Components:

Expect notes of Dark Chocolate, Caramel, Walnut.
The Donna Espresso is our nod towards a more traditional coffee flavour. First, we find coffees that have the inherent characteristics of deep chocolate, with low acidity and lots of body. We then roast a little darker than our other coffees, to the point where the natural sugars are browned to a dark caramel quality. Donna tastes robust and strong, but still allows the unique characteristics of our seasonal coffees to shine through.
To craft the newest chapter of Donna, we sourced coffees from two distinct regions, blending flavours from opposite sides of the globe. The foundation of this blend—60%—is Uganda Bujuku, offering a robust and earthy depth. Complementing it is 40% Brazil, bringing smooth notes of caramel and nutty sweetness. Together, they create a bold profile with deep notes of dark chocolate, caramel, and walnut, offering a rich, full-bodied cup with just a touch of acidity. It’s a flavour journey that’s both balanced and indulgent—perfect for any coffee lover.
We don’t label our coffee as espresso or filter. Instead, for each coffee we create a unique roasting profile, designed to bring out the best flavours from its origin, farm and milling method. That’s why, instead, we label our coffee based on the experience it brings to the cup.

Every single one of our coffees is ethically sourced from trusted producers, then sustainably roasted at London’s first carbon negative coffee roastery.
We pay over twice the fair trade price for our coffee, then give back by contributing to a number of international initiatives – not to mention by planting trees to ensure we soak up more carbon than we produce.
Learn more about how we give back, and download our inaugural impact report, here.
All of our coffees are tested weekly by our professional tasters to ensure quality and delicious flavour. They’re our Quality Control team, and they taste, evaluate, and refine every single one of our coffees, every single day.
Our coffee is roasted and packaged in state-of-the-art nitrogen gas-flushed bags, to help keep it at peak quality for over a month. Your coffee order will come from the freshest possible roast, and will always have weeks’ worth of peak freshness left in it.
We dispatch Monday to Friday from our roastery. You will receive the most recent roast.

It’s incredible. The best coffee I’ve ever had at home by a looong way!

We first met you at the end of October 2018 in Richmond, and we fell in love with you. Now we‘re back in Germany and we still love and buy your great coffee!
– Ricarda and Frank
I’m no longer drinking caffeine due to health issues, and had resigned myself to the fact that coffee will never taste the same again – your decaf actually regained my faith in coffee!
