New Recyclable Bags

From April 30 we’re transitioning from compostable to recyclable coffee bag materials. You’ll be receiving an interim design as the new bags are still in transit.

Compostable plastics sound like the perfect solution to the problem of single-use packaging, however, the infrastructure for such is still in its infancy, meaning people and processing facilities in the UK are unprepared to handle compostable plastics.

Story

The combination of the high altitude of the farm, rich volcanic soil and canopy shaded coffee trees creates the perfect environment for a delicious cup; slow ripening of the coffee fruit in a protected low wind environment that is full of nutrients is exactly what a great coffee needs. After nine months of growth, the coffee is hand-picked where it undergoes its first of five levels of sorting, selecting only perfectly ripe cherries. Fernando’s incredible attention to detail in the processing of the coffee is reflected in the vibrancy of the flavours and the strong structure of the cup. Fernando has been growing speciality coffee at the farm for 25 years, winning the prestigious Cup of Excellence six times.

    Strawberry domination

    Loved the interesting fruit hitting quite sour but added dimension perhaps with quite a sweetness coming also. Prefer a couple of others of the range but worth a try and would buy again definitely interesting.

    great for aeropress

    I recently enjoyed the El Salvador coffee from Fernando Lima, and it has a nice balance of strawberry and dark chocolate flavours. It’s a pleasant cup that highlights the care put into its production. Worth trying if you enjoy fruity coffees!
