Specialty Grade, From Farms We Can Trace

We only buy specialty coffee: green coffee that scores 82 points or more on the Specialty Coffee Association's 100-point scale. That score tells you the beans were carefully grown, picked ripe and processed well. We buy through specialist importers who have direct, long-term relationships with the farms and cooperatives they work with, so every coffee is traceable to where it was grown.

Hand Roasted on Dorothy and Penny

Every bag we have ever sold has been roasted on one of our two restored vintage Probat roasters. Dorothy is a 1950s Probat UG22, and Penny is a Probat LG12 we found in Berlin. We roast every batch by hand, to order, and every bag carries its roast date. Order before 9am on a working day and we dispatch the same day.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is artisan roasted coffee?

Artisan roasted coffee is roasted by hand in small batches, with each roast adjusted to suit the coffee, rather than produced in bulk on a fixed setting. We roast every batch on our restored vintage Probat roasters in Devon.

What does specialty grade coffee mean?

Specialty coffee scores 82 points or more on the Specialty Coffee Association's 100-point scale. We only buy coffee at this grade, which means beans that were well grown, picked ripe and carefully processed.

Where does your coffee come from?

We buy through specialist importers who have direct, long-term relationships with the farms and cooperatives they source from, so every coffee is traceable to where it was grown.

Can I buy your artisan coffee ground, or by the kilo?

Yes. Choose whole beans, or fresh ground coffee ground to order for your brew method. Buying coffee by the kilo saves up to 31% compared with 250g bags.

How fresh is your artisan coffee?

We roast to order, and every bag shows its roast date. Order before 9am on a working day and we dispatch the same day.
