Roaster's note:
After months of research and meeting coffee farmer RiSE founders Alice and Ben found the perfect house coffee. Our Ugandan speciality coffee gives back 1% of all sales revenue to coffee farmers to help educate their children in coffee growing communities and help prevent child labour. This is the perfect coffee to fit your morning caffeine needs. It is bold, smooth, delicious and planet friendly. Unusually it is a blend of 75% washed and 25% natural coffee which gives it a smooth but juicy flavour. All our coffee is hand roasted weekly, on a 12kg Geisen, in Brixton.
A versatile coffee suitable for espresso and filter brewing. We like it best as a V60!
