How we source it

Direct relationships and importers we have worked with for years. We pay above the Fairtrade floor on every lot and publish what we paid in our impact report.

Storage and freshness

Our Coffee

We take pride in our approach to sourcing speciality grade green coffee from countries of origin based on the principles of direct trade, quality and seasonality. We ensure the coffees we serve are as fresh and seasonal as possible to showcase the wonderful diversity of flavours and aromas found in different coffees around the world.

In addition to our focus on direct trade and seasonality, we have a strong focus on quality. Higher quality means a better price for the farmer so it is very important that we continue to work with the producers that consistently supply us with high scoring coffees. This helps them secure a higher price which is often 4 - 5 times higher than the Fairtrade minimum.
