Green Coffee Beans

Unroasted coffee beans are generally known as "green".  They are small and hard.  They are at their best for up to 2 years after harvest - with the flavours gradually diminishing.

To ensure that your roasted coffee has the maximum flavour, purchase your coffee in the green state, store it in a dark, dry ventilated area (such as a kitchen pantry) and roast it yourself on demand so that you are drinking it when it is at its best.

Something to be aware of when purchasing green coffee beans, is that given most of them are processed in third world countries, you will find the odd stone, nail, ball bearing etc. in amongst the beans.  Most commercial roasters remove these items after roasting - as the destoning equipment is based on the weight of items and coffee is much lighter after being roasted.  We do a visual check when packaging the beans and we remove anything we see.  If we miss anything, we apologise and please understand that this is a normal element of the coffee world that most are unaware of.  It is not common, but it does happen.  Please check your coffee before it goes in the grinder.

Please see our range of coffees (including specialty coffee) from around the world below.  Each of our arabica coffees are suitable to be roasted and consumed on their own without any further blending required unless you so wish.

Our unroasted coffee beans can be purchased in several sizes of bags - 400g Samplers, 1 KG, 2 KG, 4 KG or 10 KG (in 2 x 5 KG bags) with the price reducing as the size increases.

Most can also be purchased in 20 KG lined boxes.
