Tasting Notes & Stories

We've another fan-favourite that goes by the name of Fuglen, from Oslo and Tokyo. For a consecutive month we re-visit Spain, this time to Madrid for TOMA. Back to Netherlands we also go, over to Rotterdam's Manhatten, and United Kingdom's Milkshed of Brighton completes the quartet.

We return to three of our personal all-time favourites, each absolutely burgeoning their respective national speciality coffee scenes. Barcelona's Nomad, Paris' Kawa Coffee and Amsterdam's Uncommon are joined by one of London's hidden gems, 15grams.

For February we return to Berlin with one of our favourites. Joining The Barn we've two new first-features for GUSTATORY; say hello to Bern's Drip of Switzerland and Stjordal's Langora of Norway. Completing the set we've Stafford's Hasbean of United Kingdom.

New year, same us. Swinging into 2023 with a fourtet of British roasters due to the festive holiday schedule, it's top drawer coffees as standard with Kiss The Hippo, Yallah, Dear Green and Round Hill all featuring.

With the festive period on the way, Sweden's GRINGO complement Netherlands' LOT61, United Kingdom's Sweven and Sanctuary. A mixture of firm-favourites and new features.

With A Matter Of Concrete making a lot of noise in the coffee industry at the moment - for very good reason -, we pair the Netherlands' roasters with Spain's equally impressive SlowMov, Germany's Fjord and United Kingdom's Redemption.

Three returning fan-favourites mark October, with Spain's Three Marks, Denmark's Coffee Collective and Italy's Gardelli all joined by debutant featuring Campbell & Syme of United Kingdom.

Proudly featuring an Asian roastery for our very first time, alongside Japan's Fuglen, Germany's Roststatte, Netherlands' DAK and United Kingdom's Carthweel all pack their punch.
