Roaster notes
Meselech Tube has been farming coffee in Sidamo since the 1990s on her family’s Shantaweyne Farm. She supports her six children with the coffee business, with three working alongside her. Her farm is intercropped with banana, avocado, mango, and timber trees. She selectively handpicks and anaerobically ferments coffee, drying it on raised beds for 2-3 weeks. Best brewed as an espresso, we think this coffee tastes like cola bottles, honeydew melon, and pear.
Roaster
Redemption Roasters live up to their name. As the world's first prison based coffee roastery, they're committed to using coffee to help reduce reoffending in the UK. Their mission: they believe great coffee can come from people and places you wouldn't expect. At their roastery HQ in HMP The Mount in London, they train offenders in coffee industry skills with the aim of reducing reoffending in the UK. The coffee they work with is also exceptional: seasonal speciality only, sourced ethically. Each coffee they roast has a strong story too: from collectives working together to negotiate a fair price, to female-only growers challenging gender inequality. They partner with producers who are working hard to make a difference in their communities. The end result is a brew that’s helping raising the bar for all involved.
