☕ July's Coffee Reveal: From Farm to Cup to Net Zero roasters in the Midlands

This month, we're taking your taste buds on a journey from the lush, volcanic mountains of Colombia and Guatemala to the heart of the UK’s smallest county. Say hello to Tambia Coffee and Two Chimps Coffee – two exceptional roasters who not only produce top-tier coffee but are deeply rooted in sustainability, transparency, and community impact.

Tambia is not just a coffee brand, it’s a true bean-to-cup experience born from three generations of Colombian coffee farming. With seven Rainforest Alliance-certified farms across Antioquia, Huila, and the Sierra Nevada, Tambia controls every step of the process, from growing to roasting.

Their flagship coffee from Finca La Sierra, grown in rich volcanic soil at 2,000m, delivers a smooth, juicy cup brimming with notes of chocolate, red fruit, and sugar cane. Beyond taste, Tambia’s impact runs deep: through their Fundación Oro Molido, they’re providing educational opportunities to over 500 children in Colombia.

Why we love it: Traceable, sustainable, and incredibly flavourful... Tambia represents everything we stand for at RISE.

Their Guatemalan coffee is grown by smallholders like Francisco Nájera, who supports his community with a coffee tree nursery while improving coffee quality through a Rainforest Alliance-certified wet mill. Expect a clean, smooth brew with comforting notes of milk chocolate, vanilla, and crisp apple.

Why we love it: Fun, flavourful, and full of heart. Two Chimps is proof that doing good and drinking great coffee go hand in hand.
