Murmuration coffee
A Roaster We Trust
Our good friend Dom launched Murmuration Coffee with the ethos of celebrating unity and friendship in the natural world. Dom is passionate about sharing the hard work the farmers put into each and every coffee, and uses his expertise to draw out the natural sweetness of the coffee. We're pumped to feature his epic Gesha coffee in the box – look out for content on our socials and website all about Murmuration and this excellent coffee.
It's this kind of care and craft that makes Murmuration exactly the kind of independent UK roaster we love to showcase in our specialty coffee subscription boxes. Every coffee we feature is chosen for the story behind it as much as what's in the cup – and this one is a particularly special addition to the RISE lineup.
Gelana Gesha
Dom's expertly roasted Ethiopian Gelana Gesha. Gesha (or "Geisha") coffee is widely regarded as some of the best coffee in the world, and we are thrilled to feature this beauty in our box. Farm owner Israel owns a number of farms, mills and washing stations in Ethiopia and reinvests a percentage of revenue back into small holding coffee farmers. This coffee is produced on Israel's private Gelana farm in the Yirgacheffe region – a very labour intensive operation with 500 raised beds, 48 permanent staff and around 500 members of temporary staff during harvest. The farm is fairly high tech, and acts as a starting point for many of Israel's new variety experiments. For more info on Gesha coffees and why they're so exceptional, head to our blog.
Roaster Dom is a brilliant guy and exceptional roaster, with a passion for showcasing the best of the natural world. We love his Gelana Gesha and his Social Espresso below – a great all rounder and a house favourite!
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 exceptional single-origin producers like Murmuration Coffee to standout roasters 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.
