Dear Green Coffee Roasters

The word is out! Glasgow Coffee Festival 2025… let’s be having you! 🥳

We're excited to launch an exceptional coffee duo - Rise + Rest. This coffee duo features one coffee, a Pink Bourbon coffee from Juan Camillo Castiblanco of the El Carmen cooperative in El Pedregal, Huila, Colombia. The difference between the two coffees is the caffeine content. 'Rest' has undergone decaffeination of its 'Rise' counterpart. Not only is the name an obvious reference to the caffeine hit from Rise, and the decaf cosy vibes of Rest, but it also cleverly references two important coffee processes... rate of rise, and resting coffee after roasting. Intrigued and want to know more about these terms? Learn more in our blog post: https://lnkd.in/gKQKgTRc #specialitycoffee #coffee

BIG BIG BIG NEWS! WE WON! We are the Roast Magazine Micro ROASTER OF THE YEAR winners! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Excuse us while we float around on cloud nine for a couple of days before really knowing what to write here! The truth is, we’re speechless! ☺️ Just when we thought we couldn’t be prouder! Boom! Here we are! Recognised by Roast Magazine for our achievements, our mission, our commitment to progress, and of course our excellence in coffee roasting! For a wee Scottish roastery this is mega!!!! The first roastery outside of the US to make the grade! We’re ecstatic and we’re incredibly grateful to the team at Roast Magazine for this accolade! 🙏 Roast Mag has been part of our journey since day one! We referred to back copies of mags to research setting up our roastery, way back in 2010ish… let’s face it, there was little else in the way of resources available back then! We have subscribed to and learned from this publication ever since. To be recognised by this institution in our industry really is mind-blowing! We still can’t believe it! 💚 You gotta be in it to win in and when we applied for this award we thought we would learn from the process, what could we possibly have to lose?! Absolutely nothing it seems! Thank you to the brilliant Roast Mag team, to the awesome Dear Green team, to our incredible customers and supporters, and to the coffee producers who we wouldn’t be here without. We’re incredibly humbled and absolutely delighted! 🥳 Head on over to roastmagazine.com to read the full article.
