TEST ROAST

Every now and then, a test roast is simply too good not to share.

These are small batches from the roastery; coffees we’re testing, learning from and enjoying along the way. A few imperfections but still mightily tasty.

Available in 250g bags until the batch runs out. Hit the link in our bio to grab a bag.

Once it’s gone, it’s gone.

RARE COFFEE

Experimental Processing, Limited Runs.

Our first Rare release showcases an incredible carbonic maceration natural coffee from an often overlooked origin.

Established in 1920, Ratnagiri is owned and operated by Ashok Patre. Ashok described the process for this lot as follows:
“This is a 96-hour extended carbonic maceration natural processed coffee. It is from the Hemavathi varietal grown on our farm at 4500 feet from the block called Sivermara Patte.

The Brix of the coffee cherries was 25.9 when harvested and they were put in the Bio fermenters after floater removal. The coffee was inoculated with a mix of different lab-grown cultures. The tanks were then purged with carbon dioxide gas, and the coffee was fermented for 96 hours. After removing the coffee, they were directly put on raised beds for slow drying. The coffee was then dried slowly with constant stirring over the next 31 days”

This coffee highlights how careful processing can impact flavour. We love the mango, orange and marzipan notes this coffee offers.

RARE COFFEE - INDIA RATNAGIRI

The first of our rare coffees, this carbonic maceration natural has notes of mango, orange and marzipan.

Established in 1920, Ratnagiri is owned and operated by Ashok Patre. This is a 96-hour extended carbonic maceration natural processed coffee from the Hemavathi varietal grown at 4500 feet on our farm in the Sivermara Patte block.

The Brix of the coffee cherries was 25.9 at harvest, and after floater removal, they were placed in Bio fermenters. The coffee was inoculated with a mix of different lab-grown cultures, then fermented for 96 hours under carbon dioxide. Afterward, it was moved to raised beds for slow drying, which took 31 days with constant stirring.

Despite the extended processing, this coffee is surprisingly juicy and clean.

New machine day at The Glade Cafe, Rogerstone.

We’ve just installed the new-model Sanremo Zoe. It’s a great-looking machine with the performance to match.

Simple to use, reliable and built for a busy café environment. A cracking addition to The Glade and now all set up and ready for service.

Down tools. Head to the beach. Spend some proper time together.

A summer evening at Jackson’s Bay with the best team around.

We’re biased, of course.

WHOLESALE HIGHLIGHT - THE COFFEE HUB, CWMCARN

In the heart of Cwmcarn, Kelly & Becky have created the kind of place that reminds us why independent coffee shops matter.

Cwmcarn is a small Valleys village shaped by its industrial past. Built on community, graft and people looking out for one another. The landscape may have changed, but that spirit is still very much alive.

The Coffee Hub feels part of it.

Kelly & Becky are infectious, warm, funny and full of character. They’ve created somewhere that’s unmistakably theirs: welcoming, a little quirky, and serving seriously good specialty coffee without ever making it feel complicated.

Good coffee. Good people. Something positive in the community.

This week in the roastery.

Fresh arrivals. Careful roasting. Quality checks. Packing orders. The quiet work that happens before a coffee ever reaches your cup.

We’re excited to introduce Buzira. A washed Uganda with notes of marmalade, stonefruit and chocolate. Bright, balanced and beautifully clean.

We believe great coffee comes from doing the simple things exceptionally well. Sourcing with intention. Roasting with precision. Designing with clarity. Never adding complexity for the sake of it.

It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what matters, consistently.

Buzira is available now.
