Fantastic way to start your day! Review by ['Julia']

Very smooth coffee... no bitter bite. The kind of coffee that you finds you shocked that the cup is already empty...because you kept going back for the next sip! Would highly recommend this coffee to all!

Love this coffee Review by Linda

With the Covid 19, I am home safe. But really wanted some of Murchie's coffee. No travel, no coffee this can not be. I cruise and every time I am at Victoria I have to stop at Murchie's. Problem solved I order it. I got my order yesterday and so, so happy. I love the smooth taste and smell of your coffees. I have two more bags, one of Murchie's Best and one of CBC Radio (new one for me). Thank you so much Canada!!

Creamy Deliciousness Review by Kristina

This coffee is so smooth and yummy! I buy Murchies Best every Christmas for my parents because they love it and thought I would try a bag of Government Blend for fun. This is now our new favourite! So good.....

Top-of-the-line for espresso! Review by Birdman

While checking out the coffees for espresso, a clerk said Government Street Blend was the one used in espresso at the coffee shop, and that it tastes excellent in that medium. She was soooo right. It’s our go-to coffee for everyday drinking. Note: I was a die-hard Starbucks coffee drinker (as well as a long-time Starbucks shareholder), but now I order Government Street Blend shipped to my home In Washington. It’s worth the minimal shipping cost!

Love this roast! Review by James

I received the whole bean Government Street Blend Coffee as a Christmas gift. I enjoy my coffee and all the varieties available in the coffee-centric city of Victoria. I was very impressed with this roast and will definitely be buying more. I highly recommend it to my fellow coffee drinkers - especially if you're a fan of the medium to dark roasts as I am.

So good Review by Gloria

I love Murchie’s Government Street Blend coffee! Just right— I always buy two bags so I don’t run out. So good to have a big French pressed cup when I get up in the morning!

Great change of pace. Review by Leslie

Fell in love with the coffee offered by Murchie's while on vacation there last July. Have ordered this brand a couple of times since then. A very good flavor, I save it normally for weekends, holidays and guests in order to get that special treat from it. I highly recommend this brand.(7-4-14)

Best Medium Ever! Review by Kyla - Murchie's Team Member

This is one of my family’s favorite coffees. They have offered it to their friends and guests who always make a point to ask where the coffee came from. They are so happy to share their passion for a really good cup and it truly brings people together. Nothing else matters until you get the perfect cup of coffee into your hands....I highly recommend this coffee for anyone who likes a full bodied cup with low acidity. Again, perfection.

Brewing the Best (Guide)

These coffee guidelines are a starting point; modify the ratio of coffee to water, the grind, and brewing time to your taste.

If your coffee is not strong enough, increase the proportion of coffee per cup of water, grind the beans finer, or allow them to brew longer - or any combination of these factors. If your coffee is too strong, simply do the opposite.

Drip coffee or pour-over method:

Hot water is gradually poured over the coffee grounds and slowly drips through.

Fine to medium grind coffee
1.5 to 2.5 tablespoons of coffee per cup of water

French Press:

Coffee grounds are 'steeped' in hot water, and then a filter presses down the grounds, allowing the finished coffee to be poured off.

Coarse grind coffee
1.5 to 2.5 tablespoons of coffee per cup (e.g. 4-6 tbsp for a 4-cup French press)
Pour about 1/3 of the water over the coffee grinds; wait about 30 seconds and then pour in the rest
Wait 4-5 minutes, then push down the plunger to separate the grounds from the finished coffee, and enjoy!
