Grumpy Mule Organic Sumatra Ground Coffee

Sumatra Single Origin Coffee - Discover the distinctive flavours of coffee from unique places. Each cup reflects where it's grown, capturing the character of its origin.

From the Aceh province in north-west Sumatra, with its tropical climates and fertile volcanic soil, this kick-ass coffee helps local smallholders reinvest into their farms, giving us a full body and rich, chocolatey taste.

Our expert roasting brings out these unique tastes and aromas, so you can enjoy the essence of each origin in every sip. Aceh Province is like the last wild frontier where orangutans, rhinos, elephants, and tigers still roam free.

With this coffee, you’re helping keep this incredible region thriving and wild, preserving its unique charm for generations to come.

Great coffee shouldn’t be hard to find. But frankly, it can be a right old fuss. We like to make things easier.

That’s why we’ve put in the hard work for all you coffee lovers.

We head to high altitudes to source the best crops. Then back here in Yorkshire, we get roasting with a stubborn attention to detail.

All done with our no-nonsense approach.

The result?

All our coffee is 100% Fairtrade. That means every bean you sip helps farmers handle the ups and downs of growing coffee in tricky climates and also supports them in taking care of the local environment.

Organic - More than half of our coffee range is organic-certified. We’re talking nature-friendly farming with minimal impact on the environment.

Reducing harmful emissions - We’re on a mission to cut down our greenhouse gas emissions. Our parent company, Cafédirect Group, is all in with the Science Based Targets initiative, which means our targets are solid, not just talk. They’re the only UK coffee company with a science-based plan to hit net zero by 2040. Just one of the many ways we’re working towards a greener future is by using recyclable coffee packaging.
