Finally Steve comes up with a sensible name. Kicker would be a good name for a nitrogenous fertiliser, Blake reminds me of Gordon Blake, the 60's Russian spy and his memorable Jailbreak, hmmmmm. 
I like all of them, though the warning about Sherbet Lemons didn't really prepare me for the very strong taste of sherbet lemons in Kicker. I expected a hint or two, not the real thing. Other people's reactions have been fun to watch.
However, I'm very fond of Jabberwocky, already. Fragrant and acidic and sweet while retaining a few dark notes. My favourite of the new blends.
Stick with the Lewis Carroll theme, Stephen. Let's have a Bandersnatch blend . . . And I can already imagine what Cheshire Cat would taste like. |

I doubt whether many of the French news correspondents have even gotten a whiff of it. 
I'll get my coat now.  |

| Haven't tried it in a press pot, 250g bags don't last very long here and it ran out wile we were still thinking about it as and espresso. We only do presspots for large numbers of guests and with the builders in, that's not going to happen for a bit. |
