Clifton Coffee

About This Coffee

This naturally processed Pink Bourbon coffee undergoes anaerobic fermentation in sealed tanks with CO2 injection for 200 hours at a constant temperature of 18°C. A mosto from previous Pink Bourbon cherries is added into the fermenting tanks, along with a live culture obtained by isolating microorganisms of plants that grow on the farm. The cherries are collected at 95% ripe and 5% semi-ripe. The first stage of drying happens on African beds inside polytunnels for approximately 20 days until the cherries reach 25% humidity at a maximum temperature of 40°C. The cherries then dry under partial shade inside polytunnels for around 5 more days.

Clifton Coffee

James Fisher founded Clifton Coffee in Bristol in 2001, initially servicing espresso machines before Ed Buston joined and expanded the business into wholesale. Several of their earliest multi site customers in Bristol remain clients over two decades later. In 2013, Clifton invested in an in house production roastery and a training facility that was among the first of its kind in the UK. By 2022, it had become Bristol's largest roasted coffee wholesaler, supplying around 850 customers including specialty shops, Michelin starred restaurants, and five star hotels across the UK, EU, and Middle East. Ninety percent of the coffee is bought directly from origin through the company's own sourcing relationships. Clifton achieved B Corporation certification in 2023 and holds SCA Premier Campus status.
