Bicycle Workshop consistant favourite <3 <3

We are avid coffee drinkers here at the workshop, or should that read addicted?! Tugboat's COLOMBIA MEDELLIN EXCELSO has been a consistent favourite, and given that we have tried a wide spectrum of coffees from independent roasters over the years, the COLOMBIA MEDELLIN EXCELSO has done well to become our now go to coffee, thank you Tugboat x

Great!

Lovely tea, fresh tasting and not too harsh. Excellent online service from Tugboat too.

My orders not complete without 23

Tugboat 23 is on every order and if I leave it off by mistake, I am a sadder man than before. It's my favourite coffee going.

Just the best

All the Tugboat blends or single bean coffees I have tasted have been exceptional. This one is no different. Exceptional.

Cinnamon Spice Tea

Fantastic

My first venture in to the loose tea game. And i am pleasantly surprised on how good it is. So much better than the fruit tea bags that taste and smell vaguely like a hamster cage.
Will definitely buy again.

Top Hat strainer!

Brilliant quality device, excellent value , and does the job superbly!

The breakfast tea sample was a lovely touch.

Santos

New favourite

We love Cafe Feminino and was sent Santos to try. Wow it has all the creaminess & smoothness of our old favourite, but with a stronger flavour coming through. Excellent for our morning coffees

Simon Coll hot chocolate

Simply the best hot chocolate I have ever tasted! Very difficult to source in the north east of Scotland. It is like a rich chocolate soup which satisfies all chocolate cravings. Great service too and a delicious and unexpected surprise with my order- would buy again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Delicious taste and smell

I love this coffee! It leaves a nice smell in the kitchen and the taste is very nice. It's subtle and delicate. Love it!

Honduras hazlenuts and dark chocolate

I have been buying this decaffinated coffee from Tugboat for a number of years now, the taste of chocolate and praline remain constant. Its always full of flavour. My friends always comment on the intensity of the taste and pleasant aroma

Coffee gift box

I’ve ordered a coffee gift box and bought in the shop a few times now. Lovely packaging, good value and I’d recommend the chocolate coffee beans to give it a special gift-y extra.

Willie's Hot Chocolate

ChocoHolic....!

I've finally been allowed to have a mug :-). Flo my wife has been raving about it ever since it arrived and is very precious about it, claiming its hers !? I'm glad to say she relented and allowed me to try it (with Oat Milk), wowzzer its delicious. I've just been informed by Flo were running out and told to order more PDQ.

A Favourite

Orange Blossom Ooolong is my favourite tea to drink at breakfast. The flavouring complements the Oolong taste and does not overwhelm it.
It's great to have found someone who ships orders so fast and uses recycleable packaging, so thank you Tugboat!
