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.

Rich coffee
Mid march - received beans roasted at the end of December. Not super fresh but better than most of the other fresh roast coffee brands here. Coffee is quite strong and rich. YET mellow once you add milk. Nice option

favourite coffee
I have tried many coffee beans and have settled on this one. Quite strong but not bitter. I buy it 1kg at a time and set the grinder to fine. Used also on espresso setting.

Great blend
Love these beans, prefer them to the Revelation beans from Union which are similar. Nice dark roast, not too bitter, they make a great espresso or 50.

burnt taste
Usually like Union coffee but this is like Costa on a bad day. Overroasted maybe? bad batch?
