From bean to cup

We are connoisseurs in every step of the journey, from bean to barista: from sourcing to roasting, blending to serving. And all of our craftspeople apply this knowledge to every single gram of coffee we produce annually. We know flavour is not simply about the roast. Coffee is a product of nature. That’s why climate, soil, rainfall and even altitude all play a valuable role in shaping the flavours poured into every cup. Our team of specialists source the freshest, highest-quality beans from Central America to the Far East.

GREAT TASTING CUP OF COFFEE

COFFEE BELT

Coffee grows between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. Often referred to as the Coffee Belt, this area has the right environmental conditions for the plant, including high temperatures, lots of sun and rain, plus favourable altitudes and soil type.
