Unveiling the Cupping Scores of Our Speciality Coffees!

Ever wondered what those numbers alongside your favourite coffees mean? Known as 'cupping scores', these ratings play a crucial role in the world of coffee. They're not just arbitrary numbers but a testament to the quality of the coffee beans you're about to savour. Let's dive in!

What are Cupping Scores?

Cupping scores are ratings given by coffee professionals to assess the quality of coffee beans. The beans undergo a rigorous evaluation process, focusing on aspects like aroma, flavour, aftertaste, acidity, body, balance, and much more. The scoring scale ranges from 0 to 100, and coffees scoring 80 or above earn the honour of being tagged 'speciality' coffees - the best of the best!

We're beyond thrilled to share with you the cupping scores for some of our own fabulous coffees!
