At Scotsman we have a passion for coffee

Whatever style appeals to you – brewed, dripped, filtered, pressed, blended, shaken, stirred and more – we believe it should always be perfectly prepared and presented.

“I only use Scotsman ice, because it’s perfect for every occasion. They make really, really good ice. The quality and hardness is amazing for us baristas. Absolute clarity with no white colour, a low mineral count for purity and slow melting qualities ensure perfect results every time.” Michalis Dimitrakopoulos, Scotsman Ice brand ambassador.
