Responsibly sourced...

All of our coffees are 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified. The Rainforest Alliance is an international, non-profit organisation, working to build a powerful alliance to protect forests, improve the livelihoods of farmers and forest communities, promote their human rights, and help them to mitigate and adapt to the ongoing climate crisis. Keep an eye out for the frog certification seal on our packs which symbolises the Rainforest Alliance mission of people and nature thriving together. The seal means that our certified coffee is produced using methods that support the three pillars of sustainability: social, economic and environmental. Independent, third-party auditors - critical to the integrity of the certification - evaluate coffee farmers against requirements in all three areas before awarding certification.

Our Packaging

Our Packaging

Every year, hundreds of thousands of aluminium capsules, coffee pouches, and sachets end up in landfill and incinerators across the UK, all because they’re difficult to recycle. That’s why we’ve updated our packaging – to make doing the right thing, the easy thing.

All our coffee beans and ground packaging are now being phased into in a mono PP material (mono poly propylene). This flexible plastic not only keeps coffee fresher for longer, it’s also 100% recyclable. You just need to drop it off at a flexible plastic collection point – available at most large supermarkets across the UK.

Delivered to your door

It's not just our coffee that's sustainable. We use 100% recycled cardboard and water-based inks that are much gentler on the environment than traditional plastisol inks.

When you're finished with your delivery box, simply recycle it with all of your other household paper and cardboards.
