Rise & Grind

Dark Chocolate. Spice. Nutty. Chewy.

Do you need some help being the best you? We've got you covered. 

Rise and grind is 50% Specialty Robusta/Canephora and 50% Specialty Arabica. The perfect blend to get you up and out and living your best life. Brought to you by producers, Nafeesa Esmail from Uganda and the team at Mio in Brazil. 

Robusta has been overlooked for far too long. It's about time it's recognised for its unique qualities and the opportunities it can bring producers. As climate change makes land increasingly unsuitable for growing arabica coffee, we may find ourselves drinking more and more Robusta, and with producers like Nafeesa growing tasty coffees like our Speciality Canephora, the future doesn't look so bleak. Grab a bag and buckle up!

Produced by Nafeesa Esmail and the team at Mio, Rise & Grind represents a classic expression of Brazilian coffee. Sourced from Brazil, this lot is roasted by Girls Who Grind Coffee to highlight a profile defined by dark chocolate, spice, and nutty undertones. While many specialty coffees are celebrated for bright acidity, traditional profiles from this region are often prized for their substantial body and comforting, dessert-like qualities.

When evaluating a coffee with these characteristics, drinkers often look for a "chewy" mouthfeel, a term frequently used to describe a dense, tactile experience on the palate. To better understand how these specific descriptors fit into the broader spectrum of coffee quality and sensory analysis, it is helpful to reference the flavor wheel. By grounding the tasting experience in these established categories, one can more clearly identify the nuances of the roast and the inherent qualities of the bean.
