normally retails at about £3.19 (Safeway). This is slightly more than some coffees, but when you think about the benefits the slightly higher cost brings, I don’t think this really matters.
The packaging of Café Direct is…well its not hugely classy, but then I don’t really think this matters either! It comes in a dark blue jar, with a greeny front, with a picture of a cup of coffee with steam coming off it. It carries the logo, the fairtrade logo, and the number 5065. 5060ft is the height at which it is believed the best coffee taste comes from. Café Direct use a range of heights – some up for 6000ft, for the highest quality.

Advantages: great taste and less guilt Disadvantages: packaging
Back when international trade was first developing, in the days of the silk road, when people travelled the world to bring back rare and exotic spices, we had a very different attitude to many of the things we now take for granted. There was a time when chocolate and sugar were rare, precious, and treated with caution. Really speaking, coffee belongs with these spices and rareties, as a luxurey for occasional use.

Advantages: It is great and quick for filtering through coffee machines Disadvantages: No caffiene to wake you up if you are sleepy
THUMBS UP TO MORRISONS FRESH GROUND DECAF COFFEE
I have tried Morrisions fresh ground decaf coffee several times and I must say how brilliant it is in many ways.

I have found it makes great lattes, cappuccinos, mochaccinos and liquior coffees.
It has an outstandingly appetising aroma when filtered and served.
I have found it is especially good for liquior coffees as it is not too strong and you taste the liquiors very well.
I have found it is great to have this as I am a coffee lover without the need to worry if I am having too much caffeine.
To all you coffee lovers out there I highly recommend this for all types of coffee that like the taste but want to avoid too much caffiene. ...
