What Kross Coffee Roasters says about this coffee
Lighthouse is my interpretation of espresso. It’s what I want when I walk into a shop and order one: a clean, juicy cup with vibrancy in balance, a silky mouthfeel and plenty of sweetness. Bitterness is there too, but in a positive way, with good-quality cocoa notes. Round, comforting and full. The kind of coffee you finish and think, “I’ve just had a great cup.”
It’s a medium roast with a relatively short roast time. How short depends on the roaster, but the aim is the same: give each coffee exactly what it needs and nothing more, so it keeps the character of its terroir and processing.
The current blend is a washed Colombia, a washed El Salvador and a small amount of washed Ethiopia. We believe in blending for espresso, and sometimes for filter when we want real balance. It’s an art: understanding how coffees complement each other until the cup has harmony. That’s the comfort most people look for in a coffee.

What the roaster says about where it came from
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.

A further 2 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
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.
