The families behind the beans

Generations of skill.

We work directly with farming families to grow rich, bold espresso. Then we slow roast it for intense flavour. From their hands to yours.  With only Cafédirect in between.

 

Flavour

A blend of 100% speciality Arabica beans. Rich, full-bodied.   Notes of dark chocolate and treacle. And always with a golden, velvety crema in the cup.

Dark Roast

Dark roasts have a very bold and rich chocolate flavour. This is down to the roasting rather than the bean itself.

Altitude

Up to 2,200m

Processing

Washed

Packaging

All our packaging is recyclable. Just take the bag to a recycling point in a large supermarket near you.

How to brew the perfect cup using our beans

 

Step One

Remove your portafilter from the group head and flush the group head with boiling water for a few seconds. Empty the portafilter and make sure there is no leftover coffee grounds or moisture.

Step Two

Measure out 18g coffee into the portafilter, make sure your grounds are evenly spread across the basket by tapping the edges where the majority of your coffee sits until it is level.

Step Three

Tamp the coffee using a hand tamper to firmly and evenly compress the grounds. This will force out any air pockets and create a longer extraction. Make sure the rim of your portafilter is clean as this will cause an uneven extraction.

Step 4

Lock the portafilter into the group head by twisting it from left to right until tight, then place your cup underneath.
