(Back to Coffee)

 Our expert roastmaster's philosophy for ethical sourcing from small, family owned farms, enable them to purchase and skillfully roast only the finest Arabica beans. The beans fom each origin are hand roasted in small batches to perfectly balance the acidity and sweetness of the coffee. It requires skill and judgment to know when the beans have reached the perfect roast. The full, dark chestnut roast style employed by our roasters, coupled with the superior bean quality produces a richer, smoother and more flavourful coffee. The coffee is immediately packed and sent out ready to reach the bean customers at the peak of perfection.
