We've had so many good coffees from Brazil this year and we're excited to be releasing the last of the crop to our Trust range. Paulo Lourenco is a new producer for us based just south of Minas, a region we know well. He's been working hard to sell more of his coffee on the specialty market and this lot was worthy of the quality premiums we always pay for high-quality Brazilian coffee. In his first year, he planted 1,000 trees, now he has over 15,000 and considers coffee his main source of income.
You'll love this if you like full-bodied, rich coffee that cuts through milk. It's packed full of flavours we know and love: toasted hazelnuts and chocolate praline - it's moreish to say the least.

Great coffee with provenance you can think of and be proud when you drink it. Roasted in our barn in Cornwall's rural wilds.

This is the second single varietal micro-lot that we have bought from Finca Bethania. This is the naturally processed lot - if you're game for the full taste experience then we highly recommend buying this alongside the honey version. Same farm, same varietal, different processing method. 

All of the coffees we tasted at the Cafetos micro mill (which processes for other local farms as well as their own) were high quality and there were lots of micro lots available, but it felt natural to buy something from Bethania itself. The farm belonged to Martha and Ana's Farther before the political strife forced his family to leave the country. In 2007 the sisters returned to run the farm themselves - they’ve been improving quality every year since then.

Maracatura is a hybrid varietal with praised cup characteristics and high yields, given the quality. This makes it an ideal choice for growers who want to improve quality without risking their crops.

Farm: Finca Bethania
Region: Nueva Segovia
Taste: Strawberry and cream sweets. Creamy and heavy mouthfeel

Finca Bethania

Traceable down to the farm, organically grown and single varietal. Not only that, but the varietal is Mundo Novo, a natural hybrid first found in Brazil and to our knowledge, never grown in Ethiopia.

Producer: Israel Degfa
Farm: Debeka
Region:Borena, Oromia

Israel has an incredible reputation for the coffee he produces and the social and educational projects he runs within the community. Recently, he has been working with Kamba importers to experiment with processing techniques, machinery and growing new coffee varietals. 

Back in 2018 he travelled to Brazil and was gifted 2kg of Mundo Novo seeds on his travels. This coffee is the first batch he's exported from growing these seeds. It's quite incredible... to say the least. We've never tasted Mundo Novo like this - showing us just how much terroir makes a difference. 

Debeka Farm

Colombian coffee is among the most recognisable and dynamic in the world, with multiple growing regions whose distinct yet consistently crowd-pleasing profiles reflect the various microclimates that exist in this large country.

The 'Gran Galope' is a combination lot from approximately 30 smallholder farms, each with comparable cup characteristics and score. This coffee is part of a sourcing model called 'stratified buying', which allows for the entire harvest to be purchased, rather than just a small percentage of the highest-scoring lots. This is a key part of true sustainability.

Gran Galope

Our relationship with this group of family-focused, small scale farmers is what we're most proud of.  Now into our 5th year of Buying direct, we can confidently say the model is working. This year the coffees are exceptional and the farmers were beyond excited to show us their produce. 

Buying direct means we have full transparency of costs and know everyone is happy and well rewarded. It's as simple as that. We hope our work with the group will continue to help them stand out to the world and be known as producers capable of coffees that can take your breath away. This one certainly is.   

The natural processing and low acidity of this coffee means you get lots of punch and sweetness in the espresso. It works really well in all milk-based drinks including dairy-free. If you like easy-drinking, chocolatey coffees then this one is for you.

Long gone are the days of subpar decaf. This one's so good we don't think you'd know it was decaffeinated if it wasn't on the label. Taste wise, expect a well-rounded coffee with good sweetness and a sort of Horlicks character that makes that 'after dinner coffee' oh so dreamy.

This decaf is from Cauca, Colombia. It's decaffeinated using alcohol produced locally and derived from sugar cane, this is our favourite way of decaffeination.

We're super excited to launch our coffee collaboration with Jubilee Pool, ahead of it's reopening this summer and new geothermal heated spa this coming autumn.

Jubilee Pool is an art deco seawater lido in Penzance. A central feature of the Penzance community for over 50 years, operating as a communal social enterprise whereby all profits are used to offset the pool’s future operation for the communities benefit. The lido is also home to a beautiful cafe - we are their proud supplier of coffee.

We've teamed up to create a bag of coffee together, whereby we're donating 50p from every bag sold back to the Jubilee Pool foundation. Through buying this coffee, you're supporting the upkeep of this special place for generations to come.

Las Brisas has now sold out. We're working hard to introduce the next coffee in our spotlight series and look forward to sharing this with you. Thank you for your support!*

This is the first coffee in our spotlight series and it hails from a small municipality called Las Brisas, in the well known growing region of Tolima, Colombia. 7 producers have contributed to this outstanding lot. We know the gate price (the price the farmer receives) was 27.5% higher than the market price and the cup quality is excellent. Expect a very sweet, slightly citric character, with deep notes of orange, cocoa, and peach. 

This coffee was shipped under sail power from the port of Santa Marta, Colombia and unloaded within a few miles of our roastery in Falmouth - reducing transit emissions by thousands of kgs of CO2e. To make this possible, we partnered with New Dawn Traders and The Blue Schooner company, who sailed over 7,500 nautical miles with a carbon footprint that is close to zero - a radical model of trade, which puts people and planet first.
