Gourmet Coffee
We generally advise you to steer clear of foodstuffs when buying gifts for men, but in the case of good coffee we make an exception.
Go for a fair trade coffee preferably from a single estate. There are some great coffee varieties on offer such as Brazilian, Monsoon Malabar, Blue Mountain Kenyan Elephant and Guatemalan,
Buy unground beans (if they dont have a coffee grinder they probably will not appreciate coffee as a gift anyway).
You will be remembered for giving a gift that tastes great and makes them feel good.
And if the coffee sounds like a good idea for a gift, think what he could achieve with a good coffee maker. Don't go for a 'system' using sachets or pods of expensice pre ground coffe. He needs the ability to grind the coffee himself and then put it through a coffee maker to get a perfect espresso as fresh as possible. The worlds most famous make for coffee machines is Gaggia.
