the icons collection from gordon st coffee edinburgh is a multi-origin set of six one-kilogram bags, drawing on beans from ethiopia, kenya, brazil, guatemala, and india. that spread of origins covers a wide range of growing conditions, from east african highlands to south american and south asian farms. in the cup, expect caramel sweetness alongside earthy depth, a combination that suits drinkers who want body and grounded character rather than sharp brightness. with six kilograms in the set, it makes sense to dial in each bag separately, as the different origins will behave differently at extraction. filter and espresso are both worth trying depending on which origin you're working with.
common questions
What does Icons Collection 6 x 1kg taste like?
the collection is described as caramel and earthy, meaning you can expect a grounded sweetness with body rather than high acidity or floral brightness. the exact balance may shift slightly between the individual bags, since the set spans five different origins.
How is Icons Collection 6 x 1kg grown and processed?
the beans come from ethiopia, kenya, brazil, guatemala, and india, covering a broad mix of growing regions and altitudes. no single processing method is specified for the collection as a whole, so each origin likely brings its own production background.
How should I brew Icons Collection 6 x 1kg?
no specific brew method or roast level is listed, so it is worth treating each of the six bags as its own starting point and adjusting grind and ratio accordingly. the caramel and earthy profile generally responds well to both espresso and longer filter methods.
