Coffee Selection
ESSEX CLASS CoffeeS
That’s right! the students named these coffees - cool, eh?
Essex House Blend - medium roast blend
The ESSEX HOUSE BLEND MEDIUM ROAST is a classic blend of South & Central American coffees.
Also known as Sparkplug’s Deuce Coupe, the ESSEX HOUSE BLEND is smooth and balanced and makes a delicious cup of java. Especially recommended for filter brewed coffee - manual or automatic.
Rise of the Phoenix dark roast
Inspired by the Essex School’s PHOENIX, RISE OF THE PHOENIX DARK is a dark, strong, bold coffee. Also known as Sparkplug’s Globetrotter Espresso, this brew is smoky-sweet, smooth and suave - dark yet never bitter. Made for espresso, it is also delicious made in a French press or auto drip coffeemaker.
Skittles Special Ethiopian blend
Named for the adorable class rabbit, SKITTLES, organic Ethiopian beans are the secret to the SKITTLES SPECIAL’s sweet and balanced taste. Also known as Sparkplug’s Road Trip, this blend is roasted on the lighter side of medium to bring out hints of blueberry and milk chocolate. A lighter tasting and modern-style coffee, this one is for coffee connoisseurs. Tastes best drunk black or with a tiny splash of your fave coffee creamer.
Delicious Decaf
The Essex DELICIOUS DECAF is made from decaffeinated coffees from around the globe, roasted a little darker than usual for decaf, blended to create a delicious, full-flavoured coffee. Also known as Sparkplug’s Unleaded Decaf, this coffee is great brewed, amazing as espresso. Chocolatey with a rich body and clean finish. You'll never guess it's decaf!

the STANDARD 350g bag makes about 30-40 nice sized mugs
the LARGE 900g bag makes around 100 cups or 15-20 pots of coffee
How good is this coffee?
It’s the best coffee in Canada! We may be biased but you can trust our customers. See below for what they have to say about Sparkplug coffees.
All our coffees are made from ethically sourced, premium Arabica coffees. Most beans are directly traded, some are FairTrade and/or organic.
Every week, our coffees are roasted, hand-blended and packed to order (whole bean or ground just before shipping) to ensure it arrives as fresh as possible. We recommend drinking them up within 3-4 months of the packing date (noted on every bag) for the freshest, most flavourful coffee. Drink it up faster if it’s pre-ground.
PERK ME UP FAQ:
Do I just eat these? Whole coffee beans?
Yes, these are totally edible!
Do these contain caffeine?
Yes, Perk Me Ups contain caffeine and sugar so will give you a little energy boost.
How much will these perk me up?
Just a bit. They are safe to eat at any time of day. Just don't go crazy and eat them all just before bedtime!
