Roaster notes
"The decaffeination process works by soaking the green coffee in a water bath containing ethyl acetate which is naturally derived from fermented sugar – giving the coffee its sweet taste."
Roaster
Old Spike is old in name only, their fresh approach to coffee means they’re the UK's first social enterprise, speciality coffee roastery. This means you can have your speciality coffee and help end homelessness too. 65% of their profits go towards directly supporting people experiencing homelessness. They first launched as a cafe and roastery space in London’s Peckham Rye — establishing themselves as the first speciality coffee roastery to operate as a social enterprise. Since then, they've continued to be at the forefront of using coffee as a vehicle for social change. Beyond helping closer to home, their approach to sourcing speciality grade coffee is based on the principles of direct trade, quality and seasonality. Win, win, win.
