What the roaster says about where it came from

Country

Indonesia, Nicaragua

Not stated

region, farm or estate, producer, process, variety, altitude, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Where each fact came from

Species

“Grown in the mountainous northwest of Nicaragua at altitudes above 1200 metres, this Strictly High Grown Arabica coffee develops slowly for maximum flavour.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Flavour families

“This light roast offers tropical sweetness with a hint of vanilla.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Country of origin

“Severe unseasonable rainfall in Indonesia has deeply delayed the coffee harvest and damaged local transit roads, making it incredibly difficult to get the beans out of the farms.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Roast level

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
