We’re big fans of Hard Lines in Cardiff, and wanted to bring a little piece of that action to Stockport. Our trusty Gaggia espresso machine uses their espresso beans, and you can take home some too in 250g bags, choose whole bean or ground up just right for filter. 

Origin: Rwanda

Farm: Kinini
Varietals: BM139, BM71, Bourbon, Jackson

Process: Natural

Altitude: 2000+ Masl

Tastes like: Cranberry and blackberry juice

"If you’re looking for something fruity, this is the one!

Kinini bursts with blackcurrant and cranberry, offering a big, juicy body and a rich brown-sugar finish. Its soft texture and touch of violet florals add an extra layer of elegance to the cup.

This coffee is grown in the hills surrounding Rusiga and Mbogo where the terroir is ideal for coffee cultivation. Lots from this region have won multiple ‘Cup of Excellence’ awards!

At the washing station, farmers receive agronomic guidance and support, creating a collaborative hub that encourages cooperation across their farms. Cherries are carefully dried over 48 days, turned regularly to ensure even drying, preserving their quality and achieving a perfect balance of flavour. 

Every cherry plays its part in the cup, lending the rich, nuanced character that defines this coffee."
