3 Blue Box. Harvey Butt, co-founder (with his father Jon) of Blue Coffee Box says
“great coffee is like great wine or champagne. With the right climate, altitude, soil, land-

scape, processing and storing, the taste can be quite amazing.” They offer specialty
Arabica coffee chosen from 22 countries, hand-roasted in the UK

and delivered in a slim, letterbox friendly box accompanied by origin and tasting notes.
The ethically sourced gourmet coffee beans travel to the UK and are then hand-roasted
weekly by over 300 of the UK's artisan roasters. £16.99 pm for 3 x 8oz bags.

4 Dog & Hat sells coffee from more than 50 national and international coffee roasters
and is SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) certified. Dog & Hat only chooses to work with

coffee roasters whose beans are ethically sourced. This means complete traceability for
the beans they use and a fair deal for the farming communities that grow them. £17 pm for
2 x 250g.

5 Union Coffee works individually with each coffee farm, discussing and solving issues,

from coffee agronomy to worker’s wages and quality of life. The hand-roasted specialty
coffees come from Union Coffee’s small-batch roasters in East London. In addition to their
most popular coffees, they are always on the lookout for new Single Origin coffees and

rare Microlot coffees. £12.99 pm for 2 x 200g.

6 Pact Coffee only sells Arabica beans, as opposed to Robusta beans because only the
former can only be classed as specialty coffee with a Quality Score of more than 80 from
the Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA). All their coffee is sourced through

the Direct Trade model working directly with farmers allowing Pact to buy the best coffee
and the farmers to get paid at least 25% over Fairtrade rates. Pact offers thirteen rotating
coffees and eight origins in beans or pods (with recyclable casing) daily, weekly, monthly

or at any frequency chosen by the customer. £6.95 pm for 250g or £7.95 one off
