Dear Green Coffee
A Roaster We Trust
Dear Green have been roasting coffee in Glasgow since 2011 and are the proud organisers of the Glasgow Coffee Festival. They are a Living Wage Foundation employer and an awarded B Corporation, proudly involved in many community initiatives. We've been hoping to work with Dear Green since the early days of RISE, and we're excited for you to try their coffee.
That combination of serious roasting credentials and genuine community focus is exactly what we look for in the independent UK roasters we feature in our specialty coffee subscription boxes. Dear Green joins a growing list of B Corp and Living Wage certified roasters we're proud to champion through RISE.
Abuja Honey Processed
This organic coffee is "honey processed", which is where the bean is removed carefully from the outer fruit, but special care is taken to leave certain percentages of the mucilage on the bean during drying. As a result, the natural sugars from the remaining mucilage sweeten the final product. This coffee comes from the Capucas cooperative, who operate in the vicinity of Honduras' highest peak, Celaque Mountain. Founded in 1999 by Jose Omar Rodriguez, the cooperative serves 12 communities and benefits around 2,500 individuals through community projects.
We love this honey processed coffee – give it a try for a deliciously smooth, sweet taste.
Coffees like this are exactly why RISE Coffee Box exists. Every month, we blind taste 25-30 coffees from independent specialty coffee roasters across the UK – from B Corp and Living Wage certified roasters like Dear Green to standout names we've discovered along the way – and choose only the very best to feature in our coffee subscription boxes. If you love discovering new specialty coffee, sustainably sourced and roasted by people who genuinely care about where it comes from, a RISE coffee subscription is the easiest way to explore it all from home.
