With this range we want to focus on coffees that are affordable for a mainline espresso and put ethics front and centre, without holding them to the same quality bar that defines the rest of the range. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's always been a bug-bear of ours that speciality roasters will champion impact and social good, then only sweep in for 2 bags of the top microlot while leaving bulk production to the side, literally skimming the cream of the crop. We've been guilty of this at times since we started, and this espresso offers us the chance to make some amends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWe'll be focusing our sourcing on farms completing excellent ecological projects (regenerative agriculture, native forest protection and similar endeavours), alongside impact projects, and buying the bulk production from producers in our network, which is where we can really move the dial. What we're doing here is shifting our emphasis towards the extrinsic value of a coffee, the attributes that exist around it: who grew it, how the land is managed, and what it represents, rather than chasing intrinsic cup quality as the sole measure of what makes a coffee worth buying. To satisfy the trilemma, we're nominally trading quality for ethics, but by leaning into the additive flavours of a heavier roaster influence we can create a final outcome with a quality of its own, letting us buy deeper into the production of the farms with whom we work rather than just the top lots. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrilliant for milk, easier to extract, and a safe choice for those who want a syrupy bodied, low acidity, more traditional espresso.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe intend this to broadly be a single origin coffee, but future versions may also be blended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eVersion 2:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe selected this coffee to run as both a Facility component and Interval, as we get a handle on the volumes we need to buy and get the upstream pipeline rolling properly.
