Accessibility is at the heart of what we do here so it was important for us to offer this darker roast profile. We want as many people as possible to enjoy crazy-good quality coffee from the incredible female producers that we work with and truth is, most people are accustomed to more traditional coffee flavours in fact 90% of all the coffee drinks consumed in the UK are milk-based. A more developed coffee is generally the best option for milk-based drinks as lighter roast flavour profiles tend to get lost or have too much acidity. So, everyone raise an eyebrow to our Goth Queen, she got you.
Mió is a female-led powerhouse from Monte Santo de Minas, Brazil, run by Cris Gerbasi, Ana Luiza, and Renata Parisi. By overseeing every step of the supply chain—from satellite-tracked harvests to direct importing—Mió makes "direct trade" a reality. Their state-of-the-art farm uses technology to ensure 100% traceability, environmental sustainability, and a higher quality of life for their workers.
Meet La Morena, a coffee that’s doing more than just tasting incredible.
Grown by a collective of women producers in the highlands of Huehuetenango and Baja Verapaz, Guatemala, this lot is all about resilience, skill, and independence. Through the Volcafe Way program (run by our importing partners), these producers are not only improving quality and yield, but they’re building sustainable businesses and reshaping what leadership looks like in coffee.
In the cup, expect a rich, full-bodied profile with notes of chocolate, cherry, and brown sugar.
But this coffee is bigger than flavour. It’s about access, education, and economic empowerment. It’s about women claiming space, sharing knowledge, and investing back into their farms and communities.
Our favourite espresso recipe for OMGoth at the roastery:
This roast was developed to highlight toffee sweetness, rich chocolate, and big body. Expect low acidity, a lot of sweetness and a smooth buttery mouthfeel. Will work amazing in milky drinks or as a straight-up big bold espresso, using the brew recipe 17g in/36g out in 26-28 seconds.
