Heroes is our very first blend, and it’s all about bright, fruity flavours that really stand out. Think of a juicy mix of ripe raspberries and sweet currants, with just a hint of vanilla to keep things smooth. It’s a coffee that’s both refreshing and full of character - designed to be enjoyed equally by those who love coffee black and those who prefer a splash of milk.

Spotlight on Rwanda

Horizon Supreme Natural Microlot

Rwanda is often referred to as the Land of a Thousand Hills. It is a rising star in the world of specialty coffee. With high altitude, volcanic soil and the sort of dedication to quality processing that impresses, it is the ideal origin for vibrant and distinctive micro lots. The producers have a focus on working to better their equipment and processing techniques and they work together for continual improvement and development.

We have chosen the Horizon Supreme for our Heroes blend because it is a complex natural process coffee with notes of berry, plum and a boozy character. This is a full bodied coffee that bring some complex flavours and acidity. We have always thought of Heroes as bringing together many fabulous coffees that each shine on their own (these are our Heroes) and together they sing.

Sourcing partner
We appreciate working with coffee importers like H.A. Bennetts who have strong relationships around the world and who believe that by doing the right thing they can create coffee that is consistently better.

How long will my coffee stay fresh? How should I store my coffee?

Our blends and espresso roasts taste best if you start using the coffee around 12 days after it is roasted (check the roast date stamp on every bag), and finish it up in around 2 or 3 weeks. We enjoy our filter roasts from a few days after they are roasted. Store your coffee away from light and heat, and keep the bag sealed tight.
