Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.

How it sits among natural coffees

How often roasters use each flavour family to describe natural coffees: 731 of 1,183 carry notes. The dashed outline is the whole catalogue. These are the roasters’ own words, grouped — not our tasting, and not a measurement.

Beansmith's coffee roastery describe this coffee as fruity, caramel and sweet, chocolate. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across natural coffees; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

Every family the roaster names is a common one for natural coffees, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

Not stated

country, farm or estate, producer, variety, 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.

Tasting notes

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.
