What details should I know about the coffee?

This coffee is sourced from trusted producers and provides a unique experience. You can expect specific flavor notes and details about its origin, processing method, and recommendations for brewing methods.

Can you tell me more about the coffee's story?

Our coffee selection rotates seasonally to provide fresh, unique flavors. The process involves collaboration with expert partners, and it emphasizes sustainability and innovation in coffee production.

What is the roast type?

We don't label our coffee as espresso or filter. Instead, each coffee gets a unique roasting profile to bring out the best flavors from its origin, farm, and milling method. We focus on the coffee experience rather than specific roast types.

What is the 'Subscribe & Save' option?

You can subscribe to receive coffee in 250g or 1kg bags, choosing from options like George Street Blend, Donna Blend, Roaster's Choice Single Origin, or Decaf. Save up to 20% with free, letterbox-friendly delivery in the UK. You can change, skip, or cancel anytime.

What does Kiss the Hippo do to care for the environment?

All our coffees are ethically sourced from trusted producers, and roasted sustainably at London's first carbon-negative coffee roastery. We pay more than twice the fair trade price, contribute to international initiatives, and plant trees to absorb more carbon than we produce.

What are the notes for Kiss the Hippo's coffee?

Our professional tasters test each coffee weekly to ensure consistent quality and flavor. Our coffee is roasted and packaged in nitrogen gas-flushed bags, keeping it fresh for over a month. Your coffee will always come from the freshest roast available.
