Flavour is Paramount

We pick coffees that have personality.

We select our coffees on the basis of their flavour clarity and ability to pique our interest. Where possible we sample coffee blindly so that we  are free to judge on flavour; rather than relying on our prejudices of the region, the producer or the persuasiveness of their communications. Because we buy from specific producers, we expect a good coffee’s flavours to be distinct and definable and we we want those flavours to be complimentary – or  to collide in an interesting way.

From Crop to Cup

You can see the producer’s name on the bag.

To serve single estate coffee requires a sourcing chain that extends from the farm and workers, to picking and packaging, screening and grading, brokerage, shipping, roasting and – finally – coffee making. By working closely with our partners we are able to bring some of the best coffees in the world to your cup.

The grades of coffee we buy can only be produced by farmers who have a passion for their crop and are skilled in agribusiness.

You Be The Judge

All our coffees are of a high-quality.

Quality and enjoyment are two different facets of tasting. Just because it’s good, doesn’t mean you’ll like it. That’s why we talk about coffees based on their flavour profiles.

We want you to try as many coffees as possible and to lean which types of flavour your enjoy. You’ll find that there is no such thing as the perfect coffee, rather there are flavours that suit certain times, moods, foods and occasions.

Coffee is a Social Drink

The best coffee is always a coffee shared.

From its origins in the tribal villages of Ethiopia’s highlands to the bustle our coffee shops, coffee has always been drunk in a social setting.  Quality and flavour clarity fail to compare to the quality of the company you keep. Complete your coffee-drinking experience by ensuring to share a cup with someone you like.
