Our Coffee

So, what’s Robusta?

Most of us have heard of Arabica coffee. It’s written all over coffee menus. But its cousin, Robusta? Not so much.

And yet, Robusta makes up nearly half of the world’s coffee.

It’s always been around – just hidden away. Mostly blended into Arabica to add strength and body.

It’s been doing the heavy lifting. Without getting much of the praise.

Until now.

We go all in on Robusta – and we’re the first in the UK to bring you 100% specialty Robusta from Uganda.

Rich, satisfying, and remarkably smooth.

Farmer-owned. And proud of it.

Our coffee is the first in the UK to be owned by a smallholder coffee farmer.

We grow our coffee alongside fellow smallholder farmers, using specialty techniques – and some we’ve developed ourselves – to unlock Robusta’s best.

Here’s what that means for you:

Flavour
Quality Robusta has its own vibe — nutty, nuanced, and remarkably smooth.

Think nutty, cocoa-rich, buttered toast.
Comforting. Satisfying.
Not bitter. Not sharp.
More chocolate than fruit.
And very easy to drink.

Strength
Robusta contains around twice the caffeine of Arabica. Coffee with a natural kick.

Climate resilient
Robusta is… well… robust. More resistant to climate challenges and uses less land than Arabica.

You might say — Robusta is the future.
