Every figure here is counted from this roaster’s own listings, not from a profile they filled in. We hold no review scores and no verified certifications for any roaster, and we do not collect them. How we count this

How Tropic Coffee Ltd compares

£33.80/kgtheir median, across 27 priced coffees
£30.00 – £36.56where the middle 80% of their range sits
-13%against the median of their own market, £39.00/kg
£10.00£40.00 per kilo

Every priced coffee they sell is a tick. The solid line is their median, the dashed line the median of their market. A roaster above the catalogue is not overcharging and one below is not better value — we hold no quality signal of any kind, so a price difference is only a price difference.

Often an accountant’s address rather than the roastery, so this is where the company is registered and not necessarily where the coffee is roasted.

From the public company register, matched to this roaster by name and address, and shown only where that match is confirmed — a probable match shows nothing at all. We have not checked these facts ourselves beyond the match; the linked entry is the authority. If this is your business and something here is wrong, correcting the register will correct this page.
