If there’s one coffee that sums up what Volcano is about, it’s the Mount Blend. For over a decade, this has been the benchmark espresso for cafés, restaurants, and home brewers alike. Why? Because it’s everything speciality coffee should be: delicious, versatile, consistent and super easy to brew with.
This is the blend that makes people stick with us. If you want coffee you can trust every morning, or if you’re the type that cares about awards, farms, and impact, Mount delivers on all fronts.
Here’s why:
1. Flavour people actually love
The Mount Blend is specifically sourced and carefully roasted to enhance tasting notes of chocolate, caramel and roasted nuts - flavour combinations that are just meant to be when it comes to coffee. It’s elegant but still robust, smooth without the sharp acidity that turns some people off. From home brewers to London’s best restaurants, this is the type of coffee where speciality just makes sense: quality you can taste and flavours you can trust.
2. The most versatile blend we roast
On its own, the espresso is rich and satisfying. With milk or alt-milks, those chocolate and nut notes melt into the sweetness to create the flat white people come back for again and again. Whether you’re steaming oat milk at home or looking for the perfect espresso in a cafe , this is coffee that covers all bases.
3. Proven in the best cafés for 10+ years
We don’t just say it’s versatile it’s been tested every single day for over a decade by some of the UK’s leading restaurants and cafes. It’s their go-to because it delivers consistency in taste, quality, and performance. If you’ve ever had a flat white in your favourite South London café then chances are you might have already tasted The Mount Blend.
4. Award-winning for a reason
The Mount Blend has been awarded the top rating of three stars at the Great Taste Awards. That’s the highest recognition you can get for flavour. It’s not the reason we roast it, but it’s proof that the Mount Blend stands up to scrutiny from outside our walls.
5. Ethics with real impact
Part of what makes the Mount Blend special is where it comes from. The Brazilian component (making up 60% of the blend) is grown at Fazenda Mio, where we directly invest in the Sombra reforestation project. This creates biodiverse farming conditions while keeping production at a scale that can feed global demand. It’s more than sustainability marketing it’s a model that could protect Brazil’s coffee future while making the coffee taste better today.
The Bottom Line
The Mount Blend is speciality coffee without the complication. It’s the flavour profile that wins people over, the blend cafés depend on, the award-winner, and the farm project making a difference.
For busy people who just want coffee they can rely on, Mount is the safe bet. For those who care about story, sustainability, and craft, it’s the flagship that proves Volcano’s values in every cup.
