OUR COFFEE & TEA
We serve ORIGIN COFFEE, freshly roasted to order in Helston, Cornwall.
Origin trade directly with coffee farmers, to provide traceable, sustainable speciality coffee, and guarantee farmers, workers and the environment a fair deal.
Each year they visit coffee growing communities themselves, to build direct and cement relationships with farms they want to buy from; farms that are not only producing to notch beans, but are also investing in their workers and their families.
Some have built schools for their workers' children, while another has built a bakery for their employee's wives to bake bread and sell it at the market, keeping their own profits.
Origin invested in the world's first environmentally friendly coffee roaster, and spend a long time perfecting the roasting of the beans, to bring out their natural flavours and sweetness.
The resulting coffee is really outstanding, as we hope you'll agree when you try our range, from Espresso to Flat White to Mocha!
We also sell bags of Origin coffee beans in the shop and online, for you to continue enjoying at home.
Our tea is loose-leaf TREGOTHNAN TEA, the only tea that is grown in England!
