We got three stars. ⭐
On The Rocks, our wh**ky-barrel-aged Colombian, has been awarded a Great Taste 3-Star. That's the top rating the Guild of Fine Food gives.
Great Taste judges everything blind, with a rotating panel drawn from over 500 food and drink experts. No label, no brand name, no idea who made it. So this isn't us marking our own homework.
Some of what they wrote:
"Each sip inspires another; there is nothing cloying about this coffee."
"The wh**ky notes are restrained and produce a subtlety that complements the coffee rather than dominates."
That's the bit Kev spent the longest getting right, so it landed well round here.
And one we were especially pleased about, because we've been telling people it for years:
"The wh**ky notes persist delightfully even with milk added, which really amplifies the crème brûlée notes."
So we'd recommend to put milk in it!
That's really what we're here to do: make coffee we'd be happy to hand you. To give you the best coffee experience. One coffee got the stars, but the same care goes into every bag. Same single-origin Colombian, same 28 patient days over oak wh**ky barrels, same founder (Coffee Kev) who can't leave a roast profile alone until it's exactly right.
One exceptional coffee. One great achievement. One roastery that has always done things a little differently.
Before anyone asks: it's wh**ky-infused, not alcoholic. The beans draw the flavour out of the wood, so you get all the warmth of the barrel and none of the units. 😉
220g, 500g and 1kg, from £9.50, whole bean or ground. Roasted to order here in Shrewsbury and out the door within five days.
