Speciality Coffee
Our signature coffee uses a carefully selected organic blend with distinctive fruity notes. Sourced through direct farmer partnerships and roasted by Kiss The Hippo in London, it delivers exceptional quality in milk or black. The coffee meets speciality grading standards (80+/100) and pairs perfectly with our unhomogenised Trink Dairy milk.
