Roaster's Coffee

While we all love the unique expression of a single-origin coffee, sometimes a blend of origins on the espresso machine is a thing of beauty. This blend brings a depth of flavour which is often difficult to achieve with cherries from one farm. The Crowd Pleaser blend combines the ripe red fruits of a natural process Ethiopian coffee and the deeper chocolate tones of a smooth Brazilian coffee, put together in a ratio that allows both to shine and complement one another. This blend will deliver flavours of chocolate and cherry through both espresso and milk.

Roaster deep dive

Well, we have the pedigree. To be more precise we have Thomas, our buyer and coffee roaster. What he doesn’t know about coffee isn’t worth knowing. A New Zealander by birth and an admitted London café culture aficionado. It’s like having an encyclopedia of coffee at your fingertips. Just a little more fun.
