This is a natural processed Brazilian coffee from the Sul De Minas region, sourced from smallholder farmers at 1000-1300 meters altitude. The coffee is part of the Samba reserve project through Cofinet, which brings together multiple small holder farms producing in smaller volumes. This medium roast features flavor notes of orchard fruit, berry, and milk chocolate with medium to soft acidity, fruit and caramel sweetness, and a full body. The coffee undergoes wild/ambient fermentation and is described as very permeable and easy to brew, working well across all brew methods but excelling particularly as espresso or milk-based drinks.
Papercup Coffee has been a fixture on Great Western Road in Glasgow's west end since 2012. The roastery sits inside Arch 17 at the SWG3 complex at Eastvale Place, open to the public so customers can watch the roasting process from start to finish. A second café opened in Motherwell. The mission is deliberately uncomplicated: source, roast, share great coffee. Packaging is designed for recyclability throughout, and a refill discount encourages customers to bring bags back. The range includes single origins from Ethiopia, India, and Colombia alongside the house Ritual Espresso blend.
