We stock coffee from Kontext Coffee Company in the Wye Valley just outside Monmouth which is supplied to us in a closed loop system. We buy in bulk and receive in large containers (from which we serve to you in your own containers), when empty we then return to the roastery to be refilled - no packaging at all!
Kotext Coffee Company source coffees from individual countries, that can be traced down to the farm or community level (single origin). They only select coffees that are of the highest quality (specialty coffee) and offer amazing flavor complexity. With this in mind they only work with partners who provide full records of traceability and offer price transparency to ensure a truly fair share of the price goes back to the coffee farmers.
