About Us
Coffee

Coffee
We carefully source our beans from a revolving list of independent, UK small batch roasters who go the extra mile to purchase sustainable coffee and reduce CO2 footprints whilst roasting to achieve interesting flavour profiles from seasonal coffee crops. We are currently working with Climpson & Sons, a long established family business based in London
Retail

We have a range of cards and gifts from local artist Bewilderbeest & a range of chocolates and dragees from Tosier, one of only a handful of ethically sourced bean to bar producers in the UK, based here in Ipswich. We also sell retail packs of Joe's Tea, and Climpson & Sons coffee
