Description

Our Fairtrade Colombian coffee is an easy-going, all-day cup: smooth enough for a mid-afternoon refill, with enough depth to make your morning feel like an occasion.

Colombia is one of the world's best-known origins for washed Arabica coffee. Its beans are grown on the slopes of the Andes, where altitude, rich volcanic soils and steady rainfall help produce a clean, rounded cup.

We hand roast these beans in small batches. This brings out their natural chocolate notes and a gentle caramel sweetness, while keeping the finish soft and balanced.

We supply this coffee as whole beans because they hold their flavour and aroma far longer than pre-ground coffee.

Grind just before you brew and you capture the coffee at its freshest, whichever brewing method you prefer.
