are an absolute treat for those times I’m feeling bourgie and want a machine coffee instead of a pressed coffee. Such a delicious bean, as always from Coffee Real.
Love the 6AM espresso blend (in my cafetière…controversial I know) all jokes aside, I do regularly drink it around 6AM, and it always hits the spot!
Truly wonderful coffee! Great in a mocha pot. You'll never be able to drink the mainstream stuff again when you have had this.
This is my go-to coffee, always smooth, always great.
The 6am blend is consistently good. It's very similar to what I used to have at my favourite coffee shop! Chocolatey goodness!! Highly recommend.
Of all the espresso blends available is is by far the best. Consistently good from order to order. Recommend!
Easiest thing I've found to get dialed in and produce consistent, good espresso.
Having purchased a new coffee machine for the office, we tried several brands and coffees and this blend was the outright winner by far!
Fantastic coffee - exactly as described and a nice contrast to Gone for Lunch. Bought the beans and have been making espresso with my Cafelat Robot. 18g in, 10s pre-infusion, 36g out. Delicious and tasting notes all accurate and identifiable!
I bought two bags of this with the expectation that it would be my go to coffee during the mornings. This coffee has more than met my expectations and is excellent as an espresso or Americano with a little milk. I'm still learning how to discern discreet flavours from the coffee however, I will say that this is a flavourful coffee and one I will be ordering again in a few days when my supply at home runs low.
One of my regular purchases and I like the option of 1kg bags. With lockdown we have all been drinking more of this great coffee.
Six am Espresso is a great way to start your day. It is a really smooth blend with just the right strength and a fantastic crema head.
This is great coffee, don't normally like espresso, it this one I sheath full flavour no lingering after taste

Additional Information
Six AM is a blend with a cracking character.
A blend with nice complexity and a little brightness brought about by the Wild Grown Ethiopian Djimmah, but nothing too convoluted, some sweet fruit from the Finca El Bosque and India Sethuraman Pulped Natural to push out the richness and provide depth / body.
Firm favourite in the Coffee Real camp and with many of you it would seem - there is no question that the Djimmah gives this blend its personality – although not too overbearing - a firm finish and very authentic.

The espresso brewing system used, the number brewing parameters and methods employed pulling an espresso shot will have an influence on the coffee's flavour and mouthfeel.
We provide brewing benchmarks or brewing range indicators to all of our espresso blends to provide as much data as possible to gain the highest degree of consistency from the roastrey cupped shot to the baristas shot. These benchmarks and/or brewing range indicators are just that – all they do is suggest what to be looking for to get near to the roastery cupping shot as possible.
Roasting Notes
We place espresso quality before convenience – our espresso blends are never pre-mixed before roasting thus ensuring the ideal roast profile is reached for each varietal used in a blend.
