We really love what we do - it gives us a real buzz to be part of so many people’s day. We feel super lucky to roast our coffee in West Sussex. We love the local community and the sea is just a mile down the road + we often follow deliveries with a visit to the beach for brisk walk or a swim.
We get real joy from researching the farms and beans to find the best coffee to bring into the roastery.
We use small importers who have often visited the locations, walked and talked with the farmers and are active in helping to ensure better working conditions and a fair price for the coffee beans.
The ideal microclimate, altitude, soil and surrounding vegetation is not easy to come by or maintain for the varieties of coffee we love to drink. We really feel it’s important these farmers and the beautiful land they are work are treated with masses of respect. Most of us, coffee lovers only spend a short while with our coffee but these guys, they dedicate their life to the coffee bean.
