Roaster notes
Just like the women of La Morena, Switch Up, the charity that we will donate £1 of every kilo sold to, is breaking the cycles that trap their community. For the farmers, they turn poverty to prosperity, and for Switch Up, cycles of crime and gangs are turned into community stewardship and hope.

200 Degrees Coffee's aim is simple, they want everyone to drink better coffee. They ship only the finest green beans from Rainforest Alliance farms back to the UK where they're roasted at 200°C to give a full bodied, smoother taste, hence the name. 200 Degrees Coffee was founded by Rob and Tom, who met while studying engineering at the University of Nottingham. The pair founded the company in 2012 in response to their frustrations with the standard of coffee and service from suppliers. Fast forward to today and they've built a veritable coffee empire, comprising of over 20 distinct coffee shops and 7 barista schools, all dotted across the midlands and north of England. Take your coffee experience up several degrees with their exceptional beans.
