Union Hand-Roasted Foundation Espresso Whole Bean Coffee

Foundation is a dark roasted blend of Guatemalan, Sumatran and Ethiopian coffees - a balanced, heavy bodied coffee. Foundation is a 'no holds barred' Arabica blend echoing the dark, sweet roasts of Southern Italy and Sicily.

We hand-roast our coffee in small batches to develop delicious flavour and aroma for each individual coffee.

All our coffee is sourced according to our Union Direct Trade principles. More than just paying a fair price, Union Direct Trade means we work in partnership with farmers to improve the quality of both coffee and livelihoods longterm. We pay farmers minimum 25% above Fairtrade prices and ensure they follow our Code of Conduct covering labour laws and sustainability.

17-19g of coffee - use scales for best results.

Union Hand-Roasted

San Francisco, the 90s. The rumblings of a café culture revolution. The smell of freshly roasted coffee lingered in the air.
That aroma. It woke up an ambition in us - to bring good coffee to the world.
Fast forward to East London, today. We work with smallholder farmers around the world to source high quality coffees, then roast each batch in our vintage Probat to develop their distinctive flavours. We're now proud roasters for Britain's finest restaurants, cafés - and coffee gourmets like you.
Welcome to our union. Enjoy your brew.
Founders and coffee addicts,
