Glasgow City FC x Dear Green

Did you know that only one in 10 young people can name a female CEO? The City Collective was created by Glasgow City FC to amplify the voices of those blazing their own trail.  Dear Green's core ethos has always been to break barriers, lift each other up, and foster true equity. We were delighted to be a founding member of The City Collective. 

We recently hosted some of the Glasgow City FC team at the roastery to collaborate on a coffee; we proposed coffees from women producers. You can read more about it on the blog.  The team chose this great coffee from the KCRS women's cooperative in Kinini, Northern Province, Rwanda.

Not only will this collaboration shine a spotlight on women producers and the great coffee they produce, but through selling and sipping their product, we will also be supporting the Glasgow City FC Foundation:  £1 from every single bag sold will go directly to the Glasgow City FC Foundation, helping to fund grassroots initiatives, promote inclusion, and inspire the next generation of girls in sport.

Whether you're a die-hard football fan, a specialty coffee lover, or just want to support a great local cause, grab a bag, brew a cup, and let’s fuel change together.

The Glasgow City FC x Dear Green collaboration highlights a unique partnership between the Glasgow-based roaster Dear Green Coffee and the KCRS women’s cooperative in Rwanda’s Northern Province. By sourcing directly from this cooperative, the project emphasizes the vital role of women in the coffee supply chain, bringing the distinct terroir of Rwanda’s high-altitude growing regions to a wider audience. Rwandan coffees are frequently celebrated for their vibrant acidity and complex sweetness, characteristics that often invite exploration through a flavor wheel to better identify specific nuances. This particular lot serves as a testament to the collaborative efforts between international roasters and local producers, showcasing the dedication required to bring high-quality beans from the Northern Province to the cup. Whether you are a seasoned enthusiast or a casual drinker, understanding the origin and the people behind the harvest adds a meaningful layer to the overall coffee experience.
