Artisan Roast
Hand roast to order in small batches which keeps the coffee as fresh as possible. Their beans come from estates, co-operatives or collectives from Africa, Asia and America and they pride themselves on paying more than the fair trade base rate. We love using their beans in our cafe where each cup is freshly ground to order. You can also buy their beans from us to enjoy at home.
