From Corbridge to Cape Town

It all started when a couple of long-time mates from opposite sides of the planet had a thought: life's too short for humdrum coffee. And so began their adventure of brewing up something special.

Meet Colin, Sarah, and Nigel. They're entrepreneurs with a wealth of experience who decided to pour their energy into creating a coffee company with a difference. Their story bridges the gap between the historic charm of Corbridge and the vibrant buzz of Cape Town.

Having been passionate about coffee for ages, creating their own brand felt like the next natural step. So, they bravely ventured into the fascinating world of coffee bean origins and the art of roasting. Enter Sarah, Colin’s wife and fellow foodie, who brought her down-to-earth expertise in all things financial and practical. Their ongoing journey is all about learning and discovering. They're not pretending to know everything; in fact, they believe you're never too old to learn something new! Join them as they explore the complexities of single-origin beans, the rituals of coffee cupping, and the magic and science of artisanal roasting. Make no mistake, though – Colin, Sarah, and Nigel might still be on a learning curve, but they're driven by passion, years of experience in building brands, and a firm belief in delivering a high-quality, distinctive product.

Way back when, Colin and Nigel first met in Cape Town, both working with the same retailer. Then it was all about cheese, but they instantly clicked over a shared love for good food and drink, and that exciting feeling of building something new. That buzz of bringing an idea to life? It's definitely in their blood.
