The Truth is our house blend and a timeless classic. We work with two outstanding producers to create a blend that is consistent, balanced, sweet and works great with milk. Our focus is on building long-term and sustainable relationships with our entire supply chain in order to ensure consistency, traceability and great quality. As part of our seasonal adjustments to maintain freshness, we update the components of The Truth blend annually. It rotates from a Brazil/Peru blend to a Brazil/Honduras blend every 6 months.
Brazil Sertaozinho Village:
Unlike the large-scale farms Brazil is known for, this coffee comes from a close-knit group of over 100 smallholders, each farming just 1–2 hectares. In a country dominated by massive mega-farms that undercut the small guys, we wanted to source Brazilian coffee in a way that supports smaller producers and strengthens local communities – and this component is exactly that. In the hills surrounding the village, coffee is carried down steep slopes to shared patios and driveways where families and neighbours work together to dry and sort the harvest. It’s a true community effort. The result is a sweet, silky coffee that adds a syrupy smoothness to the blend and a story we’re proud to be part of.
Peru Velo De Novia
The Peruvian element is from the Jaen region of Peru, where different elevations create a diversity of micro-climates. We bought this coffee from Caravela coffee – an importer dedicated to sourcing high-quality coffees from Latin America. They offer a hands-on approach, with boots on the ground at origin; providing education and support to producers. 20 small-scale coffee growers contribute green coffee to the Velo De Novia community blend. This coffee delivers a sweetness and a red fruit juiciness that really rounds off the finish on the palate.
