We had a blast at our recent coffee tasting event, where the mission was to pick our new Nexus coffee blend for the business lounge. After sampling some seriously good options, we’ve chosen a winner—the Guatemala Roast from North Star Coffee Roasters 🎉 This one stood out with its smooth, chocolatey flavour and bold vibe, and we can’t wait for you all to try it. Big thanks to everyone who joined in and helped us find the perfect cup. Stay tuned—your new favourite coffee is on the way! ☕ Alan Gallacher Tara Holleyhead John Snalam Polina Orlova
