LUXURIOUS INSTANT COFFEE

We use the same naturally processed, high quality, single-origin, Brazilian beans as our Butter Knife Espresso and roast it at home in Toronto.

The coffee is then extracted and slowly freeze dried to sublimate the water without exposing it to high heat. This yields a powdered instant coffee that maintains its delicious chocolatey + nutty flavor and aroma.

IT’S PERFECT FOR THE COTTAGE, CAMPING, OR ON-THE-GO WHEN YOU’RE CRUNCHED FOR TIME.

ONLINE NOW AND IN SHOPS NEXT WEEK.

GREAT THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES.

The Black Diamond Chain Link Espresso Mug is a 3oz ceramic shot glass that punches up in weight by looking like a coffee mug four times its size.

Designed with a small, C-shaped handle that is easy to grip, this mug will be a staple of your home coffee bar for years to come.

Get your fingers on one before they’re all gone. Available online now. In SJCB shops this coming weekend.
