Darkside is a truly, strong flavoured coffee.
It is my main personal buy, always good consistent taste.
If you like strong this is the one.

We love this seasonal blend having just brewed our first flat whites from our recent order. As described, its rich and chocolatey with a nice fruity finish, without being a smack between the eyes!

As always, very efficient.

We usually alternate between Fortuna and Darkside through the year and this was a very nice change for Christmas.

Right, bear with me here, because this is going to sound pretentious - but I promise you I'm a normal person who doesn't usually say this sort of thing. Keep that in mind because it's important...all my self-worth is hinging on you not thinking I'm "one of them". But this stuff is so delicious, it really is. I've been drinking coffee for ages and I'm one of those who thinks it all tastes the same, unless you're talking about bargain basement stuff which is about 25p per kilo and tastes like it came out of the bin. I've never understood those people who talk about how coffee has distinct flavours and elements of chocolate, fruit, unicorn tears, fried eggs - whatever.

And yet...

...and yet I went to York a couple of months ago and stumbled across the only coffee shop that wasn't a massive chain nor rammed to the hilt with laptop-wielding hipsters. Ordered a coffee, sat down and took a sip. And honest to goodness, no word of a lie, insert appropriate exclamation here, I could TASTE stuff. Like, actual flavours and tastes and, whilst I refuse to admit it aloud for fear of having to surrender my Working Class Card, NOTES.

The most enjoyable coffee I have ever had and I was taken with it enough to Google it to see if I could buy it online. Hurrah and huzzah, I could! So I did! And then about a week or so later, I ordered more because it's so gosh darned delicious. Delivery is fast, coffee is fresh, and the price is so refreshing in this current financial climate (read: I'm poor). Have bought some as a Christmas gift for the son-in-law (major coffee snob) and I'm even throwing caution the wind and getting a decent coffee maker to really enjoy this stuff.

Long review is long, I know, but if you can't tell already, I love this coffee. Forget big-chain stuff or absurdly expensive brands - you cannot go wrong with this and both your wallet and tastebuds will thank you for it.

If they could talk, obviously.

A very drinkable coffee, smooth to the taste and a very pleasant experience. I use a hand burr grinder to grind 15g coffee and the beans are easy to grind, then make a very lively mixture in the AeroPress bowl, as I add water and finally deliver a great coffee.

As always, I've enjoyed every cup of this coffee, it never disappoints.
I've just got to sample the Merry Beans again, they only come out once a year, after all it is Christmas.

I've gone early with the review, having just placed an order.
I simply know my Christmas morning coffee's are gonna be just great.

Coffee is always of excellent quality. Had a friend of mine round, and after trying the Fortuna asked me where I bought my coffee, the proof is in the pudding, and he is now a customer.

On purchasing our first bean to cup coffee machine, my husband got Merry Beans as a Christmas gift. So the first beans ever used were merry beans and we absolutely loved it. We regularly check the divine coffee website in November to check when they’re available again. And as always divine coffee do an amazing job of dispatching so quickly. I’m even tempted to buy a few more bags to last us into the summer months, such a lovely coffee.

I love the brown sugar notes with this coffee. I have to dial it in just so to taste the grapefruit but definitely worth it!

I absolutely love this! With some coffees, you have to really dial them in to be able to taste the notes but not this - the cherry and chocolate is deliciously strong.

Very good . Wish it came in bigger bags. I just quit caffeine and it's hard to find good brands

Love this coffee and the company! Not only does their coffee hit the spot but they are an ethical company and delivery is always prompt and reliable.

We get the large whole bean Fortuna and the coffee always runs out before next order because it’s so good. But you can always bring the order forward so when you see you’re running low the coffee can be with you in as little as two days. We’re starting to avoid paying for coffee outside and wait until we are back home because the quality of the coffee beans is better than some coffee shops. Lovely crema and flavour.
