A huge thank you to everyone who came along to the Coffee Cart yesterday for our first morning at the Hatston slip!🌅☕️

The support was incredible and it was great to see so many familiar faces and plenty of new ones too! A special thanks to The Relic Cafe for supplying some delicious Home Bakes once again - they went down a treat 🍰

It’s going to be a busy summer and we can’t wait to get the Coffee Cart out and about more over the coming months. Keep an eye on this page for future dates and locations📍

Tomorrow I’ll also be at Tomb of the Eagles Open Day with a table of freshly roasted coffee and brewing equipment.

Thanks again for all of the support❤️

Before ➡️ After

Regular grinder maintenance plays a huge part in keeping coffee tasting its best!✅

Over time, coffee oils and fine grounds build up inside the grinder which can clog the burrs, affecting grind consistency, performance and leaving a nasty taint on the overall flavour. A clean set of burrs results in better extraction, better tasting coffee and less strain on your equipment which is a win win!🤝

We like to keep our EK43 in top shape with regular cleaning and maintenance, helping make sure you get the best possible result from our coffee every time🤩

🥃Something special has been quietly coming together behind the scenes…

We’ve teamed up with Highland Park to create an exclusive coffee blend which will be sold solely at their Visitor Centre and shop on Albert Street🛍️

The coffee has been blended to perfectly compliment the character of their outstanding whisky🙌

This release brings together beans from Brazil and Papua New Guinea. As its core, the Brazilian coffee provides the perfect foundation - bringing a smooth, chocolatey nuttiness which gives real depth. Layered with Papua New Guinea, it develops a delicious warmth and added complexity, with a subtle cherry sweetness shining through from the Brazilian🍒

🔥Available now - exclusively at Highland Park premises:

📍Albert Street Shop
📍 Visitor Centre

Today we will be at the Peedie Market, hosted by Orkney Food and Drink, alongside with the official release for our BRAND NEW Peruvian coffee - read more information below⬇️

📍Broad Street Car Park, Kirkwall
🕰️10-4pm

Sourced from the Cooperativa Agaria Frontera San Ignacio in the Cajamarca region, this washed Peruvian coffee is grown at elevations of 1350-1890 meters, producing a vibrant and expressive cup with excellent clarity.

This is a fruit-forward profile, led by crisp green apple and juicy peach sweetness. Layers of kiwi and raspberry bring a lively, slightly tart complexity, while a clean grapefruit finish adds a refreshing citrus edge that carries through the cup.

As it cools, the fruit notes become more defined, giving a bright, balanced coffee with a refined structure and a clean finish making it perfect to be enjoyed as a pour over.

Beyond the cup, the El Oso project plays an important role in supporting sustainable farming and protecting surrounding forest ecosystems, making this a coffee that not only tastes good, but does good too.

Filter coffee gets passed over far too easily👇🏼

People go straight for espresso based drinks thinking it’s the better option - but a filter coffee done right can be just as satisfying, if not more🙌

When roasted and brewed properly, it will taste clean and balanced. The thing I love about filter brewing is the coffee can speak for itself. There is no milk to block out the flavours. A slower extraction gives a cleaner, more rounded overall cup and highlights the coffees origin.

Just the coffee as it is with no added distractions🫘
